Thread: hi

I honestly hope this site could be somewhat of a help...

I found this blog and video about optimizing vbulletin for google adsense, only problem... can't see a damn thing he's doing when he's editing code. Take a look, I'm sure you've seen it before: ((login for URL))

I was hoping this site could have a nice vbulletin guide that was actually visible instead of the blurry one on duoblogger. I want to generate relevant ads on my site, and it seems like the video had the right idea.

anyone help?

Hello and welcome to AdSenseExperts.com

Section targeting are Suggestions to AdSense which
part of the content you say is the most relevant for AdSense.
So I would wrap it around the Thread Title and the Posts in a thread.
You can do that in the postbit or postbit_legacy template.

If you want you can ((login for URL)) they implement section targeting
with their software all around the forum. It is the most easiest way.
I am using it on all of my forums.

If you want you can find a long term case study of one of my forums
using vBSEO here: ((login for URL))

I thought vbSEO was pretty much pointless for vBulletin 4?

vBSEO is not just about rewriting the URL.

However I don't say that it will work miracles on your traffic,
but personally I like it and use it on all of my forums.
I just started this one here and use vBSEO on it

It has so many nice little things like the Section
targeting that you don't have to take care of any
more then

Sounds very interesting, I may have to look into it further.

Hello, you can play the video fullscreen, I've looked at it and I guess by following the voice and the overall form of the code you can find it back on your own forum and edit in the right places.
Or simply ask the author of the video for the original file or a better resolution file, perhaps he won't mind sending it to you.

Do any of you guys have any idea where to put the Section Targeting codes in vbulletin? So far I have them in the start and end of the Postbit - but I would also like to know where else to put them

Thread Title definitively, similar threads maybe

But you can also set large portions of text to be ignored by using:
<!-- google_ad_section_start(weight=ignore) -->

which you could wrap around the footer, the navbar, the username, etc.

How about the home page of the Forum... those results aren't coming in as correct as I'd hope... and that's where a high amount of my ad impressions are... Do you know where exactly I should put any type of section targeting code to get the ads to show up better...

ps - starting to love you guys for all the help
