I just send an email to AdSense support regarding this problem, hope members in DP can help me too. I have a problem with my ads and it is hurting my CTR very much. The banner and medium rectangle in my blog is empty without showing any ads, not even public service ads. This is weird because some of my content is short and they will show ads for example: http://www.kahsoon.com/2005/08/18/helo-thunder-helicopter/ But most of the other entries appear to have empty banner and medium rectangle for example: http://www.kahsoon.com/2005/08/26/lindsay-lohan-in-harry-potter/ Why is it not showing any ads at all? Even public service ads. Hope to hear from you soon, thank you. http://www.kahsoon.com
That's how AdSense is sometimes, give the bots some time to crawl your site and soon ads will be appearing.
But this problem have been quite a while, my ads space appear to be empty for few weeks and last time there is ads in them, even public ads. But why now it appears blank?
for example this entry in my blog. http://www.kahsoon.com/2005/08/25/house-mini-golf/ It should be golf related ads in the page right? since the content is there and the keyword golf is there? If you say the problem is because i don't have enough content, but look at this: http://www.kahsoon.com/2005/08/18/helo-thunder-helicopter/ Why this content is short yet the ads appear? And look at this: http://www.kahsoon.com/2005/07/11/skateboarder-takes-great-leap-over-great-wall/ Why this content is long yet the ads doesn't appear? Please help me.
I see golf ads. At the bottom of your page you have an error: in /usr/home/kahsoon/public_html/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 155 Warning: mysql_affected_rows(): A link to the server could not be established in /usr/home/kahsoon/public_html/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 155
Im not tricking people to visit my site, but which ads u guys are talking about? Im talking about banner and middle rectangle in this entry http://www.kahsoon.com/2005/08/25/house-mini-golf/ The ads space before and after the middle content seems to be empty??
Second and third ad units on a new page (or on a page you just add the second/third ad units to) often take up to a couple of days to show targeted ads. Not sure why this is, but it often happens to publishers. Second and third ad units do not show PSAs if there are no ads to display. Instead, they will show a blank space if you do not specify an alternate URL or have the collapsing ad unit script installed. Second and third ad units are the second and third ones that appear in your HTML code. AdSense gives preference to ad units based upon what appears first in the HTML. It could also be a geotargeting issue, there might not be enough ads for your geolocation to fill all the ad units. The preview tool can help you check for ads in different locations, such as the US.
Hello Jenstar, i dont understand what you mean by second and third ads, i did a test based on this problem, look at it: http://www.kahsoon.com/2005/08/29/mimoco-usb-robots/ http://www.shinyshiny.tv/2005/08/mimoco_usb_robo.html Both have same content but why mine have empty large rectangle? Any way to solve this?
