Irrelevant Google Ads - what do you do?
I notice that when I first post a hub the google ads are irrelevent at first but become contextual within minutes. However, one hub I've published recently - a tongue in cheek, spoofy number called The Importance of Male Grooming doesn't seem to have updated - still the same adverts about meeting women and importing wives.
I realise that Google has stats that show most men interested in grooming or not (as the case might be) are obsessed with the availability of women but I think that advertisers of male grooming products would be more relevant to my article's readers - then of course I'd get more clicks.
Is there anyway of changing the ads?
