Installed VBSEO.. added Adsense.. no relevance

Hi guys.. Ive installed VBSEO and Adsense to my website but i'm having a little bit of a difficulty. I run a CG website CGCentral - Improving the Digital Media Industry in South Africa and as you can see on the homepage its advertising Dating, Real Estate and ADSL on the google ads. This is not exactly something my members are interested in.

What do I need to do to change it so that it shows relevant ads.

Thanks in advance.

How long have you had Adsense running? It can take time before it starts showing relevant ads. (See Adsense help for more information on possible lengths of time.)

The Adsense Targeting feature in vBSEO only enhances the targeting. Even with it turned off, you should get relevant ads, if there are any available.

Targetting specific things would be nice.. like my forum archive or something. But yeah these things seem tricky. Just thought id exploit the power of VBSEO after spending so much money on it.

When did you first add Adsense? Adsense states that it can take a while to start showing relevant ads.

Though, when I look on your "main" page, it's showing ads related to travelling to South Africa, so you appear to be getting targetted ads there.

Where else do you have ads?

Ah I see.. I suppose South Africa doesnt have that many CG related sponsored ads. :/ Thats the only place I have google ads right now.

Where I would like to put it is at the top or bottom of every thread.. sortof blended with my content.

Any idea how I could do this? I had a rough look at vb.org with no luck

That would be the SHOWTHREAD template.

GARS works brilliantly with ADSENSE... and im getting relevant ads!!!

Thats a known GARS issue.. people without vBSEO get it too.
