As far as the 3 adsense units per page, Google has developed technology which prevents the serving of multiple ads in those three ad units. Pretty cool, huh?

Good summary, Jen. Good news for multiple ads unit per page. Google's system will automatically recognize the additional ad units, and will serve unique ads to each. I'll experiment two ads units and see how it goes.

If you have 3 ad units can each one be its own channel?

Yes, it seems to allow it. I guess the test will be two days from now when we can check. I don't know why it wouldn't though - but there will probably be a request by publishers to up the number of channels again though ;)

To paraphrase another forum: Google allows three ad groups for adsense publishers; hilarity ensues.

Actually, I'd prefer to repeat the highest cpc/ctr ads.

You might prefer that, but they frown on having repeat ads.

Excellent work Jenstar, thanks for that. I'm off to have a look at my page formats and see if there is anywhere, where I can discreetly slide in a second adpanel. Not sure there is, quite honestly. What will Google do next to find more advertising estate? Build an application which bolts on to Acrobat Reader?

So - do the lower priority (lower on page) ad units contain the lower "value" / paying ads? How is the distribution of the ads decided across the page? Is the highest CPC the 1st ad position in the 1st ad box on the page?

I'm confused. Were 2 allowed earlier? Their wording always makes things harder to "get". Can the three ad units all be of the same layout? Or it has to be 3 different layouts? How is it reflected in the stats?

Looking at my stats it seems that if you have 3 ads per page they count as 3 impressions in google adsense. This should make getting into the premium program much easier!

Gosh, 3 units per page? Are you kidding me? Lets just tack on 3 ad units to all of our pages and maybe have 3 or 4 words so ads can be targeted. If I was an adword pub right now i would flip the switch to not allow my ads to be placed on content network sites. Google is trying to milk these ads as much as they can at the future expense of earnigs per click. Another bad move by google, who would have thought.........

Clark - yes, any ad sizes you wish. You can have all three being different. Do keep in mind that the first ad unit script that appears in the html source code gets first priority when it comes to doling out ads. Second ad unit in the source code gets second priority and so on.

I wonder if it will be context sensitive to the point that (3) ad blocks in three columns, each containing text about unrelated topics will result in ads related to those topics. It would be pretty neat for pages where you talk about, say; "West Coast Vineyards", "Best Restaurant in L.A." and "Malibu Real Estate". ...a kind of text proximity based serving.

<which is rather curious, since it would seem the publisher would not be able to control what ads are appearing>
Forgive me if this is a dumb question but do you think they mean you cant use 2 or more of the same ad units? Like 2 120x600s or 3 120x600s?

Ad Placement
Now says up to three ad units can be placed per page. It still says "Serving two or more identical ads on a single page constitutes double-serving, which Google does not support." which is rather curious, since it would seem the publisher would not be able to control what ads are appearing. |

Well as is the way with these things having experimented with multiple ad units (3) I can report Google is serving (Not me, as I have no control over this!) Repeat ads. What is the point of saying yes you can serve multiple ads then saying but they must not be identical when we have no control over the ads that are displayed, come on Google get a grip. Will someone please provide an authorative and unambiguous answer to this questions ideally Adsense advisor. Are we in breach of TOS if a repeat ad turns up? Thanks Jenstar Good job on the summary..

It makes no mention of using the itentical type of ad unit more than once as being a violation of anything. It just mentions the same ad not being allowed more than once, which is obviously something a publisher can't control. I wonder if the potential for running the same ads on a single page could happen if you have ad units in different frames on the same "page" a visitor would view.

Jenstar, Thankx for your post, you are doing a good job here for the Adsense publishing community. Maybe you could have a seperate website/forum on Adsense FAQs, on which you could earn by what else >> Adsense! <<>> Just my 2cents! Ok..now question here is: Suppose I have 3 adsense on my webpage & if a user would click on the most lower ad, then I would get less as to if, the user would have clicked on the topmost ad..right? Would then this discourage publishers to show 3 ads? As I understand, if my page is on blue-widgets, then the first ad would show the top 4 adwords advertisers, the 2nd ad would show the next 4, which is from 5 to 8 highest adword bidders & the last one would show 9 to 12th highest bidders. SO, if a visitor clicks on the last one I would obviously get less that the first. Your thoughts on this would be appreciated. regards, Prash.

It still says "Serving two or more identical ads on a single page constitutes double-serving, which Google does not support." which is rather curious, since it would seem the publisher would not be able to control what ads are appearing. In theory, you could use ads from two different AdSense account in the same page, so showing the same ads. This does constitute double-serving

Does three Ad Units mean, three sets of Ads? I mean, can I have Leaderboard, Skyscraper and Medium Rectangle on the same page? Please confirm. :) Thank you!

Jenstar, again, Well Done The double serving issue keeps coming up again and again in this thread. I too would be curious as to AA's interpretation. Nobody wants to run foul so it would help if this ambiguity (spotted in your initial post) is cleared up. Adsense Advisor?

I can't wait to see the stats... 2 ad boxes vs one, primary placement CTR changes after secondary at location2, location1, etc etc etc... Pretty soon we will see Ph.D's in AdSense

Unfortunately, yes, that will follow. Money is a big motivator and people here are making a lot of money with Adsense, many make more than they do with their day jobs.
