    My website, www.runmylife.d4a.com , has Chips ads on the main page. My website has NOTHING to do with chips.

    What should I do?

    If the site is new, and if Google hasn't indexed you yet (do you show up in their SERPs?), you won't get relevant ads. Even if you show up in the SERPs, Googlebot has to visit your site daily for you to get continuously relevant ads.

    Although if I were you, I'd worry more about getting traffic to the site than slapping on Adsense ads everywhere. That page of yours has 3 Adsense banners and 1 ad link but barely any content. Seriously, who is going to click on those ads if no one goes to your site?

    Classic noob mistake. You're putting the cart before the horse, as it were.

    Actually, I've reveived 4,000+ hits in the first week, and generated about $32.00. I think that's great for the first week.

    I guess this shows how important placement and relation is. I am getting 7,000 a week with about $6.

    That is pretty good pistons125... It does take time for things to get worked out with the search engine bots. If you don't have a whole lot of content on the site, it also makes it a little harder for the bots to work with.

    good idea for a website.

    couple of things - you do have chips mentioned couple of times
    plus, that text on the end of each video... not good.

    Those are very impressive figures, both the hits (page views I presume) and the $32 (especially considering your ads are not relevant). If I had 4000 page views, I would be making close to $1000 based on clickthrough rate, but my page views are a fraction of what you are getting (I can only drea,). One thing I can't fault Google is that they provide me with incredibly related ads. I am not surprised as to why so many people click on them.

    I don't get a huge number of clicks myself, but in general, I can I understand why so many click on them when they are extremely related to the content.
