The short of it is that AdSense making changes to text ads so that instead of getting clicks when people click anywhere on an ad unit (including the background of ads) clicks will only work (and we?ll only get paid) when there is a click on an actual title or URL in the ad.

Yes, you should. That kind of language suits you.

I have my own ppc engine so i dont care whatever google with adsense do.

teg0 · 11-14-2007, 06:35 AM

yeah its not all ads yet. also they redid the ad code recently where you can go in and change the color and things without having to regenerate the code. Those ads seem to be effected by the new zones, at least for me. The old code still has the bigger click zone.

Seems fair that you shouldn't get paid (and advertisers shouldn't get charged) for clicks that weren't intentional.

FeedAM · 11-14-2007, 07:15 AM

Better for advertisers since that should reduce accidental clicks.

I would agree.

Good for the advertiser. Sucks for the publisher.

Quick solution: Placement (but don't use same font or size text -- so you don't get banned

) near resource listings and link mini-descriptions.

leftsans · 11-14-2007, 02:51 PM

i'm surprised they did that! thats going to cost plenty of scammers big time

CyberHustler · 11-14-2007, 02:53 PM

Keep the old ones you have up.... They still work the same. At least for me.

WiredGuy · 11-14-2007, 02:54 PM

Is this live yet? I'm still seeing the old units on all my adsense pages.
