Yes, it’s true that Google made some changes and now they’re serving IBA – interest based ads. But did you know that you can override that? And it’s simple to do too! Just log into your adsense account, click on the My Account tab, and scroll down to the Interest Based Ads preferences. Edit that to say “Do not show ads based on user interest categories” – and your ads will be back to normal.

Recently there have been several new forums springing up, and I believe I’ve found my new home!  Market Crush is the new place for me to hang, and if you go over there you’ll probably see some of the best marketers in the business making it their home, too.
