I have filtered out a zillion ads already, removed the word "blog" anywhere I could find it, keyed in on great keywords.....
Then suddenly about 3 weeks ago, all the ads are "Blog" related.
None of my other blogs are doing this, and on the same server to boot.

Anyone else have this problem?

The mediabot will only index about once a month. Check your logs - has the media partners bot been back to index those pages since you made the changes? If not, you will have about a week more to wait before they get reindexed.

Yes...it's been visited.
What leaves me flabbergasted is that it just suddenly happened out of the blue!
I was getting the right kind of widgets represented for my content, then "poof".

No changes.....but I'll be sending an Email to G if it doesn't change to relevant ads soon.
It's got me thinking that maybe some visitors were clicking on Blog ads to see what one is, or to create one...whatever...and maybe G sees that as successful for them?

note that some blog related words also caused the blog ads, example: trackback, ping, etc. Also, check your URL and page title.

Yup, someone wished someone else a happy birthday on my forum, now all the ads in the general section are for birthday related ads. :(
