I’ve been advised by Adsense that ads can’t be placed on Owlcation due to non sensical content, but the articles have been published for months and they have only just advised me of an issue. One of the articles was getting spam in the comments, but I did not approve the comments so they should not be visible. Would Adsense be able to pick up on these although not visible?
I get rid of them anyway - go here:
https://hubpages.com/my/hubs/comments
Use the drop-down filter to show the spam comments and zap every one of them.
Could you copy in the exact paragraph of the message from Adsense?
Thanks for your reply. Here’s the message.
I’ve deleted the spam comments completely in case that’s causing a problem.
There's nothing wrong with your articles - obviously, or they wouldn't be on Owlcation. So it might be that their crawlers can pick up the spam messages. Try requesting a review again and see what happens.
Or, first, contact team@hubpages.com, with the screenshot, and ask them if HP advertising is the problem.
You can also just ignore this. It is going to be a non-issue next week since Google will no longer be placing ads on any of the Hubpages sites.
I wasn’t aware of that. What is going to happen with the earnings program?

In the past I relied solely on Adsense to earn income from Hubpages, however this year I was able to finally open a PayPal account, so I signed up for the Hubpages Ad program. As expected, I saw a drop in my Adsense earnings, but now it's practically non-existent. I was earning a couple dollars...

I was just looking through my earnings, and I am making way more via hubpages earnings program than I am with my own adsense ads shoing up. I believe a 3rd or the ads would be my own adsense ones, but it only accounts for like a few percent of my earnings.Anyone else experience this, and do...

First problem seems to be that I have no adsense ads on this hub in a couple of days Second problem that is bugging me is that I got what seemed to be some spam comment that I denied that went along the lines of "thanks for the ads" from a hubber I didn't recognize (unfortunately I hit...

Please help me. For almost a month or more now, my adsense earnings have been non-existent. A few weeks ago, I checked my hubs and alot of them had no adsense ads on them. Tonight I rechecked them. After going through 27 of my top hubs, I found that only 9 of 27 of them have adsense ads on them. I...
