    Question all mighty DP people:

    1) Google had wonderful, targeted ads for 2 months for my sites, now I mostly (although it changes daily) get PSA's ie blogging ads etc..

    My title, content and links are all for my target audience, but it is a blog.
    if interested: http://paintlessdentremovalnews.blogspot.com

    ANy clue or ideas why google is serving crap ads that no one will even look at since they are not remotely related to the content>?

    Only thing I can think of is that google wants to eliminate adsense on blogs..I went from over 8% to less than 1%...

    Im about to drop them and go YPN or adbrite et al..

    HELP!

    ps- happy fathers day to all pops!

    ..thx for the replies guys, but:
    My ads are 75% down for this week- and that is because the ads have in large been PSA's...yes they go back to targeted ads (sometimes, and for a short period) but otherwise they have been PSA's for a majority of the time. CTR in the 1% range which is crap as you all know..

    Wish google could figure out their problem-
