HELP: Lots of the Adsense on my Index are in German :(

Discussion in 'Placement / Reviews / Examples' started by COUME, Jun 1, 2006.

    Hello,

    On the index of my MythTV site, I have 3 lines in foreign languages (1 in German, 1 in French and 1 in Spanish)...

    As a result, I have far too often Ads in German or in French :( Is there a way to avoid that like to hide the forein texts from the Adsense spider or ???

    Thanks in advance for any tips because I really do not see what to do to solve that except removing the lines in German, French, Spanish...

    Regards,
    Ludovic

    I don't see any German ads on your page, but you can set the prefered language in your adsense account ;)

    Note: Your ads is blended in very nice

    Erm, interesting :/

    The language is already set to english in the adsense setup.
    I checked again and I can see 7 in German out of 9! Erm, why are you seeing ads in English correctly and I am not :(

    I need to investigate this!

    Cheers,
    Ludo

    i don't know whether meta tags have an impact on google ads, but you can try.

    <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Language" content="en">

    see this site for your specific need :)

    ok, I think I got the answer...

    I am working in the UK, but I discovered that our proxy is located in Germany... so I guess that the Adsense believes that I am German and therefore are showing me German Ads.

    Does this sound realistic?

    Cheers,
    Ludo
