When I used to allow targeted ads I got some that were really unrelated to my topic. I'm wondering about trying again if I can be sure I can reject ads that don't fit.

I think you can do that in the Ad Review Center - I had a bunch of image ads that were taking over one of my spots, and I banned 'em there. It's a tab under AdSense Setup; I don't think you see if it you're not opted in to site placement ads, but I'm not sure about that.

The Ad Review Center is a publisher tool that enables you to review placement-targeted ads that may appear on your pages. The tool provides publishers with more transparency and control over placement-targeted ads appearing on their sites. You can allow or block individual ad groups and advertisers, as well as filter ads by type: text or image.

Thanks, that makes all the difference. I'd opted out of site targeting because I don't have time to constantly look at all my pages for ads that aren't right for my site. If I can see them in one place I can accept or refuse them easily.

ASA

If you have opted out of CPM ads (by emailing Adsense) you will NOT be able to use the Ad Review Center, EVEN THOUGH, your site may be targeted, with placement targeted ads.

If you follow the help instructions for the Ad Review Center you still do not find the option. The HELP should mention this restriction.

How do I opt in to the Ad Review Center? [google.com]

1. Under the AdSense Setup tab, visit the Competitive Ad Filter page.
2. On that page, you'll see a green notification box. Click the Ad Review Center link.

Nope still no "green notification box" even though I've seen many "placement targeted ads" in my stats that I'd like to review.
