    About Section Targeting ...

    I know we could put it around relevant text on the page,
    but do we need to put the section tags around, lets say, a list of links,
    linked images etc, etc also ...

    These links/images can have keywords in anchor / alt text ...
    or will it be found anyway ??

    How many section tags are *optimal/max* and what is minmum amount of
    text I should tag?

    I.e. If I have several sections of text with some html code between, do I use
    one tag around it all, or is it better to use several section tags, one for
    each text section to avoid the html code ?????

    Is it needed/good to use the *ignore* option around all php/html code
    that's no need for google to check/see ...

    The site I try to improve is http://www.hotlib.com/articles

    Many of my articles doesn't show targeted ads. I checked it with
    Google Preview Tool and same there, but when I contact
    Google Support they say ads are targeted ... ?

    hmm, I mean ... As an example, this page about Fishing For Salmon
    show ads about Hair Style, Loose Weight etc... ???
    http://www.hotlib.com/articles/show.php?t=Fishing_For_Salmon

    Not sure what to do so now I want to try section targeting if it helps ...

    You don't need to avoid the HTML-code. Google is quite capable of doing that itself.
    I'd go with simple: what is relevant to the type of ads you want to show - put that between these codes:
    What's not relevant, probably your menu, perhaps some text related to hair style, put that between these codes:
    Then comes the hard part: wait for google to start using that information to optimize ads for that page. This may take a while.

    I personally find that using the code provided by kh7 does absolutely nothing, and I no longer use it. I find that Google can read the content of the pages without trouble.
