Arbitrage problems

[nogenius]

Hello all,

Recently, all of my arbitrage pages (hosted on a single domain) have been experiencing the problem of all showing ads on a single topic. Last week, it was personal loans, and this week, it is pet-related ads. The only connection I can see is that I have pages written over both of those topics on my domain.

Here's what I have tried so far, with no success:
1) Each page is written tailored to the topic, with a fairly high keyword density.
2) Tried moving some pages to their own subdomains, with the subdomain name targetted.
3) Tried using the adsense emphasis targetting code.

I am (or was, because I paused my campaigns) still getting clicks that pay somewhat decently, however.

Does anyone have suggestions of things I could try? I'm seriously thinking about just emailing Adsense and seeing what they can do.

Meta tags? Do you use the keyword in your file and directory names? Like somesite.com/keyword/keyword.html or keyword.somesite.com/keyword.html.

Usually it only take a few day at most to get each page sorted out. Are you continuously changing the URL? Once you make the page don't move it. Make a copy if you want to move it's location.

Once a static page starts showing correct ads it should never switch to something else.

Try the URL with something like "?x=1" tagged onto the end. This will tell the adsense bot it needs to come back at some point and scan the page again (thinks it's a new page). Also play with the adsense preview tool, change countries and such. I've had luck using both of these methods.

Also go to site diagnostics in your adsense account and see if google is reporting any errors.

Again it should only take a few days at most if you apply these tips.

try having your landing page be a squeeze page, so that you can promote all of your articles to them over a succession of follow up emails? at some point, the cost of that click that got them to visit your site and optin will be paid off by them clicking on at least ONE of your follow up articles

Don't email google about your arbitrage site. I think you know what will happen when they visit the page. :error:

yeah, don't e-mail google.

You should have the keyword as the subdomain or folder name, have it in a h1 somewhere, have it in the title and metas. refresh the page a few times to get it targetted.

there were some threads about this on here somewhere.

Lol, today I checked my arbitrage pages and they were showing correct ads, and I hadn't even changed anything.
