Google_Hints command in code

    If you look at a site like www.megaupload.com and look at thier adsense code, they have a line like this:

    google_hints = "webhosting, music, movies, download";

    I'm not sure if they are making this up, or if it might be something they are granted from Goog. Anyone know what's up with this?

    James, If you check their alexa rank it's below 1000, so most likely they are getting enough traffic to qualify as a premium publisher with adsense. Premium publishers get to do a lot more customization of ads and code than regular publishers.

    Maybe for premium accounts. But for regular publishers, please don't forget that any alteration of the code is strictly prohibited.

    Some regulars get it, but it is by permission only to solve specific targeting issues.
