Why is GoogleAds showing up?

    Well this has been going on for about a week now.

    SMACK in the middle of the page the only Ad I get for this ad section is:

    "Google Ads or your site......"

    Why? Why is Google being greedy like that and not serving me up some relevant ads, the other 2 ad slots on the page are relevant except this one...

    URL is: http://pimpthisspace.net

    Thanks.

    yes, I saw that, but a relevant ad shows up like 1 / 100 impressions. click refresh a few times and see what I mean.

    If it makes you feel better, I sat there and refreshed 20 times, and the Google self-ad only showed up once.

    That does, just that almost EVERYtime I do it it shows "Google Ads......." on the middle ad (under the Layouts Graphic). It's still doing it. :\

    Just a thought, but maybe you should stop sitting around doing nothing but refreshing your site to see what ads show up. All those impressions you're wracking up is inflating your numbers, and Google won't like it when the majority of your impressions come from you and not your visitors. That could very well lead to some TOS violations. If you're having such difficult getting ads, I'd get rid of a block or two. Why do you need three blocks to begin with?

    I don't know if that is against TOS, but I did it.
