Where have the ads gone from my hubs? Is it just me or is this another site wide issue?
I checked a few of my hubs and found that the prime ad location (top right) was bereft of any ads? Any suggestions as to why this is happening would be welcome. Have you experienced something similar. Considering that this is the prime location for advertisers this is not helping anyone who is trying to make money here on hubpages. These almost constant glitches are becoming annoying to say the least.
See the photo below.
Well, I just checked a couple of my hubs and the ads are there, so I am sorry, I do not know why they are not showing up on your hubs. Hope you find out the problem soon.
I haven't had any issues. I also checked a few of your hubs, and the ads seem to be appearing OK. Is it possible that the hubs you are referring to are hubs that are not featured? Hubs that are not featured don't have the ads displayed.
Well which ad program are you using? Adsense or hubpages? You do not need to use adsense...even though you need an adsense account, go figure. I have been using the hubpages program thus far. I may switch when I get more reliable traffic rates to see which is better.
All that being said, your ads show up for me.
That was what even I thought when I didn't see The ads.But then I saw that my adblock was enabled!If you have adblock then disable it.This will make your ads visible again.
Hope this helps!
Cheers!
That's what I was about to ask you, if you had Adblock enabled. That has happened to me and had me scratching my head before I realized what the issue was. Glad you figured it out.
Adblock was not enabled. Just seems like someone is farting around and generally messing things up. Nothing new there then.

i've mentioned this before, but i just checked my 84 articles and a huge number of them have ads for 'filipina girls', 'sexy singles', etc. my articles are about gradening, food, travel and family topics - there are even two ads for sex on my article about 'webkinz'! I emailed the help...

I'm curious if anyone has tested by a month to month basis whether or not you make more with Adsense alone or with HP Ads?It's impossible to do a true split test, since each month will be different, but I'm curious to hear your results...Some of us won't get a lot of traffic so Adsense might be...

I must have missed an announcement, but I have noticed a section down the right side of my hubs (as well as other hubs) and along the bottom called "related ads". I haven't clicked on them as that is a no-no, but am curious what they bring up. There also seem to be a lot more...

First I am not yet set up to reap the benefits of adsense ads on my hubs, having issues with taht and waiting for a team reply, but shouldn't there be ads on my hubs even if I'm not set-up? No I checked my hubs, logged in and logged out. No ads?

Several days ago it was mentioned that the sidebar had disappeared, appeared, disappeared, on HP Hubs. I just noticed on another site which I am frequently on that the ads have also vanished. I checked a couple others which have AdSense and they are also gone.

Yesterday I was confidant that e-mailing HP staff would result in the ads being turned back on, on the four hubs (and counting) of mine that have had their ads disabled. This was not the case, and I was told by HP staff that all four would remain ad-less for being against the Google TOS.Do...
