   Where is the setting to change the "ad level" of a Hubpage?
   
   Under the GENERAL heading of the Hubpage TOS is this statement:
   
   "All Hubs that are commercial in nature or that link to another site must be set to an ad level of "high."
   
   What does it mean and where is the setting inside our account?
   
   Thanks

   The setting for ads inside your account is in the section of your Hub Editor on the right side in the row with reorder, tags, SETTINGS, summary, group. 
   This setting adjust how many ads will appear in your article. Sometimes you may prefer to have less ads because you feel it interferes or takes away from your article. Other times you have to turn it off because although an article does not break HubPages rules it does walk the line for advertisers.
   I wrote an article about the Sexiest Superheroes but used a lot of innuendo for the humor. It was fine for HubPages but they requested I disable my ad level settings because of their different advertisers rules.

      Great answer! Your Sexiest Superheroes was fine for Hubpages yet they requested you disable your ad level? I'm a bit confused by that. Do you mean it was fine for general reading but not for making money?

      Some advertisers have stricter standards for content because of their clients. I make no money from "ads" on the article but I do have some amazon and e-bay products that if people click will give me a commission.

   I've only ever changed the setting for this on one hub. The one I created about the new profile layout. I turned the ads  to None, as it had no links leading out of Hubpages. The hub was also meant as a general guide for other users who have not moved to the new profile design.
   
   Domenick, pretty much covered it, I'm just adding a screenshot for reference.

      Gotta say Tony love the screen shot. I was looking inside my General Account for a global setting. Didn't dawn on me until my last brain cell collapsed from fatigue this setting for each individual Hubpage. Need a Hubpage for Dummies book.
