    I am using joomla as my cms and have installed a module that allows adsense to be placed in the content.

    When I go to my address www.pnwimages.com the ads are not related to my website but if I then click on the home button the ads are related.

    Any idea how I can fix this?

    Have you given it some time?,a few refreshes and leave it for 30 mins

    edit I see all your getting are rss ads, sorry I dont have experience with joomla, I dont think u can use sponsors for the adsense header,TOS.

    Are you using targets to tell AdSense where to look for content? They can help majorly (but don't abuse them!)

    How long have you been using AdSense on that particular domain name?

    It seems to be focusing on the sidebar content titles and not the content on first load. I can click refresh and it doesn't change but if I click on the "Home" button all the content is the same but the ads are related.

    I just changed my redirect to load /joomla/index.php instead of just going to /joomla and that seemed to fix things.

    I just hope the search engines don't go bonkers now...

    Wow, that's funny that it made the difference.

    The search engines will figure it out very quickly, especially if you don't have a lot of backlinks to the old address. I don't think you have to worry!

    All my links just point to www.pnwimages.com and now that just does a 301 redirect.
