Why Are All of My Ads About Driving?

    I launched a new site two weeks ago about emergency medicine. All of the ads Google is showing are low paying garbage about driving: traffic school, roadside assistance, defensive driving, etc.

    What gives? "Traffic", "Driving" or similar terms appear nowhere on this site. Any clue as to why I'm getting such untargeted ads, and more importantly, how to fix it? I have many sites and have never had this problem before.

    What are your page titles?

    I had a similar problem before where I had a sports site with the word 'smoker' in the domain. I keep getting meat smoking ads. It was a blog and once I added a few posts, and a week or so went by the ads got targeted correctly.

    What is the URL of the site?

    No one can help without knowing the URL.

    You can always implement section targeting.

    You said you wanted medicine related ads but here are you highest frequency words.

    ambulance 23 9.50%
    company 14 5.79%
    service 14 5.79%
    need 11 4.55%

    The ads don't seem all that out of place to me. Think about the advertiser. What type of company would bid on those words? If you had more "accident" related words you might get some lawyers :D


    btw.. Your language pages have white text on a white background.
