Don't all rush at once. It's the adverts I'm referring to.
I'm not a prude, honest. In fact I regularly spend hours researching female biology on the internet. But that's porn sites.
When I write some quirky, semi amusing little piece of nonsense I expect a few targeted adverts along the lines of make money, lose money and borrow money.
What I don't need, along with all the other goings on on here, is some sprawled out woman who appears to be advertising some cruddy company naming scheme.
I put up with the fish pedicures. I can just about stand the lady who appears to enjoy dating sixty year old men. But I'm getting tired of these second rate sub adsense adverts.
Or maybe the new target readership is a bunch of hopeless pervs? If it is... then I'd better start targetting them - after all, it's my specialist subject.
But are people clicking on the semi-naked woman ad?
What are your keywords you are using in that hub, could you change them a bit to attract a different type of ad? Though it does all seem to be a bit random at the moment
Hi CM. The advert probably is based on the keywords. My point is that the company uses a woman in a bikini to sell something that has nothing to do with a woman in a bikini, unless that is the normal attire for the particular company she represents.
It isn't. It's just that it's sub Google in quality, and believe me, that's saying something.
Mark, just a thought, is it the top half or the bottom half showing
If I blow the ad up to almost illegal levels of pixellation it appears to be a bikini.
Thanks Joy. Still around, still failing but... still hopelessly optimistic.
just keep going, keep writing that is the main thing. I have been following your comments on the forums, you are a strong contender for hub pages, when you go, we all go ...... I have not done much writing lately, but i love to read others work, and communicate here in forums.
Mark, soon as I saw this thread I clicked on it, bet you wish they would click on your half naked woman instead of just stairing at her for hours on end.
Another good point. Although the Gay pound is worth a bit... so I hear.
Yeah, listen - I don't really want equal opportunity lots of flesh on my hubs at all really. Men or women. Just a few ads for payday loans - that'll do.
I know -just kidding around.
Actually I dont like Scientology all over mine either ,and there is some place you can block such adverst-but sorry Ive forgotton.
Adsense account ?
I was a bit miffed but not miffed enough to like click on a few buttons. I'll just shut my eyes. Well, one eye.
Google Adsense,then
Goggle Adsense Setup then Competitive Ad Filter.(found along with other options just under Google Adsense setup)
Im not 100% sure if this is the only way ,but might offer a solution.
Thanks Eaglekiwi - I feel like I'm a fresher at HP Uni.
lol, well I showed a leg in a post once and UW didn't like it!
Oh boy... this place is a hot bed of sexual intrigue.
What hub is it on pleeeeeeease.
An old man has to get his thrills somewhere
It comes and goes. Sometimes normal adverts, lines of texts and sometimes the lady of the bikini.
I find if I constantly refresh the page I get lucky after three times at most.
Can't give the name of the page due to forum rules about shameless self promotion... as if I would do such a thing.
But any of the last few will show it if you're lucky. Or maybe it's just google remembering your preferences.
I think that you secretly like this bikini lady, Mark! You seem to be investing an awful a lot of time trying to get her onto your hub LOL?
Well it would be rude to completely ignore her I suppose.
Now THAT is a great answer. My reward, not in Adsense clicks, but in bikini clad ladies.
Fair enough.
she's teasing you, reminding you to not take life too seriously.

I'm sure I'm not alone in this. When I open a page I do not want it to start talking to me or playing music unless I press play. I really hate those adverts that are like a TV advert and appear on the page, and start playing without being clicked. Especially if I have multiple tabs / windows open...

I know we are all here to make some money, but having 10 ads on a page slows down loading time to such an extent that readers just don't have the patience to wait for a page to load. So they click away without reading our pages. To prove my point that the very high number of ads is to...

If we turn off HubPages Ads and replace them with one Amazon Ad would our ability to earn decent money be compromised? Would we still earn from Adsense? Could someone please explain the different scenario's to me so that I can better judge and understand which option is better for...

Over the last couple of days my Adsense earnings have gone down to practically nothing, so today I looked at some of my hubs and noticed there are no adverts on any of them. Why is this?I am quite near to getting my first £60 payout,is that the reason? - Maybe google doesn't want to pay me so has...

There is a real need to purge Amazon ads from this site but there is a right way and a wrong way to go about it.Pages that have multiple Amazon ads but get good traffic from search engines are obviously not a problem. Google will have hit them long ago if they were triggering spam filters.What...
