I've seen several occasions when someone suggested the reason a site is displaying charity ads instead of real ads is because the Adwords inventory of ads for the keyword(s) has been exhausted for the month.

I have Adsense ads on several very diverse websites and seem to be seeing a lot of charity ads lately. It would be a big coincidence if the inventory for this diverse group of key words was exhausted at the same time.

I read somewhere that Google would be performing site maintenance this weekend - hopefully that is the reason so many ads have disappeared. If not, I'm at a loss to explain it.

They also seem to have found some new charity ads. One of my sites is now displaying ads for pregnancy & weight gain, literacy in Cambodia, etc. They look ridiculous considering the site topic.

Anyone else seeing a lot of charity ads this weekend and last week?

I had the same type of thing happen to me when I first
started using adsense. What I noticed was - my file
names were not descriptive enough for google to
determine what types of adwords to put up.

Here's an example:

/frugalarticles.html

This page would only bring up charity ads

but.....

When I changed the file extension to:

frugal-articles.html

Great adwords came up!

Try working on your file extensions to see if that helps
any.

Hope it helps,

Pearl,

Thanks, but I don't think file names are the problem. My file names were appropriate to begin with.

I was getting very relevant AdSense ads for the first few weeks and now they have changed to charity ads and I made no changes to the pages during that time.
