More AdSense tomfoolery

February 2, 2008 · Filed Under Gringo observations

This site has AdSense. It is actually showing ads. No one is clicking on ads on this site. I have three sites that make me a fair enough amount on AdSense. All three of them are showing PSAs instead of ads. This little Google tomfoolery started mid-January. I thought it might fix itself. Instead more and more of my sites are now showing PSAs.

So, I headed over to the AdSense Google Group.

Apparently, I am not the only person experiencing this little issue. Loads of others are too. One person said it was because they had not done that silly little phone verification. So, I did that. One person said it was because they had not entered their PIN. I did that way back. And one person was told that they did not have enough text on the page.

I’d like to officially call shenanigans on Google’s tomfoolery and having only PSAs show up in my AdSense blocks on my biggest money-making sites.

And I also took a chance and emailed them about it. I didn’t want to do it. I’ve heard the horror stories. Now I fully expect to have the account closed. It only makes sense since I am close to payout.

Oh Google, you wankers!
