Now you can target your AdSense ads better using the new feature from Google AdSense. It’s called Section Targeting, which described below (source):
Section targeting allows you to suggest sections of your text and HTML content that you’d like us to emphasize or downplay when matching ads to your site’s content. By providing us with your suggestions, you can assist us in improving your ad targeting. We recommend that only those familiar with HTML attempt to implement section targeting.
To implement section targeting, you’ll need to add a set of special HTML comment tags to your code. These tags will mark the beginning and end of whichever section(s) you’d like to emphasize or de-emphasize for ad targeting.
The HTML tags to emphasize a page section take the following format:
<!-- google_ad_section_start -->
<!-- google_ad_section_end -->
You can also designate sections you’d like to have ignored by adding a (weight=ignore) to the starting tag:
<!-- google_ad_section_start(weight=ignore) -->
With these tags added to your HTML code, your final code may look like the following:
<html><head><title>Section targeting</title></head>
<body>
<!-- google_ad_section_start --></body></html>
This is the text of your web page. Most of your content resides here.
<!-- google_ad_section_end -->
</body>
</html>
An important notes from Google AdSense:
You can use section targeting to make suggestions about as many sections of a page as you like. However, please be aware that we can’t guarantee results, and that it may take up to 2 weeks before our crawlers take into account any changes you’ve made to your site.
Please also note that in order to properly implement this feature, you’ll need to include a significant amount of content within the section targeting tags. Including insufficient content may result in less relevant ads or PSAs.
I’ve updated my theme, put the ad targeting tag on my main content and put ignore tag on the rest of it. Well, I hope this new Section Targeting would really work. I’m tired seeing non-relative ads on this site
Versi Bahasa Indonesia
Sebagai Adsenser, seringkali kita dipusingkan dengan kemunculan iklan yg kurang tepat alias tidak sesuai dengan content yg diusung oleh situs kita. Ada beberapa penyebab hal itu dapat terjadi, namun salah satunya adalah banyaknya variasi content dalam satu halaman yg mengakibatkan "gagalnya" media bot (crawler Google AdSense) dalam menentukan kata kunci yg paling tepat untuk situs atau halaman situs kita.
Untungnya, Google telah memberikan alternatif solusinya, yaitu AdSense Section Targeting. Seperti dijabarkan oleh mereka di AdSense Help Center:
Section targeting allows you to suggest sections of your text and HTML content that you'd like us to emphasize or downplay when matching ads to your site's content. By providing us with your suggestions, you can assist us in improving your ad targeting. We recommend that only those familiar with HTML attempt to implement section targeting.
Maksudnya, dengan fitur ini kita dapat memberitahukan kepada media bot bagian2 mana saja dari situs kita yg merupakan content utama (yg mengandung kata kunci utama) dan juga, bagian2 mana yg tidak perlu dihiraukan (misal: sidebar, footer, dll).
Untuk mengimplementasikannya, kita cukup menambahkan kode berikut di awal bagian halaman yg merupakan main content.
HTML:
dan di bagian akhirnya kita letakkan:
HTML:
Bagaimana untuk bagian yg ingin kita hiraukan? Caranya hampir sama, hanya untuk kode pembukanya, gunakan baris kode berikut:
HTML:
Jangan lupa, crawler media bot butuh waktu untuk mampir ke situs Anda dan membaca baris kode Section Targeting yg telah Anda tambahkan. Beri waktu setidaknya 1-2 hari untuk melihat hasilnya.
Kesimpulan : Letakkan Kode HTML di atas Di awal (untuk yang ada kode Start) Postingan naskah dan di Akhir naskah postingan (untuk yang ada kode End)
