Why is google Putting Off-topic Ads On My Blog

I started these two blogs a couple days ago. I put adsense on it. The blogs were: One about humor and the other about odd ways to make money. Google, however, on both has advertisements about some store selling household furniture and clothing, completely off-topic. Does anyone know why this is and if there is anything that I can do to solve this?

    Hi Wil-duh-beast,

    Do nothing, it takes a few days for the ads to be optimized on your website, just try to focus on a narrow topic for each individual page. The ads will gradually get more and more targeted each day.

    Yes, it takes time to get targeted Ads. Also, you can use 'section targeting' to improve on your targeted Ads. Learn about section targeting on G Adsense Help HERE

    This is happening because 1) you do not have enough content on the site for Google to accurately decide what ads are relevant to your site, 2) there are no advertisers relevant to your site so no relevant ads and 3) it might be a combination of both. Hope this helps

      Here's a crazy thing.
      On a teachers site I wanted to put the ad link units.
      I kept getting one titled 'Naked Teachers.'
      Try as I might, I could not get it off there.
      I thought google frowned on adult stuff.
      So, I can either keep the embarrassing naked teachers
      ad link, or not use em. Crazy.
      I'll bet some other people have similar stories about
      what was popping up on their site.

      It is true. Let your site age. Google will optimize.

        You can disallow ads from the "naked" url - that might solve it.

        I've found the section targeting seems often necessary on blogs for some reason though I've never had to use it on a site to focus the ads.
