I would like to know if there is a way to somehow declare some ads zones for AdSense. Right now, I am using page level ads, but there are too many ads inserted, and the ones that are inserted in the page are placed randomly and are ruining my design.
I tried to set a min-height and a min-width to divs that I want the ads placed in, but that didn't do anything.
Is there anyway to tell Google where they should insert the ads?
There is not... that is the whole point of Auto Ads (page-level ads) ... google decides where to put them, and locations usually suck ... so it looks bad, and you make less $$
You should really place your ads yourself. Is your site on WordPress?

I am trying to populate google ad-sense into my client website and i am using
https://www.npmjs.com/package/angular-google-adsense
With view page source on msbionlineclasses.com you can see on the index page the directive is been called.
Still i am getting a blank item. Let me know the reason?
Update-1
I am getting as AD:1
Usually google starts analysing your website traffic patterns and content type once your adsense code goes live i.e. after implementing it into your HTML page.
For few days (usually 1-2 days), it will only show the empty placeholders, which is the case with you right now I guess.
Wait for 2 days and you will be able to see the results automatically.
P.S. - the usual practice I follow is to have only one adsense implementation in the footer where empty placeholder will not bother the visitors as well as the look of the page. Once it is working, implement as desired.
Short version
Is there a way to force a specific banner to show so I can take a screenshot? I know I can Photoshop it etc, but that's not really nice.
The whole thing
In name of an intermediary firm I regularly place banners for their clients on my site via DFP (my account). They always request a screenshot of the site displaying the clients' banner to pass on to them showing that I've started the campaign.
Unfortunately sometimes the frequency is so low that even "As fast as possible" takes a ton of pageviews before the banner shows up (which is also not really nice towards the other advertisers).
You can check documentation for Preview a creative
In short:
You need to open creative, click Preview tab, click on site and put url of the page on your site where you expect to see your creative
Update
Looks like problem related to way you are opening creative. I have reproduced this behaviour.
If you open creative directly trough search it shows no On site link
If you open line item first and from this screen navigate to very same creative, you will see On site link
I know that this topic has been discussed before in varying extent but I have some specific queries. I will use an example for this case and would like to request you for your views.
Example:- A home finance management website. There are two pages. The basic page after login is an empty page with a text box. Type in "Rent" and rent details and trends pop up. Type in "Bills" and bill details and history pop up. The data shown to user is different of course.
Now -
1. If I place an Adsense script in the basic home page where I just have a text box, will it be disqualified for not having enough content ?
2. Even if the content changes (AJAX), does the ad change to suit the content ? Does the crawler keep a constant check of index the pages after defined intervals and whatever it finds there is kept and searched for keywords ? The same page may show different content to different users and hence have different keywords. (Also, since login would be cookie based, how does crawler see this page ?)
Edit -
I know from HERE that Google does take AJAX calls into account but since the results would be dynamically populated by accessing a database and while populating unique data, the bot looking at the form action page doesn't help much, does it?
3. Google prefers GET method. So if I go like this - xyz.com?show=rent / xyz.com?show=bills, the page is regenerated and the script reloaded but each time the crawler sniffs any one of the two pages, it might see different content for different users. What does it do ?
4. If I do not reload the page by form submission and the page is not regenerated every time, can I call a function to document.write the div I am putting the ad in ? Would that make it re-sniff the page ?
Any help is much appreciated.
I am usign the version of based on the <fb:like > tag. This renders a small facbook logo which implements the actual "like" operation, but also includes a large "signup to see what your friends like", or the number of likes when you are logged in, etc. It is pretty clear from what I have read that this is the form facebook wants you to use, but it makes the button to wide for my layout. The point is that I see other versions on websites all over, in particular "the weather channel" has one that includes only the logo with some text such as "like us" next to it. "Chicago Tribune" has one that says "recomend" with a very small like count next to it. I have not been able to determine what these link to or what script they invoke so that I can copy them. Can anyone help ?
when you get the code of the like button from facebook you can play with the options and get different results: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/.
obviously it's limited to how facebook wants it to look like.
it is possible to change the look with css, but that's not wise since it's against their policy and you'd have to keep track with their changes.
Okay so for this page:
http://www.facebook.com/ESPN?sk=app_224097940938597
Which appears on the left hand bar between ESPN Fanwhich and ESPN Live Chat.
That isn't a canvas but it isn't a static page that I can gather. I found this tutorial: http://www.kimwoodbridge.com/how-to-add-a-custom-tab-to-a-facebook-fan-page/
But that is creating static content.
What I'm wondering is how I can create a dynamic page within a tab?
To create a "dynamic" page within a tab is pretty easy. Install the Developer's App and create a new application. There are tons of posts all over google about creating new Facebook apps, so you should be able to find those pretty easily.
After you create a new application, you set up the Tab information for it under "Facebook Integration."
The way tabs work is they create an iFrame in the Facebook canvas that loads a page from your webserver. You can do whatever you want within that iframe to make a dynamic page. Also, since it's an iframe, you can have links that go all over the place and build a whole mini-site which works inside the Facebook canvas.
Basically, you do the same thing you would normally do to create a dynamic page/site, and set up a Facebook application that points to it. There are a few caveats to building Facebook applications, but they're hard to enumerate without specific scenarios. The biggest one (and it's well documented) is that the size of a tab is 520px wide, so whatever you build has to fit within that width. The length can be whatever you want, Facebook has APIs in place that let you automatically resize the iframe as needed.
Good luck, and welcome to Facebook programming. Prepare to rip your hair out, because everything changes every 4-6 weeks :x
