Adsense ads don't show up, only "Ads by Google" and a textbox

Question

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this question. Feel free to close this thread if needed. But here's my question:

The page where the ad is located is http://engineercreativity.com/adsense.html

I copy/pasted the ad code and placed it in a simple page (because it wasn't working on my actual website).

The ad code is for an adsense "Ad for Content". It's supposed to be something like:

Ads by Google Ad1 Ad2 Ad3 ....

But it shows:

Ads by Google textbox button

Is there a way to fix this. I'm sure it's not related to the code, but rather to the Google Ads settings. Are any of you familiar with Google Adsense?

Thanks, Amit

Answer 1

It's working as intended. It doesn't have any ads to show because of the lack of actual content on the page.

Answer 2

You inserted the ad correctly. But did you mean to set the ad's height to 15?

And as Matt H answered, you'll have to wait for Google to crawl your site before it serves relevant advertisements.
