Adsense custom Channels

I was excited to see the new adsense account interface which is generally quite good.

What i am still dissappointed about is the limited way in which we can use custom channels. At present these can only be set up according to ad block.

I want to set up my channels in a way that i can group together pages based on subject. If i have a site with thouands of pages, and dozens of categories i want to create custom channels based on the categories. That way advertisers get the chance to bid on ad placement based on subject, which i would have thought makes alot more sense than this obsession of placing ads on the rectangle VS skyscraper etc. Not saying that isnt a factor, but seems to me they totally missed greater potential of allowing custom channels that can be made of a group of urls that the webmaster decides.

What do you guys think?

  • Not really sure what you are complaining about.

    You can already do what you are suggesting.

    Make your custom channels based on the ad blocks for the pages you want to group together.

    Am I missing something?

    • You can already do what you are asking.

      But not all channels are targeted. You have to go
      through the rules and conditions of making a channel
      targeted.

      Adwords users do indeed search for topics and whole
      websites.

      You have to know the difference between types of channels.

      You can even tell advertisers where their ad will appear on a page.

      It will require a little work on your part.

  • He is saying that he has the same ad block on different pages and wants to see which page gets better results from that ad block.

    I'm at work so I can't check now but I'm pretty sure you can do that with analytics.
