I'm no fan of blocking urls, but I just used the preview tool to take a look at the ads available for some of my pages.

YIKES! Talk about discouraging.

I looked at 5 pages.

Overall 2 out of every 3 of the ads showing as available were trash, and got blocked.

Most of those appeared to be PPC directories. A couple were loosely related to my topic, but not close enough. And a couple of the seemingly reasonably targeted ads went to landing pages that never opened.

That's downright scary, and can't be good for threputation of my site. Now I'm wondering what's showing on the other nearly 1,500 pages.... sigh.
