All my sales are coming from content pages rather than search pages so i would like to ask that can i restrict my ads to be shown only in the content?

Sorry Vaib,

You must appear also on Google.com by default.

Your choices are:

1) Google.com only (both boxes unchecked)

2) Google.com and the Search Partner Network

3) Google.com and the Content Network

4) Google.com and Search and Content (both boxes checked)

A couple of interesting threads about workarounds:

Tell us what you think. I'm inclined to try this approach with a narrow test.

I am sure that I was able to set my campaigns to content only yesterday. Normally you can get away with a poor click-thru on the content side, but I get the impression the google search side must be doing ok to compensate. So just having content and a poor click-thru would I think be red flagged.

You can have content only if you choose image ads.

The only thing that counts for minimum required CTR (for text ads) is the CTR on Google itself.

You can try Site Targeting
[webmasterworld.com...]

Your ads will be displayed in the websites you select. Start off a low daily budget and check each site if possible. If your keyword is generic, you will end up with lots of junk websites.
