Getting PSA's on home page for a few days now.

But I followed all the rules!

This is the fourth day I'm getting nothing but PSA's on my home page, and I can't figure it out. The site has been up for about four months, and this is the first time I've seen this. Not only have I followed the rules, but I'm not even close on any of them. I've got good, focused content, that changes daily. It's only my home page that gets the PSA's, all my other pages get good results. I did a new publish last night, and for a couple refreshes, I got good ad's, then back to the PSA's.

Any ideas?

Also, can I expect Google to respond to the e-mail request I made?

Thanks in advance for your ideas!

Interesting - I'm seeing the same. PSAs on the home pages, good targetting on all the inside pages. Do you have an RSS feed on your home page by any chance?

[DavidJohnny]

No RSS feeds. I do use SSI's on this page to bring in new content daily. But all the content is solid, and related to my topic, and it only makes up about 20% of the page. I think it started right at month-end, so maybe Google changed something. Hopefully they'll respond to my e-mail.

I regularly get the same problem. I have a "blog style" site, and every so often a new post (one that's overly text heavy or irrelevant) on the main page confuses the bot -- but my sub-pages remain relevant.

I guess it's a flaw in the blog style of site.

A few days of updates loaded with site-relevant terms usually gets my index page back on track...

The ad seemed to fix itself. I got a reply from Google saying they didn't see anything wrong. At the time they replied, and in the few hours since, it seems to be OK. So whatever it was, it self-corrected. It was out for three days, though. I'll just chalk it up to one of those mysterious "shouldn't happen" events!
