Ads Not Targeted

Filed under: Adsense — Jan @ 10:37 am

I looked at my group home WP code and found that there was a list of the sites that were showing up on my adsense ads! I found it in the header and footer files.

I took down my ads and temporarily changed the blog too. Within a day my ads were targeted again! Of course changed my login info also. I will take the opportunity to look for a new blog design which I’ve been putting that off. It is SO sad and pathetic that someone is so desperate for internet income they need to steal a few quarters from me!

Targeted Ads with Adsense

Filed under: Adsense, Blogging, Writing — Jan @ 5:00 am

Well, now that I have time to check out my sites and blogs, I see why my income dropped from the ones that were bringing in some money. The ads aren’t targeted.

There are a lot of drug and credit cards ads up on my various blogs. The ones that didn’t have the last posts with the keywords are the ones that are suffering. I thought it was just my group home one, but I now see it is others also. I went back and quickly added some keywords to the last posts so that it can get targeted ads again. This will hold it over until I can get to posting again.

Last time when my computer crashed and I was waiting for another one, the income came in, though slow, because the last posts were good. This last month, income took a drop. With the small amounts I make, it is very noticeable.
