Blocking keywords on Google Adsense

**losdev** · 12-02-09

Hi Guys

Been searching for a way to block certain keywords from the adsense panel such as if I sold mini's, I would want to block minis from the adsense results on my site.

Anyone know the solution to this please?

TIA

I think you'll struggle to do that, as google want their ads to reflect what the content is on the page and thats what advertisers are paying for.

Only solution I can think of is not showing google adsense on those pages

That is what I thought, just a shot in the dark

Thanks anyway

You could try section targeting to target copy unrelated to minis using the section targeting tags: https://www.google.com/adsense/suppo...n&answer=23168

You can also block the urls of sites advertising the minis in adsense: https://www.google.com/adsense/suppo...n&answer=44116

You can't literally block any ads from entering to your pages specially if you have that keyword written in your articles.

Alternately, you can filter which ads to come out on your site by using google adsense sandbox. Try to enter your keyword and you can see which possible ads are coming out on your pages if you optimize your articles with those keywords.

Had a fiddle with content statements and it seems to be playing ball much better now.

FYI, the 48 hours GA states for crawling and relevant ads is a tad optimistic, I saw a change after around 5 days.

HTH and thanks

If you are using free sites like blogger.com You can have the contents and keyword density to have your ads filtered as you desire. If you have your own hosted domain, you can play with the metas and the contents to ensure great ads coming out.
