Thread: Adsense... it's driving me nuts!

    I am having no end of problems getting adsense to serve up accurate results on a framed site. Some of my pages are a little too general e.g. 120 widgets and their uses (strange how it's always widgets!)... er, anyhow, I want to focus more on a particular part of the page with my ads e.g widgets with the extra special sauce. Now this works fine if I create a page for adsense on its own but as soon as I build a framed site with a right hand column for the targeted adsense page they starting spewing generic ads for which I get no money and are obviously way off topic.

    I don't understand why its doing this as it says in the adsense FAQ's that you can use framed sites just make sure its the correct page using the code blah blah blah... Any ideas on what's going wrong or how to fix it? <img src=http://www.gamers-forums.com/smilies/contrib/ruinkai/biggthumpup.gif ALT=":thumb">

    Are you putting them on dynamic or static pages ?

    All on static pages. I have even tried *****s but that doesn't appear to have done the trick. Do you know if Google reviews pages by hand to see if they think they should serve ads of a particular content or is purely on the bot activity reading page text?

    Pretty much bot activity I believe, you might find some useful info here : www.webmasterworld.com/forum89/ it's the WMW Google Adsense forum.

    Think you'll have to register, but that's painless and you'll find a wealth of knowledge.

    I might have got this wrong, but how I read it you've got your widget site and then you have a frame serving ads down the side.

    As far as I know the google mediabot (or whatever its name is) that crawls pages to see their relevancy and then decides which ads to show will crawl the framed page which is going to show your ads and see no content. Which is why its displaying charity ads.

    The other frame with all your widget content shows google ads fine because it has content.

    To get round this id say don't use frames. If you have menus etc that need to be on every page its easy enough to do with SSI or php include.

    The frame setup you describe is correct however I have added content to the adsense page (right frame) so that it more accurately describes the content I wish to promote on the main frame page. If I look at the adsense frame on its own i.e. orphaned, it serves up the ads I want, however, if I look at it in the frameset it serves up a load of old tosh. There is something about the framset scenario that adsense can't get on with.

    No idea why its doing that, but would advise loosing the frameset and im sure quite a few will agree.

    1) Will fix your adsense problems.

    2) Improves search engine listings.

    3) Desired effect can be easily aquired using ssi includes and php includes.
