Adlinks showing ads supposedly blocked by competitive ad filter

[david_uk]

Just implemented adlinks on a page after recent threads here. They do seem to work well on some pages. However, the pages of ads shown always display ads that I have blocked, and blocked for a REASON.

Has anyone else noticed this happening?

Any input on this point ASA?

Just tested an AdLink
the blocking seems to work.

Maybe the AdSense system is just slow today for your site.

It does take them a couple hours before the filter takes affect.

I know the filter take a while to take effect. One of the sites showing got blocked some weeks back. I'm going to let it settle for a few days then see if it's improved.

Sometimes they change the name of the site slightly. Add a dash, put some numbers in front of the name, or some numbers after the name... then the ads can get back into the rotation again. You have to then re-filter them.
