Blog and Google

rj · Post by rj » Thu Apr 12, 2007 5:21 pm

I have a couple blocks of ADSENSE up on the blog.
When in any CATEGORY they both adjust to content.
When in ALL CATEGORIES they do not. They go Generic.
This isnt so much about ADSENSE but how Google Search is seeing the blog.
It seems it is not able to BOT the whole thing at once or something.

Anyone know what is going on with this?

Thanx

RJ

Hi!

I believe you can edit your entries.tpl template and set/add some HTML comment fields to indicate where content is shown and where not, to give google a hint where it should look for related content. You need to search the google adsense docs for those HTML tags.

It's an issue of Google, not the plugin or s9y itself, so you might want to check their FAQ to see how they index content.

HTH,
Garvin

Hi,

Agree with Garvin, you can use "Section Targeting" to make your Google Ads relevant and profitable

.

Section targeting allows you to suggest sections of your text and HTML content that you'd like us to emphasize or downplay when matching ads to your site's content. By providing us with your suggestions, you can assist us in improving your ad targeting. We recommend that only those familiar with HTML attempt to implement section targeting.

To implement section targeting, you'll need to add a set of special HTML comment tags to your code. These tags will mark the beginning and end of whichever section(s) you'd like to emphasize or de-emphasize for ad targeting.

See a detail description about section targeting and how to implement it from this link :

Best Regards,

Vavai

Thanx, I got it...




I understand it...

If all I want is to have adsense read the entire blog, where would I put those two commands? In what file, in what context?

This is something central to my troubles.

In forums and faqs I often see and understand the code, but placing it or naming it or what to do if its a blog rather than a website and I wonder how it is applied to Serendipity specific, and I get lost...

entries.tpl

So that is where I also put the google blogsearch API code?

What if I wanted to include sidebars nuggets and entries, where would that go? If I had javascript and Flash in both nuggets and entries, where would I put the <.js> and <swf> pointers? On my website its called <head>.

Hi!

Yes, entries.tpl would be for entries. For sidebars etc. you would need to look at index.tpl.

Just put the code somewhere, save the .tpl file and look at the HTML output of your blog to see where it gets put.

Best regards,
