    Isn't it perfect example of google's relevant ads and exploitation of religious sentiments.

    I believe that sometimes google displays ads according to your search and browsing history. They also display adds according to location I believe.

    That might explain the bible ad

    Right on. People who go to JDate are either Jewish, converted to Christianity Jews or plain Christian. So... When they go that dating site, they have already browsed something Judeo / Christian related. Thus this ad.


    Or... it's the best, most paying, most relevant ad that AdSense could pull out.

    I don't know a huge amount of stuff about Adsense. But the stuff I said they do do right? Or was your answer sarcastic? Sorry I'm not sure lol.

    No, it wasn't sarcastic at all. I agreed with you. But I also added that sometimes the highest paying ad wins.

    I feel google adwords is just too time consuming and just a waste of money. It would be useful if you had an expert in adwords helping you. Very often i find ads that are irrelevent to me when I'm on any page on the net

    Google's ads on website also depend on your search history and the websites you have visited.

    It doesn't take into account the relevancy of the site the ad appears on, obviously.

    LOL, this is hilarious. The banner design is irritating too.
