    I'm not sure if im breaking any TOS on my site. I picked three pages i think may be iffy.

    On the following page, i have ads right below the page title and beside the "table of contents" in the yellow box? Is this okay?
    http://www.php-learn-it.com/php_installation.html

    On this page, i have adsense beside the image
    http://www.php-learn-it.com/php_scripts/tell_a_friend_script.html

    On this page, i have adsense below the demo and download source links. Am i breaking the rule by leading people to think that the ads may site internal links? In my opinion i see this as clever ad placement but im not usre if im breaking TOS.

    Any thoughts?

    Thanks for the review guys.

    I also think my ads are blending pretty good with the content that why i was bit scared if i was breaking any rules.

    Any suggestion on how i can improve more?

    The ad targeting on the first page was way off-showing an ad about vinyl siding isn't going to get you clicks. I guess it happens because of the "Windows" content- filter that, because you'd rather have hosting/php script ads than anything about Windows, even the right Windows. BTW, you have a transposition misspelling on that page "Windwos."
    The others are okay, the topics are tech-related, but you'll have better CTR if you get more relevant ads to show.

    Some days ads targeted and other days they are way way off like "basement bathroom". I don't know how i can improve that? bring my targeted keywords closer to the ads?

    Can you filter by keywords like "window"?

    Thanks for pointing out the irrelevant ads. i filtered out the irrelevant ad using the filter feature in adsense.
