Need Advice in Regard to Adsense Adverts & Their Context

Discussion in 'Guidelines / Compliance' started by TeddyG, Apr 10, 2006.

    Would appreciate any advice that you may have based on experience..
    Here is the scenario:
    I own three web sites..
    One is a real estate site...which is for my own company and adsense
    adverts work their like a dream...(it is a mixture of HTML and PHP if
    that makes a difference)
    The second is an article submission site in PHP and the adverts there
    work like a dream as a well..Google picks up the context and sees
    changes etc. and feeds out really relevant adverts..
    So I have some experience with Adsense Adverts and their possibilities.

    The third site is New (open to public less than a week and perhaps this
    makes a difference though it didnt on the other sites.) This is a site
    devoted to Jewish Singles all over the world (PHP as well). The subject
    here is critical.
    Anyway during development when I placed the Google Adsense box to make
    sure all was okay (Leaderboard top of page) I noticed that Google was
    ONLY feeding me adverts from other Single sites. Okay, I have
    absolutely NOTHING against that and I don't need to filter them out.
    The problem was and IS that the ONLY adverts I AM GETTING ON THE SITE -
    THE ONLY ONES are for other Jewish single sites.

    Okay, I say cool, its in the context of the text. On the main page
    there is an opening box with text...and there is our welcome etc. So I
    rewrote the text...let me make this clear .. A LEGITIMATE REWRITE..but
    I did not use the term "Jewish Singles" Or "Singles" at all...

    Still didnt work..Okay..I say fine..I change the Meta tags to add more
    possiblities...like Kosher, Israel, Jewish Books etc. ALL WHICH ARE
    DEALT WITH ON THE SITE AS WELL..soooooo..no one can say I am trying to
    trick Google. Actually, I am really a stickler for doing things the
    Legit way according to Google's policies. (And Yes, I did submit a
    verified sitemap etc.)

    I am still ONLY getting adverts for Jewish Single sites. Again I think
    that is great, but since the revenue from this site is planned from
    Google etc. how many times can a user click on a another advert for
    another single site????????????????

    Google steadfastdly seems to be ignoring any keywords such as Kosher,
    Israel, Jewish Music, Jewish Books etc. all legit. keywords for the
    site...

    HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

    anyone have any ideas???????

    I don't understand. You have a Jewish singles site and you're getting Jewish singles ads. What is the problem? Please try to clarify, I simply don't understand your dilemma.

    The site is Yes for Jewish Singles...from all over the world...
    profiles etc. chatting...i am sure you know sites like this
    Since it is for Jewish Singles and their likes and dislikes etc.
    it is also for Books, music...the whole range..which is in the text..
    Google is ONLY feeding out adverts for other single sites..
    Now say, adverts about Israel, Jewish Books etc, which I know it has...
    In other words the ONLY text it seems to be reading is "Jewish Singles"
    and those words NO LONGER appear...we use Social Experience, Books, Profiles, chat etc...

    What I am used to getting from my other sites..say the Real Estate site..
    I NOT only get competitive Adverts which is fine, I get Travel to Israel, or Jewish Books or Jewish Singles or Tel Aviv Hotels..etc...
    That is what I expected here...plus the adverts for USA stuff and around the world...
    maybe I am off...but my other sites certainly don't behave in the same way...

    (and thanks for your help)

    Adsense is contextual (including to the domain name & path) so it's no surprise you're getting ads about Jewish Singles. Anyway, try section targeting which allows certain content to be targeted and other content to be ignored. It's not 100% perfect, though.
