How do you guys manipulate or tweak the relevance of your ads? For example the bulk of my websites density is myspace layouts. I have a link unit that is supposed to display 5 ads, but it displays 2. I don’t have anymore room for content, and I surely don't want to stuff add headings or paragraphs with text-indent and keywords. I usually stick to natural SEO tactics, and not stuffing etc... Any recommendations? I am targeting the myspace layouts keyword. So diluting it with other keywords isn’t really an option. What can I do?
Well with Adsense the ads displayed is largely effected by the written content on the pages. If you don't have text to work with, then the Adsense bot will have a hard time to display more ads. Do you have a link to your site? Perhaps after seeing it I'll be able to make some suggestions.
I have plenty of text to work with. Is it possible that google just doesnt have very many ads to serve in that catagory? What I was asking about more, is how you guys tweak ad relevence? Just change your density? I can understand that, but then again I am trying to target a specific number of keywords in SE's. So I can't really just change my density for more keywords because 1) I have no more room for content 2) I don't want to change the keywords im targeting. Crusader, I pm'd you the address?
Content doesn't seem to be your problem. The link unit showed 5 ads for me, but I guess that differs. There isn't really anything you can do to have the link unit display 5 ads consistantly. It all depends on the number of ads availabe as well as the country your visitor is viewing from.
Thanks. I usally read that people tweak their density to get better ads. While that does work, it also hurts rankings in SE's. If im targeting Myspace Layouts, and have 7% density, and all of sudden I re-arrange my content and have 3% density for myspace layouts and 4% density for myspace graphics....
