Any ideas why the ads for my Hub are for Bollywood and bikini pics? My Hubs have nothing to do with those subjects, so I don't understand why the ads are so off-topic.
Sometimes it takes time for Google to post relevant ads to a hub. When was the hub published?
Also, sometimes when they can't find relevant ads they post random things, but not often. A tech hub shouldn't be hard to find ads for. Just give it time to refresh in Google's standpoint so that they have time find relevant stuff.
Like Whitney05 just said.... you have only been here 3 days. It takes time for google adsense bots to work through your pages, this has taken up to 14 days for me before.
I have been building web sites for many, many years and I have never found it too take that long for Google to get the ads right. I also wonder why, around here, they always default to bikini pics, Bollywood, and celebrity site before they become targeted.
Do you look at lots of celebrity sites by any chance? If you have been building sites for so long, you may have heard of Googles new 'targeted' ads? I get ads about soccer, Indian singles and computer games before mine index.....
Just wait a few days and see if it changes, you may also wish to consider whether or not anybody is bidding for your keywords? They wont display ads if nobody wants their ads there.
The ads I see on your hubs are relevant to your topics, seo and marketing.
Are you aware that 40% of the time, HubPages AdSense affiliate code will be associated with your Hubs and that during those times, the ads might change to be things that are relevant to HubPages overall and not specifically your Hubs?
I have just clicked on all three of your ads and EVERY google adsense advert that I can see relates to SEO and Traffic.
Since that is the subject of your hubs, I cant see where the problem is.
Well your ads are all targetted just fine now when I viewed.
And yes, it always a good idea to make sure your logged out of your google accounts/cookie free browser to get the most authentic view that your visitor will see in any of Big G 's services
This is rather odd....
No thank you for all of the people that helped, and then hubs deleted and gone....
A fine example of a quitter if one is ever to be seen?

Well I finally had my first Post-Panda incident with disabled ads. I'm guessing it's because there is a picture of a girl in a (gasp!) bikini on it. I e-mailed the Team to see what is wrong for sure, so I'll wait for their reply. I cant post a link to said Hub because that would be promoting. But...

How do I get relevant ads posted on my hubs?How do I get relevant ads on my hubs?! I can't seem to figure it out. I get ads that have nothing to do with what I'm trying to write about. Is there something I'm missing?

I've gotten two emails about the same hub, which of course was one of my holiday hubs - the hubs that helped build up most of my following on here.It was about the first flights between the Hawaiian islands, and the content talked about airplanes, airports, Hawaii... and the picture had a hang...

Over the past two+ years I’ve really put a lot of effort into learning SEO and how to produce content that has some hope of success here on HubPages. It was hard work and frustrating at times, but it really paid off. So let me preface this by saying by no means am I dissatisfied with my...

I keep submitting my request to AdSense, which keeps denying me because of 'insufficient content,' but I have four substantial hubs published AND... ads ARE showing up on my hubs but I'm not being paid for them! Help!

I got into an interesting discussion on another thread, and thought it would make a good thread itself. The question of the day is how do you feel about other hubbers clicking on an ad in your hubs?Personally I really don't see a problem with it as long as the ad interests them from a good quality...
