    I'm having a problem where AdSense isn't getting any sensible ads for my site if I use www.ps3blog.net. See:

    http://www.digitalpoint.com/tools/adsense-sandbox/?url=www.ps3blog.net"]http://www.digitalpoint.com/tools/adsense-sandbox/?url=www.ps3blog.net

    But if I use www.ps3blog.net/index.php instead I get great ads:

    http://www.digitalpoint.com/tools/adsense-sandbox/?url=www.ps3blog.net%2Findex.php"]http://www.digitalpoint.com/tools/adsense-sandbox/?url=www.ps3blog.net%2Findex.php

    Why is that? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

    I've seen this before...not usually a lot you can do about it. Sometimes it's only for a day, but I've seen it go on for weeks like that. Some things you can try. Change the ad format to a different layout. Change the text on the page around enough to force media bot to reanalyze the page.

    You could set say index.htm as default document, then redirect that page to index.php. I know this will not fix it, but it will show the right ads to all visitors in for the time being.

    Good luck :|
