  • japaneese google ads?

    I'm not sure how google does their AI for determining what ads to display, but for some reason over the past day or so about 10% of the ads they're trying to display have a pop up window asking if I want to install the japaneese language pack.

    I am not sure why they do that ad either :/

    I personaly look at enough anime stuff that I already had the language pack (it is a microsoft product so safe)

    I am curious... why is this so bad for people?

    I do have the language set to "English (US)"

    I sent a message to Google to see what they have to say about it.

      it's not that it's BAd per se Ngreth, it's I don't chose to have this on my computer, so it's an annoyance to be asked to download it when I dont want it. But it's simple, there was a box to check to never be asked again, so I checked it. Now I just get weird looking typeface where the Japanese add should be.

          Ok I heard back.

          Basically their crawler made a mistake.

          what I need is LInks of the pages on this site (this site itself, not the ad, but the page where the ad is) and I will submit them to Google, and they will correct the crawler table for those pages.

          an example bellow:

          be sure to click the check box "Automatically parse links in text" before you hit submit so I can see the whole url without editing your post.
