In the AdSense control panel,
Under the "Allow and Block Ads" heading,
the 5th tab over is
"Ad Serving",
which offers these three subheadings -
User-Based Ads Interest-based ads - Checked.
Third party ads - - Checked.
Social ads - - - - Checked.
Text ads Enhanced text ads - Checked(crossed-out) BLOCKED.
Display ads Similar sized display ads - Blocked.
Enhanced display ads - Blocked.
Animated display ads - Blocked.
Expandable ads - - - - Blocked.
VPAID ads - - - - - - Blocked.
I have added the items that I have checked, and the items that I have blocked. I have done this based upon my observations regarding the ever-changing AdSense ad landscape.
Do you agree or disagree with my choices?
Please say why.
Thank you for your time and opinion.
Why am I doing this? In EVERY SINGLE CASE, whenever I take advice from AdSense, I lose money. Going with the program in every case does NOT necessarily mean that you will make more money.
In many places, AdSense says "...doing blah-blah MAY increase your revenue". In every case, it could just as well read "MAY NOT", and the statement would be just as accurate. EACH individual must determine the "truthiness" of AdSense declarations, as applied to themselves. Extreme diligence toward your website is no longer sufficient. It is now apparent to me that everything must be questioned, regarding your particular website.
