Could Key Word Stuffing Be Why No Adsense Ads are Showing Up On Pages?
I have still not had a response from Google. I ha identified 5 pages on one of my sites where Google Adsense Ads have been replaced by Public Service ads or no ads at. there are about 1500 pages on the blog with problem and the 5 pages that are not showing ADSense ads have related terms. They are all about the same topic. which see,s too much to be a coincidence. I am suspecting that the pages MAY have been mistakenly banned because of keyword stuffing. This seems to be the only thing that can make sense. If it we something going with scripts on my pages would be on wider variety of pages and not just on the 5 that deal with a single particular topic.
I am going to have to find out if the pages have been “banned” from Adsense. I would have thought that if one page was bad they would pull on the ads. I am having trouble finding out what exactly are the repercussion of a banned page and if a whole site is affected or not.
I have been toying with idea of just adding a redirect and putting pages on new URL within the blog. I am also not sure if by “fixing” the page it will automatically be “unbanned” or if I have to manually request or submit.
I am annoyed because I have done nothing wring and don’t; want to fix a age that isn’t broken. I also don’t want to further tick Google off.
ARGH..
I may just ignore for a few days and see if Google ever gets back to me and let them tell me best way to solve problem.
I had something similar happen to just a few pages on one of my ~100 page blogs.
Check your outbound links! I love dofollow and I use it on all my sites too, but you can get slapped if you’re linking out to domains that have been penalized.
So if you’re linking to domains that have lots of backlinks yet are PR0 at the root, there’s a chance that you’ve been caught up in a bad neighborhood. These sites either scraped their content, or link out to bad topics, or they’re buying/spamming for links.
While it gives a lot of false positives, the bad neighborhood link checking tool can be a good place to start looking:

I would certainly consider it a possibility, my first website was originally denied due to a huge keyword to content ratio, something like 10%. I would play around with those pages and see if the ads come back by themselves.
Has this happened again recently? Had some sites that had this problem and I contacted Google.
I have had the same problem on one of my websites - so I hope you will share your findings.
Yes this could be the cause of not having targeted revenue from Google adsens. I think John is quite rite about the fact of bad Neighborhood. If you are linked with penalized and spammed sites your Google visibility can be decreased and hence your Google adsense earning. Keyword stuffing can be a cause but I don’t think it really matters I have my own websites which are really stuffed with keywords but still I was earning quite lot with Adsense. However earning with adsesne is not that easy as it was in 2005 when adsense was launched
While putting this site together, I ran into an issue where some of the Google Adsense ad units were not displaying. They were all using the same code. What I observed was that all ads would display on the individual post pages (single.php), but some were missing on the main page (index.php).
I found my answer and figured I’d post it here in case anyone else runs into the same issue.
