Section Targeting - Does it work?

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by andyj00, Aug 9, 2008.

    As I have not been getting relevant ads on one of my sites, I've used section targeting. I put it on 3 or 4 days ago but it doesnt make any difference to the ads :(. I've put around 200 words in the section targeting.

    So does this thing work, or do I have to wait longer?

    check your image name in your page ,

    i had one worst experience with that, my all page content was related to "computers" but one my image name was credit_card_logo.jpg then all my adsense ads was related credit cards ...!!

    you have to create new web page with new name and create new adsense code ( just for new channel ID ) after manage all your page "keyword"

    or use site authentication tool

    Thanks for that, I've had a look into that and changed images to add a keyword in them. Still made no difference.
    Maybe I'll have to leave it a bit longer for it to work. I think Google advises it can take up to a week for section targeting to work.

    Try to put the main keywords only inside the section targeting tags. You can find more info here: Section Targeting

    Another odd thing I've noticed is that when I'm developing and displaying my website locally, at home, I get different ads to my website when its on the 'net. Sometimes I get more relevant ads locally but other times I get PSA ads!!! Adsense just doesnt make sense sometimes!

    this wont take 1 week if you change URL too , i mean if your html page name "computer.html" change to "computer_online.html" or any... i think adsense bot cached that page thats why ads dont changing.
