Optimize Your Google Adsense Ads With Section Targeting

We all want to do all we can to make our Google Adsense ads work their most effectively. One very simple way of doing this is by placing Google Adsense Section Targeting tags within the HTML of your web pages.

I think you're really missing the boat if you haven't been using Google Section Targeting in your Adsense optimization. These section tags zero in on what's important on your wegpage & ignore the stuff that doesn't pertain to ads that Google would apply to your website.

Here's a little trick of the trade. Though they are quite easy to place into your HTML, I find it easiest to finish all my HTML & then add all my section tags. It seems easier because you don't have to keep glancing back up at the HTML to see which tag you are currently working on.

There are only three tags you need to familiarize yourself with. First is the start tag, which you place before the HTML you want the Google crawlers to notice. Second is the start but ignore tag, which you place before the HTML you want the crawlers to ignore. Third is the end tag, which you place where you want the previous two tags to stop noticing or ignoring.

Another trick of the trade. While placing the ignore tags around your info that doesn't pertain to ads Google might potentially show, ask yourself if that "ignored" information really needs to be on your page at all . . .

Google says it may take up to two weeks for them to crawl your newly optimized pages, & they warn, as I do, that results can't be guaranteed. It's worth a shot & the small effort.
