Recently I change the hosting server for the site but due to some configuration problem switchback the previous hosting server. Now google adsense are coming blank in certain posts, even sidebar add is not coming also for certain post. I shocked to see this strange problem. What is the reason I dont know. Please give me some idea how to solve this issue,

If it's just on certain posts it could be that you have "Stop Words" in the url, title or post wording.

(I assume you mean blank ads)

First of all, did you look at the source code and make sure the ad code is actually there?

Second of all, as jpch says, there may be a stop word.

Can you please inspect the element where the ad would be and link the code here?

It's possible it's a temporary issue.

If your site is less than 6 months old, you will continue to experience this type of problems.

Did you change anything about the layout of the site that would cause the placement of the ads to be different? If you're trying to put an ad in a space that's too small for the ad because of less available space for some reason, it may not serve an ad (essentially an unmatched request). I noticed this awhile back when my sidebar was too narrow for tablets. The number of unmatched requests starting going up significantly even though at times, ads were being served to tablets. Just less available ads in the needed size I think. Just another angle to look at.

I'll just ad this link rather than getting redundant as I had an issue yesterday that resulted in ads not loading and it could be related to your issue.

First of all thanks to all for quick reply.

My site is <snip>

jpch, dont find an stop words in url, pls see the url for example, <snip>

netmeg, code is there becuase i used quick adsense plugin for showing add in every post.

Castielle101, could you please tell me more details? I could not understand.

jbayabas, my site is more then two years old.

webcentric, I am using quick adsense plugin,recently i have deactived and then activate the plugin. Many post are ok but few are not working like, <snip>, in this post header and sidebar adds are not displaying.

Now please tell me what to do, how to solve this issue.

Thanking in advance

Right click on the space of your screen where the ad should be when it's blank. Click inspect element. Copy the code you see on the screen and post it here so I can see what it looks like. Do not worry if it looks illegible or has weird symbols, just copy as much as you can so we can debug it.

You can post the AdSense code but DO NOT include your publisher ID, nothing specific or personal.

If your ads are appearing on some pages but not all, it could be a technical problem. I don't know that plugin, but maybe there is a conflict with something else on the page. You could also ask your host.

If it's going blank on ALL pages, then if you are eligible for AdSense Support, put a request in with them.

But please stop posting specifics in the threads here.

Nothing looks wrong with your code that I can see. Since you use Double Click it's possible that you have met caps for the day or some settings are incorrect.

What about the fact that it contains a publisher id?

@Castielle101 -- please stop encouraging people to do things that are clearly detrimental to their own best interests. You might also want to read this forum's charter which clearly states

Posting AdSense code: We occasionally post parts of an AdSense javascript. Always remove the publisher's ID from the code before posting.

Sorry, but a user's security-needs are always immediate. This conversation got out of hand and needed to be addressed. And all of it could have been avoided by simply reading the charter (or my notice to be careful what you post here). I could see it coming before it happened. Please read the charter.

Oh, and all the code sharing can also be done via PM if you really want to disclose sensitive business details to people you probably don't know.

@ResultDB -- You don't need to show us your site or post your Adsense script to describe the problem. Ads not showing up can be caused by a variety of things. People here are trying to point you at possible causes.

If the Adsense code is viewable when viewing the page's source, then the problem is probably not the code (unless you've somehow hidden the ad with CSS).

Small spaces, get less competition for ads so a relevant piece of information might be "what size and type of ad unit are you using and is there enough space provided for it?" I purposefully didn't go to your site and purposefully only looked for a publisher id in your posting because posting that kind of information was your biggest problem in this thread from the start.

Now that that's clear, information that could be relevant includes whether or not your using responsive design and/or responsive ads, synchronous vs asynchronous ads, size and type of ads, html version, etc.

Frankly, the plugin could easily be the root cause but I also pointed out that other scripts on the page could be interfering (based on the fact that exactly that happened to me yesterday with a Pinterest script).

So, I'm not expert on your specific problem but I troubleshoot code on a daily basis and I know how to get to the root of things generally. Take it for what it's worth and understand that the questions and suggestions are about helping you get to the root of the problem. If the answer was simple, you'd probably already know the cause.

Never share your URL with strangers, whether at WebmasterWorld or any other forum. Some strangers are your competitors. Some strangers are trolls who enjoy causing bad things to happen to those they dislike. It has happened before in this forum that those who shared their URLs with strangers, either on the forum or in private, have become banned by permanently banned by AdSense.

Good luck.

Many will take your publisher ID and click bomb your site right out of AdSense and think it's funny.

Beware.

When dpammers come to WebmasterWorld, and leave a link to their site, I will check it out. If I find Adsense violations or copyright violations, I will report them... just like that idiot the other day who posted a link to his site that was allowing people to download the latest XMen movie. I contacted 21st Century Fox, and now it is in their hands.

If that makes me a troll, then so be it. If the spammer cannot be bothered to read the WebmasterWorld TOS, or doesn't have an ounce of common sense, then it's their fault. I will still sleep well at night.

I don't see anything wrong with that. On the other hand, I'm not interested in picking up malware or a virus because I followed a link off of here either (and yes, I have plenty of protection, the best of which is to avoid contagious sites in the first place).

Malware, Trojans etc. do not bother me. I used to collect them at one time. I report a lot, even to WebmasterWorld mods. I am probably their top reporter <g>.

I saw ResultBD's site before I reported it to WebmasterWorld, and will not say what I think of it.
