I have had my blog created for about 3 days, and I posted about 6-7 articles, but all that is showing up is the public service ads. How long does it usually take? I have had a few hundred hits in the last few days, but still no ads.
You can remove the public service ads by customizing the URL that will show up in Google adsense. You can find it during the setup process.
PSA gets taken care of by itself over time. usually within 24-48 hours. but if you added the code 3 days ago and still see PSA, then make sure you have enough content on your site
Even if we say YES will you stop delivering content? - Guess not. So move on, work on some more content and maybe faster than you expect the ads may be showing
I checked google webmaster tools, and my site has been indexed. I guess I will just keep writing content and see what happens.
Day 4, still nothing but public service ads. Mah! How does my blog look in your guy's honest opinion? Too old school?
I've had one of my blogs in googles index for a few days and it still showed up with PSA ads. You need to check to see how many pages are indexed. At the time google only had one page indexed, I don't think that gave it enough information. A couple days later it showed all my pages in the index and then I started to see real ads appear. Just be patient and keep posting.
I only have 7 pages indexed, but I have about 12-13 articles now. Hopefully this gets straightened out.
