I'm want to put multiple ads (well two more as well as my main banner) on my site pages. With my first attempts, Adsense seems to put the same adverts in the different slots? Surely its much better to have a range of different adverts - how do I make this happen?

I think you should create different ad unit .. Do not use same ad code on more than 1 places in same webpage.

Sorry, but you cannot control this.

More and varied content plus section targeting is about the only thing you can try.

But if the advertisers aren't there, there is nothing you can do about it.

Displaying more ads on same page may lead to display low-paying ads on your site. It is also possible that same ads is displayed in your page especially if there is only limited number of available ads that is related to your content.

Hi
Thanks for all your advice... all points well taken. I see looking at this very page now that there are two ads for the same product, so perhaps it happens more than I notice.
