Hi can anyone please confirm that users from different countries will be seeing different ads or same ads across different countries when using adsense?

The issue I have is that other sites with adsense and similar topic as mine are seeing localized ads while when I visit my own site I see ads that are related but they are more relevant to another country.

thanks, born2run

Besides geotargetting, does location of your webhost server matter as well?

ads are geotargetted as different advertisres want to show ads only to particular area visitors so you see different ads and others see different ads

Depends on what the advertiser chooses. On my UK based website, if I use the Adsense preview tool to scroll through what is being targetted for where, it's clear that some advertisers choose to advertise globally, some over a fairly wide area (Western Europe EG) and some choose to advertise just locally.

log into your adsense account first, then go to
[google.com...]
halfway down the left of the page there is a link to it.
