Google Adsense X Dragonfly :: Archived

Smell · Newbie Offline Joined: Dec 07, 2005 Posts: 12

Hy there!

I'd been taking a look at the search in this forum, and i realized that google adsense displays a cpgnuke related content rather than your page content. Well, my account's just been accepted now and i've figured out that it's true... Sad

So, is there already a way to fix that up?

Txs a lot! Wink

perhaps a link to your website?

did you edit the meta.php to your own keywords and descriptions?
how much content is on the site? I had one site that had great adsense relativity and clickthrough.

You need to edit includes/meta.php, where you can add additional module descriptions and keywords, and also edit the default settings near the bottom of the file - just make sure you use a utf-8 compliant editor with appropriate settings.

Txs for your answers brovs! Very Happy

I haven't made any change in that file... now i changed every "keywords" value by using php editor 2.21. Then i uploaded to the folder includes and cleaned the cache, it didn't make any difference. Should i wait some hours maybe? Confused

My site is this one. Laughing

You cannot see the adsense yet, i've set it up only for admins so that i can test it bofore setting online for all. Razz

Btw txs a lot! i thought i was gonna have to get a job to afford my host... hehee Laughing

what kind of adds do you want on your website ?

For example you could use the following in .htaccess

Code::

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "Mediapartners-Google" [NC]
RewriteRule ^.*$ /google.txt [L]

and put in google.txt the words where you want adds for like

Code::

musical paintings software

you can also add this to the standard adsense script

google_hints = "keywords"

Hyê!

DJMaze, i wanna add to my site anouncements like "olsen twins, mary kate olsen, ashley olsen". Then i created a file "google.txt" as you said with the content:

Code::

olsen twins mary kate olsen ashley olsen

I sent it to my "public_html". I made those changes in the .htaccess and didn't work either...

Head-e, i did it too, still not working...

Txs again for trying fellows! Very Happy

I donno if it helps, but here is the code of the block: (google_ad_client edited)

Code::

<?php
if (!defined('CPG_NUKE')) { exit; }
?>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
google_hints = "keywords"
google_ad_client = "pub-66949996929XXXXXX";
google_ad_width = 120;
google_ad_height = 600;
google_ad_format = "120x600_as";
google_ad_type = "text_image";
google_ad_channel ="";
google_color_border = "DFF2FD";
google_color_bg = "DFF2FD";
google_color_link = "0000CC";
google_color_url = "008000";
google_color_text = "000000";
// -->
</script>
<?php
$content .= "<center><script language=\"JavaScript\" src=\"http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js\">";
$content .= "</script></center>";
?>

but if all you have for content is your google ads, of course its gonna pull info from the core... Try modifying your ads into a populated forum or weblinks or downloads module.. you will see targeted results.

hehe that's tru Head-e, there's still a lack of content in my page. But i'm gonna solve that soon. Very Happy

I think it's working now! Smile

I took a look at some other fan sites that also use adsense and figured out that their metatags use names like fan pages of other stars, make-up, teen content... so what did i do? "Michael Jackson, Avril Lavigne, Hillary Duff..." Big grin

hehehe

Txs all!

Great tips, thanx Very Happy

be advised using the google_hints is against the TOS "you cannot modify the code in any way" and google will ban your site if you use it. Make sure you read the TOS very carefully and follow it to the "T" or they will diabled your account and even take $$ back to refund back to the publishers.

The best way to get relevant ADS is your meta data and content.

DJMaze that .htaccess code is interesting, can you describe exactly what it is doing for me?

thanks

DJ Maze · Posted: Fri Sep 28, 2007 3:21 pm Post subject: Re: Google Adsense X Dragonfly

Code::

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "Mediapartners-Google" [NC]

Check if the 'user-agent' header that is send by the client contains "string".

Code::

RewriteRule ^.*$ /google.txt [L]

If so then open for all requests google.txt

One can also use Google Ad Section Targeting to get ads relevant to your content.

For example if you publish a story through news module what you could do is add

before the start of your story
and

after the end of your story.

You can read more about it here...
www.google.com/adsense...swer=23168

Btw I also had a question in mind...
Is it possible to show google ad using div by text wrapping it in the first post of every thread like this webmaster has done here for example...
forums.megagames.com/f...hp?t=52770

Remember to disable the GoogleAds when you test your site. You do not want to generate new ads each time you click to see if your content is OK. What I do is something like:

if (!is_admin()) {
googleAds();
}

That way when I am logged in as an Admin, I never get the ads.
