Check to make sure that all your keyword are active. It tends to take from a few minutes to approx. 1 hr for me. Regards, Tony
Woodscs82, funnily enough the adsense ads running above your thread are for Google adwords. The ad claims 15 mins. I'd say you can beat that. So if your ads aren't showing after 24 hours there's a problem. Check to see whether you've had any impressions.
That's strange, because I have never had an ad take longer than a few minutes. Not really sure why yours took 24 hours!! I don't think I could be that patient.
