Trick to make adsense more relevant

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by mehere, Apr 27, 2005.

    I discoverd a weird thing with adsense....most of my site has irrelevant ads on all the pages. However, when I hyperlink a page to another one on my site, on the new page all the ads are super-relevant! down to the letter!! Anybody have any idea why?? :confused:

    Adsense seems to like links - I too found irrelevant ads on my site untill I got some links in there.

    I think he meant using <a href="..."></a> on his page!

    If you don't have many pages, do you think anchoring to the same page helps?

    <a href="#">keyword focus</a>

    ?

    What I meant was placing a hyperlink on one page...then when I click on that hyperlink, which is linked to another page, the new page I go to has extremely relevant ads. However, by just browsing to that page using site navigation, the ads are not relevant.

    w3c validation also plays an important role. I'm getting highly relevant ads on a w3c html valid site.

    use this link : http://validator.w3.org/

    The site gives info on what you have to modify on your page to become html valid.

    Hope that helps.

    i think maybe hes refering to having key words in the url...

    I was playing around with a site for ringtones and wrote a script called rings.php

    the funny thing was I got nothing but ads for diamond rings on my website even tho that was the only thing with the word "rings" was the url.

    That's true, More the number of links on a keyword "x", there is a greater probability of ads relavent to "x" appearing...

    it doesn't. the google media bot doesn't care if the html is correct, it cares about the content on the page so it knows what ads to serve.

    best way to get targeted ads is to have enough good content that the bot knows what to put there.

    to get relevent ads showing on a page...get a link to it...from a different site.

    which is great, unless you are verging on 30K pages, by which time you will have 30K links...and be pr8 ;)

    If you get a lot of links to a page, you can alter what ads adsense will show on it. If a page has only a few links, ads might not be so good, but if you get more of them, the ads will be congruant to the anchor text of incoming links.
