What to do if ads are targeted incorrectly...

Help!

Just kidding but some advice would be great. It seems I am still living in the dark ages creating my websites in frontpage using tables etc. In an effort to modernize I have turned off the eight track of Journey, stopped using Frontpage and even installed Wordpress on a new domain for my brand new site that will make me millions I just know it. (Half way kidding on all the above)

You can view the wonderful piece of artwork (Plan Best Wedding) that took me a long time to figure out becuase it was all new and there is no nice WYSIWYG editor to hide all the scary code from me at.

I have managed to edit the a nice Looking wordpress template to add my four pictures for a better CTR etc. However in setting up the blog this is what I did. 1. Set up blog 2. Changed theme 3. Added Adsense code 4. Made subtle change to the graphics (added pictures above adsense code). Unfrotunetly I had this in the wrong order as I sould have added adsense last after adding some content.

Why you might ask? Or maybe not but I'll tell you anyway. Sometime in between step 3 and step four the adsense spider came and checked out my new baby. It went backand reported ohh this is a website about blogs! I then compelte step 4 and add some content about weddings becuase that is what the site is really about. Now when you go to the site to read the latest articles on wedding the main page displays adsense ads for RSS tools and get rich quick schemes or scams (depending on perspective).

SO what can I do? Before submitting the site in it's current state to everyone's directory and search for link partner it would be nice to know how to get the correct ads displayed. Do I have to start all over? I sure hope not.

Any ideas or suggesttions would be greatly apperciated. In the mean time Iw ill be searching around on google and here and see if there is anything. I have seen something about using adsense targeting and some kind of spider tags to have it target a spot on the page.

Anyway thanks in advance...

wait for some time and during that period add more content and it should be nice

 

From one dark age person to another. If you go to the adsense help pages and type "targeting" into the search box it will tell you how to put tags into the HTML to target certain areas of your page. Hopefully this will bring up some relevant ads for you. I'm still using FrontPage and only just getting into stylesheets.

 

Well one thing you can definitely try is to use section targeting. Section targeting will allow you to give certain sections of your pages more "weight" and show the Adsense bot that it's the important bits.
It takes quite a while to become effective though.

You can also try removing Adsense Ads for a couple of days and then adding them again. With luck this will cause the Adsense bot to visit your site again and focus on your actual content.
