adsense does show nothing

Submitted by rolli1 on Tue, 2020-03-10 14:51 in

Hi David,
I use automatically inserted adsense on two of my sites. I inserted the code as described by google, but no ads appeared. I placed the code into the html/header.php.
What goes wrong?

Greetings
Roland

Hi Roland,

Inserting the AdSense code doesn't guarantee that ads will show (although I think becoming less common now that ads are as much user as well as content targetted) but what I would do is to double check that it has been added correctly using Firefox.

Firstly, browse to a page where you have added the AdSense code, right-click on the page and go to "View Page Source". In the source code, look at the AdSense code and check that nothing is highlighted in RED which indicates a mark-up error.

If that's all good, next press F12 to open the Web Console (or use menu Tools > Web Developer > Web Console) and on the "Console" tab, make sure that no JavaScript errors are being displayed. If there are errors but you're not sure of the significance let me know what is displayed and i'll check it out further with you...

Cheers,
David.

Hi David,
I doublechecked everything and could find nothing wrong. In the source code nothing is highligted and in the console no javascript error appears.
Do not know what else I can do.

Hi Roland,

If this is a new site it may just be a case of waiting for the crawl - make sure the sitemap is submitted in your Webmaster Tools account - and as well as seeing indexing stats there you can also Google search:

site:https://www.example.com/

...to see an approximate number of indexed pages. I'm afraid I'm not familiar with Auto Ads so I'm not sure how it determines where to insert ads in the page - it may be that there is nowhere suitable for example so I'll have a look into that further...

Cheers,
David.
