Is SEX bad???

Discussion in 'Placement / Reviews / Examples' started by geniosity, Feb 15, 2006.

    On the first page of my blog, I have a title "Sex Up Your Bedroom, eBay, and Other Stories". Since I put up that post, the ads on the site have been pretty damn arbitrary. I mean, what on earth does "Anger management" have to do with anything on the page?

    Has anybody else noticed if Google just doesn't enjoy Sex? The word, I mean...

    Here is a post with some typical ads:
    My water filter

    And here is the main page:
    Make a good house a GREAT home

    I don't see what your problem is?

    You have to appreciate that the title is a VERY powerfull thing. in fact 'sex up your bedroom can be read in many ways Apart from anything else it has the words sex & bedroom in it and up. WTF do you expect an algorithm to think?

    Sorry, but if your site is a vehicle for adwords revenue then you need to put more thought into titles etc.

    I'm not stressing, I was just curious... The title is supposed to get the reader's attention. I'm not expecting people to click ads on that post anyway. And, it'll be off the main page in a couple of days time.

    Hmmm. I was wondering about that. Guess us South Africans need all the anger management help we can get. :p

    Cool , I wasn't being critical it was just an observation. If your aim is to get readership then your doing it right. If your aim is for adwords rev then it needs thought

    Knew this kid while i was at Uconn, loved to have violent sex all the time. His girl was into it too(so she said to her friends). But this one time someone called the cops on him because it sounded (literally) like he was kicking the crap out of her.

    I guess those anger management ads are targetted to people like him?
