PSA's

What is going on?

I worked on a new site in a directory similar to my main site say xyz/new where old one is xyz/old.

The top page of the new site apparently had a "stop" word or two - or at least I think. Nothing really strange there, but I played around and the ads started again. (The words were something like war or destroy, totally tangental to the site, but part of a paragraph I had written).

Well about 3 hours later I started working again and suddenly no matter what I do - even strip out all the content and put something completely different in anything in xyz/new gets PSA's.

All the pages in xyz/old work fine. But for a test, I edited xyz/old/page100 and changed a skyscraper aspect ration - and reloaded it - and PSA's?

Does google now think that everything under xyz is troublesome? Has something changed in the past 24 hours with PSAs?

Thanks, I am in a state of panic here...

Has the mediapartners bot been by for a visit on those pages since you made the changes?

Yes, it was forced by the ad aspect ration change...

But - I just put some of the "offending" pages up on a totally different server - and they work perfectly, with ads...

- could my 200 or so page refreshes have triggered some sort of lockout to my primary server/directory?

I am at a loss here...

On a different but related note, I'd urge you to take advantage of the alternate ad page feature so that if Adsense ads aren't being served, the default will be something that benefits you rather than one of Google's PSA choices.

To add to the mystery, taking the new webpage that triggered the PSA's - and putting them on a different server - the page worked perfectly, with ads.

FYI there is no, positively no objectionable or questionable material on my site - I've checked the source, etc. to be sure that I have not been broken into or something.

Thanks again for your help!

BTW - when the pages moved to a different server - the ads are totally out of whack...

A page that always had POSER5 or BRYCE ads now gets ads for Car Washing Systems.

Very strange, some of the new pages are now working again... Looks like maybe some strange glitch with the Google bot...

What are the chances of that happening? :)
