Hi,
I have a site which, of necessity, has the phrase "Conversion Rate" and the names of a few major currencies on the front (a stat tool), but AdSense has gotten the idea that this means it's to do with currency exchange, and refuses to show any other ads (just on this particular page). Anything I can do about this?

Use images instead of text for the off-topic stuff?

Urgh, I'd prefer to avoid that if at all possible; as it is the site has NO images (though there will be a tiny one for use in graph bars) and I'd prefer to keep it that way. I did try reducing the offending phrases in the index, without much luck

Did mediabot respider the page after you made the changes? It might take a month or longer for it to come back and re-index a page. You can trigger a visit by changing the ad size, wait for the mediabot visit, then change it back again.

I have our address on homepage. I started getting local real estate, mortgages and dating services ads. This is not relevant to our website content at all. Filtering URLs was not effective.

I changed our address to image and changed the size of ads. I started getting relevant ads instantly. Thanks everyone for the tips.
