adsense for search has only one result

I just installed adsense for search on LongRangeHunting Online Magazine When doing a search for terms I know I do well in google using the google site, I only get one result and it's always the same result, my website home page. I checked the google forums but haven't found a solution to the problem.

Has anyone had this problem and what did you do about it? Below is the generated code from google.

Code:

<form action="http://www.google.com/cse" id="cse-search-box" target="_blank">
  <div>
    <input type="hidden" name="cx" value="partner-pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:0296143694" />
    <input type="hidden" name="ie" value="ISO-8859-1" />
    <input type="text" name="q" size="22" />
    <input type="submit" name="sa" value="Search" />
  </div>
</form>

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.google.com/coop/cse/brand?form=cse-search-box&amp;lang=en"></script>

If you just installed, it may take the system a bit to actually generate ads. I would ignore it for at least 24 hours and check back then.

It has been several days already. Results never change, no matter the search terms. Only one result, the home page.

Thanks.

It's not the ads I am worried about. It is the search results. There are many thousands of results for longrangehunting.com indexed in google. Using the same search terms at google.com gives great results for LRH. Using "search term site:longrangehunting.com" on google works and lots of results, but not the CSE from LongRangeHunting Online Magazine

I see, I mis-read.

Yeah, that's definitely not working right.

Nothing we can really do about though. That's all in google's hands. I'd try to get an email out to someone through their help section.

On 2nd look, my code snippit is WAY different.

Code:

<div id="cse" style="width: 100%;">Loading</div>
<script src="http://www.google.com/jsapi" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
  google.load('search', '1', {language : 'en'});
  google.setOnLoadCallback(function() {
    var customSearchControl = new google.search.CustomSearchControl('xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx');
    customSearchControl.setResultSetSize(google.search.Search.FILTERED_CSE_RESULTSET);
    var options = new google.search.DrawOptions();
    options.setAutoComplete(true);
    customSearchControl.draw('cse', options);
  }, true);
</script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://www.google.com/cse/style/look/default.css" type="text/css" />

you might want to go to google.com/cse and see if you have the latest code for your site.

Brian,

The code was just generated using the google account, new interface, my ads, new custom search engine. It was fist done a few days ago and has since been done 2 more times using different parameters (safe search on or off, different custom channel) for testing purposes. The actual CSE code has not changed except for the value="partner-pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:0296143694" part (number after colon is probably the channel identifier). The actual navbar template modification is (this was recommended by a Google Adsense rep for another website about a year ago):

Code:

<!-- breadcrumb, login, pm info -->
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
    <td class="alt1" width="100%">
<!-- LRH-Opt Search -->
<div class="alignright">
<form action="http://www.google.com/cse" id="cse-search-box" target="_blank">
  <div>
    <input type="hidden" name="cx" value="partner-pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:0296143694" />
    <input type="hidden" name="ie" value="ISO-8859-1" />
    <input type="text" name="q" size="22" />
    <input type="submit" name="sa" value="Search" />
  </div>
</form>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.google.com/coop/cse/brand?form=cse-search-box&amp;lang=en"></script>
</div>
<!-- /LRH-Opt Search -->
        <if condition="is_array($navbits)">
            <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
            <tr valign="bottom">
                <td><a href="#" onclick="history.back(1); return false;"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/navbits_start.gif" alt="$vbphrase[go_back]" border="0" /></a></td>
                <td>&nbsp;</td>
                <td width="100%"><span class="navbar"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1">$vboptions[bbtitle]</a></span> $navbits[breadcrumb]</td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
                <td class="navbar" style="font-size:10pt; padding-top:1px" colspan="3"><if condition="$_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST'"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/navbits_finallink_$stylevar[textdirection].gif" alt="" border="0" /><else /><a href="$navbar_reloadurl"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/navbits_finallink_$stylevar[textdirection].gif" alt="$vbphrase[reload_this_page]" border="0" /></a></if> <strong>$navbits[lastelement]</strong></td>
            </tr>
            </table>
        <else />
            <div class="navbar" style="font-size:10pt"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/navbits_start.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a> <strong>$vboptions[bbtitle]</strong></div>
        </if>
    </td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- / breadcrumb, login, pm info -->

I understand this is not a vBSEO issue. I was just hoping to find anyone who might have some experience or expertise. Getting support from google is less than satisfying sometimes.

Thanks for the help so far.
