    If you have a site about women's health, you would probably have a lot of words like sex, pregnant etc. If google deems those as stop words, you will be getting a lot of PSA ads, what should you do??

    I'm sure if you have acceptable content on the page and correct use of title, meta desc tags etc you'll be fine.

    Of course you can tell google to show alternative url for ads or block of colour if Public Service Adverts (PSA) show on your site.

    my site is about vagina surgery, so i have sentense like "you can't have sex/intercourse for six week after the srugery". However, PSA show. After i remove the words sex, Ads come out agian.

    however, i remove the Adsense from that page since i have to keep the sentense. If you want, you can play some word game. I won't do it cause i rate my reader higher

    Explain that again? Why can't you say "you can't have intercourse" and leave out the word 'sex'? We women are not dumb.

    I think sam is more concern with the integrity of his article? I.e. he won't change it just to please Adsense.

    I understand Jack. But the word 'sex' does not lend itself to the integrity of his article. Most health sites do not use 'sex/intercourse' together when the word 'intercourse' would suffice.

    thanks for the link michael. it was new stuff for me and i would definitely implement it, though i still have to figure it how to use it in blogger.com because posts don't take html tags and not much point putting it in templates. but its great info.

    and yes- about the PSA ads, there is a link on the bottom of page suggested by Michael.. here is a direct link to same page for more info

    After reading sam's reply i tested whether a blog with words like sex would lead to PSA by filling a post with sex and like he said, there was no adsense ads, so better check ur keywords. (though its strange that both DP and one of my blogs have google ads even after having a sex-video related article. )

    Sex is one of the Stop Words, but it has to be used in combination with some other words, I think.

    Yeah, I think so.

    my website showed PSA for a month and I didn't know what's wrong. Then I changed something not sure what I did, but now the ads just come.

    Now my website still have the word sex and still show ads so I think it must combination with some keywords

    That list of probable stop words could be really useful. I can imagine loads of ways of using those words in regular contexts: "the line went dead", "the rubber had perished", "a stroke of luck", and so on.

    So writing with Adsense in mind will be a matter of using these kinds of words sparingly, and maybe finding new ways to describe things.

    When I first work on a travel site. I got PSA when I first put in Adsense and I have no idea why. Then I remove an articles where there are words such as las vegas, sonority etc. Well the ad appear normal 6 hours later and I am thinking of setting a health related site and I guess the same thing could happened again.

    Link for the travel site is in the signature.
