Question about Google Adsense

[Rwh909r]

I have a test site that i use to start testing adsense on and every page produces relevant ads except for one.

This specific page if im allowed to show the link its -
it's a simple post that just asks if the public thinks a former reality show star tiffany pollard should pose in Playboy and I put a poll on it.

Surprisingly i rank extremely well for this in google and get regular hits a day to this page. The only adsense that shows up is a hurricane relief add. there should be one under the banner, one in the post itself and one at top and bottom of the side bar.

I dont see any obscene language on the post or any other TOS violations so why does Google remove all the adds but that one?? Any clue??

adsense are not allowing those implicit content such porn or adult content.. i highly recommended to you that read first all rules and guidelines so it will not waste your time or worst make your account disable by Google teams..

Ok well I understood "* Pornography, adult, or mature content" to mean you can't display images or obscene content. Not just saying the name Playboy. Which is strange because for the longest time I did receive adsense ads on my page for Playboy merchandise and the magazine.
I guess google is extremely specific then so I'll remove that and see what happens.

[Rwh909r]

Also then does it take into account the content only or everything such as comments also. Like if its a perfectly TOS clean post but the comments have flagged words in them should I edit those too?
Think i will just to be safe.

I checked out your page, and I couldn't or read anything that would scream "violation". Most likely what happened is that your word density of "naked", breast, boobs, etc.. overcame their filters threshold for potential mature content.

Cheers!

Link now removed as you've gotten a couple of helpful answers.

[Mr.Bill]

If it is merely a word that is causing the problem you could try
<!-- google_ad_section_start(weight=ignore) -->
Playboy
<!-- google_ad_section_end -->

Not sure if this is still a viable way to block words you dont want google to try and use as adsense.

I think just a word playboy does ton violates adsense TOS

[Mihai]

The word "playboy" does not violate Google Ads TOS

[Rwh909r]

yeah i cleaned up a lot of the nude and PlayBoy and other words like that and it seems to have corrected it.
Kinda weird, im guessing it was all the words through up a flag probably.

thanks guys.

I seriously doubt that something like "playboy" is against adwords TOS. Its all a matter of content, images, etc. not about 1 word.

How many mentions of these words were on the page? Just an estimate, only curious as the amount of times it was mentioned as this could be useful for later in the future

[Rwh909r]

thats what i figured cus there was nothing overly obscene just alot of people kept saying playboy and she should pose nude.
I dont know out of like 16 comments at the time it was mentioned like 8 times maybe lol google is just weird sometimes.

[Mihai]

This is indeed very few number of words mentioned. Sounds a bit weird to me.. is the problem solved now ?

Same question and the ads displaying on that page now?

This is quite a thread! I have never thought that the simple word "playboy" may be against Google Adsense TOS. Thank you for all this quality information, it could save one's Adsense accounts in the future.

We are still not sure of what happened and if the Adsense is still there on the website that had this kind of problems. Looking forward to clearing this up
