Can some of you share the least of banned keywords. In my blog, when I used these banned keywords, adsense does not show up. I have no way of knowing which words are banned. I know a few which I'm going to share here. Share yours too.

Banned Keywords:

- gyrated
- topless (I can't use "topless" tupperware)
- naked
- nude
- death (I heard in some post "death" is banned too?)

What else? So i will try to avoid using them.

"Trauma". "Suicide". "Massacre". These are big ones.

I don't really think the presence any one of these words will automatically cause ads to not appear, but Google do have some kind of formula for determining when not to show ads.

gore -- in the context of "gory zombie movie"

Weirdly, I've had no issue with ads appearing on news articles and editorials discussing porn (in the context of bans and legal actions towards on adult material) however, even when keywords were included that I'd expect to cause a ban, because said editorials were a bit on the snarky and sarcastic side.

Ad targeting, however, was another issue entirely.

I have the words naked, nude, death, trauma, suicide, and beer on different pages on my website and Adsense appears just fine on them. Perhaps there is a site-related factor or contextual aspect to the banned keyword filter?
