    It seemed that every time I published a hub I get Adsense ads on TATTOOS. And then it takes a little while for it to settle down and find its footing.

    So I've researched information on a hub about tattoos. I figure, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em.

    So I publish it. And NO ADS ABOUT TATTOOS. What the!?

      I think the tattoos come up first because  they need the business.  They are probably the default ads.  No one else (or few) want them--- Check back and see if they are not quickly replaced. Target your keywords and your graphics to your subject and ads will probably change quickly. Yes it takes a while for the engines to find appropriate ads-- machines are only human, after all.

        It's strange, because every where else I publish, whether a platform like HubPages or my own blogs and sites 9 times out of 10 the ads are spot on.

      ROFLMAO

      You should know better than to use "black hat" techniques like that to game the system, Darkside.

      Google knows what you're up to - remember GoogleGod sees all ... even the intentions in your heart ...

      ROFLMAO again.
