The only location sensitive advertising is GAdsManager. If you use just plain vanilla adSense for content, then the adverts will only reflect the static content of your page at the time that adSense last crawled your page. That's fine is your page is about something like Hotels in Paris. If you leave clues in the static HTML part of your page that that's what your page is about, then adSense will display adverts related to hotels in Paris. If your page is about worldwide maps, then you get adverts related to worldwide maps, even when the user is using your page to look for hotels in Paris.
Wikimapia seems to have some method for getting adSense to display adverts related to the search topic and your search history. I suspect that they're somehow throwing the search info at adSense for Search. I can't see how they're doing that, it doesn't seem to be an obvious adSense for Search option, and their code is extremely obscure. Note that the ad content is not sensitive to map movements, but only to the search info. If you use the search box to search for Paris, and then pan across to Berlin the ads don't change. If that's what you're interested in achieving, then it's not map related. E.g. if you type "Guitar" into the wikimapia search box you get ads from guitar shops (and recipes for Sea Bass!), so you'd probably have better luck asking on an adSense discussion group. -- http://econym.org.uk/gmap The Blackpool Community Church Javascript Team --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
