I'm Really Sick of This...

I posted about this last week, and the situation hasn't gotten any better. I'm getting desperate. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know...

About a week ago, the home page on one of my sites stopped showing relevant ads. All of the inner pages and posts are still relevant however. As of this morning, the home page is now showing only one or two ads at all (interest-based only - non-contextual), and a bunch of blank space.

Because all of my other sites are fine, and the posts and other pages for the problem site are normal, I don't believe that this is an issue with my AdSense account. It seems like the AdSense crawler is ignoring my home page content for some reason.

Has anyone else experience this, and if so, how do I fix it?

    Look in your adsense account for any mention of crawl errors. If there are some, then see what you can do about fixing them.

    I had a crawl error on the main page, and it too stopped showing ads. But I quickly fixed it, and the next time that page was crawled everything was back to normal.

    Yeah run your homepage through a onpage SEO diagnosis tool, google for one, make sure there aren't any errors on your page like broken links, blank text, etc....
