Thanks,
I just tried the section targeting technique, surprised I hadn’t heard of it before.

All good advice. I’m surprised that you didn’t mention manually applying a filter to any irrelevant ads that appear. Have to be careful when doing this – use the Preview Tool to get the URL of the ad target.

[...] In a blog posted at problogger.net, Darren Rowse expressed the same belief in this idea as well as his frustration that some ads from Google’s AdSense program are sometimes not related to the content of the site. The blog author stressed out that AdSense may have difficulty evaluating the content or focal theme of the site. However, with other ways to ensure relevancy of ads, there has been a remarkable change — improving the CTR’s more and placements of ads by Google’s AdSense.

One other area of importance seems to be the URL. When my sites blog url was sitename.com/blog/ I got many blog ads. Now that I have changed it to my topic, I get only public service ads on the blogs’ home page, indicating there are no ads for the homepage key words. Even with targeting the blog entries only.

If the user reads the single article page, the ads are relevant because those keywords are used in the url.
I will be changing the homepage url once again but I have to wonder what that does to prior search engine archives.

I’ve been using Section Targeting for a while and it works well. It is worth noting though, that whenever you update a blog template it can take awhile for things to settle back down once the AdSense bot has revisited your site!

Cool, I did not know about the section targeting. Though no link was supplied, I was able to find more information on it via a Google search.
