I am pretty sure it is working. Remember to set the COUNTRY when you
preview, because
Adsense displays differently based on the location of the viewer.

I don't get it. What is this telling me?

I entered opro.org and US, and I get O-Pro Mouthguards. That is nonsense.

If you see
O-Pro Mouthguards
The worlds favorite mouthguards
Custom fitted for comfort & safety

That is exactly what will be shown as now if you place adsense on your
site. It will change within 10 hours.

If the URL is from a not so popular site or the URL does not currently have
adsense, then google needs 1 second to 10 hours before it can understand the
content. If you retry later then you will get better results matching the
content better.

For example, before July, it takes about 30 minutes. In July and August, it
takes 1 second. In September, Google changed algorithms again. If you follow
adsense/adwords closely, you will see the difference.

The program is always correct, because it has premium connection to Adsense
database which can display up to 20 ads rather than the regular 5 ads per
showing.

...
I don't get it. What is this telling me?

I have adsense on my sites as well, for
a number of reasons. When I was considering
introducing ad-sense, I was curious as to what
forms of ads it would produce with my sites.

This tool may have given me some idea, but..
I entered opro.org and US, and I get O-Pro Mouthguards. That is nonsense.

When a page is first served ads, Google
does the best it can to quickly analyse the
page and give the most appropriate ads.

I must assume that opro.org has already
been indexed by Google, because the first ads
that show for my own pages were basically
'public service announcements', though now
that Google has got used to my sites they will
generally serve ads generic to the subject
(Java, or whatever..)

I think we can conclude that 'Google will
not server the most appropriate ads for
opro.org' and that some tuning of the ads
would be required.

It is of less use to *new* and unindexed pages
as you would generally get the public service ads.

...or what? Is this an 'everybody that
uses ad-sense is evil' thing, Neal? ;-)

So... if I were to try again in the morning, the results may vary?

I guess, because I have seen no need to use Adwords, it must not be
relevant to me. Thanks anyhow.

Can you give an example for where this would be advantageous?

Well it is now but It definitely was not before...

I do not think your drop-down select
is very intuitive the way it is.

I suggest you delete the first (useless)
value and have it default to the US,
but to put a message on the final page..

"The ads supplied for this site
assuming it is coming off a server
in <em>TheSelectedCountry</em>. For
other locales, please select a different
country in the drop-down list."

F'Ups set to c.l.j ..again.

BTW. Is there any actual *relevance* to JS
in this post? Everything that is done on the
page could be done in any number of server-side
scripting languages.. and I can see it is
a .pl extension, with no JS (excepting the
google ads themselves in the page). Or is it
just that the Google ads themselves use JS?

That is exactly what will be shown as now if you place adsense on your

Guessing how you've coded this, there's one possible small variation
in your emulator and AdSense's actual behaviour.

AdSense uses its own spiders, not the main GoogleBot. These have
different behaviours and may be influenced by separate robots.txt
rules. In most cases there's no difference, but if you place ads on a
page from a phpBB board, AdSense makes some effort to avoid
influencing its ad selections by transient (and potentially hostile)
board postings. I'm not Google, and so I don't know the exact
details, but AdSense will try to default to sensible behaviour for the
site, not tailored to that page.

Well I don't know. I have had adsense on one domain for a while now
and when I put that url in the adsense tester it did show the same ads
as were shown on my existing site.

I would say then it does pretty good in matching it up. I have bookmarked it
anyway but I just hope it doesn't soon vanish like the others have...
*wonders
why they disappeared suddenly*

Well umm.. *goes to look* I have not sold anything yet...

Would I recommend it? Yes and No...

It is not an expensive monthly fee and your first month is free. Not sure
how long they will keep offering that and AFAIK it is only with the basic
store.

The best thing is how much you save listing items in your store vs. listing
them
at auction.

In listing fees saved I have already made up the first month of the store
fees when
they do charge me and I will likely double that amount saved soon because I
am going
to be listing a lot more.

To put it plainly listing a 7 day auction for all items I have would have
cost me $60.00 US.
Listing the same things in the store for 30 days will only cost me $4.00 US.
Quite a significant difference.

For a fledgling though I would recommend they learn some things first and do
the research.
What is selling, what is the best price to ask since stores work on fixed
price and of course
how much competition is there for the item(s) you are considering on
selling.

Lastly if they were going to go the ebay route whether or not they already
had a product line
to sell I would recommend getting the Auctions For Income system found oddly
enough at
http://www.auctionsforincome.com/

That is the only one I would recommend and I would not recommend any of the
'imitations'
I found a lot of useful information in those manuals. Some ideas that are
great which I had
not thought of.

So now that I have made the longest post on usenet I have in a good long
time... *grin*
I will end it. Yes an ebay store is recommended if they are willing to do
the work and the
research. Also of course the advertising legwork. :)

He he, I noticed!

Thank you for a top-quality answer!

Good luck with the store.
