Category filtering in Adsense is a feature that gives publishers the ability to block ads that fall into specific categories
Regardless of how ads are targeted, they’ll be filtered if they’re within one of the selected categories.
There is a good news if you’re an international publisher who’s been waiting for category filtering.
Google Adsense is expanding the feature’s availability worldwide. It’s currently available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, and Arabic. In addition, we’re beginning to roll this out in beta for Chinese, Japanese, Polish, Portuguese, and Russian.
The feature is still in beta though.
With category filtering, you can prevent ads from up to 11 specific categories from appearing on your pages.
How To Use This Feature?
- Sign in to your AdSense account
- Visit your Ad Review Center, located under the ‘AdSense Setup’ tab.
- Click change and you’ll be able to view the full list of categories you can filter.
In addition, you can see the percentage of revenue and ad impressions you’ve been receiving from each category in the last 30 days; this information can help you understand the impact that applying filters might have.
If you are using this feature please let us know how did it affect the performance.
