These setting will give you an option to block unwanted categories and Ad networks showing ads on your blog.
You can block ads based on the categories, which is a good option to not show unrelated ads to your readers. The more related ads you will show to your readers, the best chance that they will click on that ad.
There are standard categories and you can just switch off the unrelated categories, there are sensitive categories are also which you can turn on and off.
You can also do the same to the ad networks, there are so many ad networks but if you want to block some, go ahead and do that.

This is a section where you can revisit the individual ads and decide if you want to block any specific ads.
This section also shows what ads has been displayed on your blog under shown ads and you can check if you are getting any unrelated ads on your blog.

Google adsense can be very picky and I think it’s the worst for hiding the ads you don’t want. I just won’t use them as a source of revenue.

I didn’t know that there are ways to nlog unwanted adsense ads. Well maybe because i am still newby to the blogging world. Thanks for this. Another great info for someone like me.
How can I be so late about this? I only found out about blocking low-performing ads just now! Thanks for this article though. At least now, I can optimize my earning potentials.
I already blocked unrelated ads which are showing in my site. Thanks for sharing good adsense tips
I think we should not block low performing ads as we don’t have idea of which are low performing. I have experimented on this option in the past but blocking advertisers means drop in CPC as you will not find many advertisers to bid on your ads.
You can’t expect all your adsense ads to be highly targeted. If you are opened to everything, you are inviting advertisers to bid more on your website.
It depends on how many ads you are getting and some are unrelated to your domain which will not perform well or distract your readers. Its good to keep an eye and take action accordingly…
It is very helpful to know strategies in maximizing profit. Blocking low performing adsense ads provide efficiency. You would want your user to click the highest paid ad whenever he goes to your website, of course.
The unrelated ads in a way degrade the very purpose of the website. The true essence of the site is left in vain because of such ads. Thanks for providing this step-by-step guide to abstain from such ads.
Thanks for sharing this guide, Sanjeev! I have a number of non-performing, unrelated and offensive ads that I seriously need to take care of and this has been most useful. Bookmarked. Thanks again!

Great post! Ads are a crucial factor in any online business, so you need to make sure they’re doing well, else they’re just useless. Thanks for the advice!
Great post just what I was looking for. Some of the ads I get on my site are never going to get any revenue. I can’t do this now but have saved this page so I can do it when I get home.
