Improvements in Google Adsense

Google has recently updated the Adsense feature list and introduced a lot of new stuff on Publisher's feedback. These updated include category based ads, blocking a specific category and many more. Adsense developers also been developing a new version of the AdSense interface. Although the interface is currently in beta, it addresses many of the requests of Publishers that were given on the Product Ideas page.

Summary

• The AdSense for content and AdSense for search revenue shares are now publicly shared.
• Category blocking (previously known as category filtering) is now available in 13 languages. You can filter up to 11 ad categories, including religion, dating, politics and weight loss.
• You can make requests to change the country of your payment address directly in the new AdSense interface. (Due to legal and system constraints, some country updates will still require you to create a new account.)
• The new AdSense interface offers Ad units, Ad sizes, and Ad types reports in the Performance Reports tab. These detailed reports cam help you understand which individual ad units, ad sizes, and ad types perform best on your site.
• The new AdSense interface includes a date range selector just like Google Analytics. Plus, to see how your earnings have changed over time, we also have a feature that allows you to compare two date ranges. Simply select the date range you want to compare, check “Compare to other dates”, fill in the start date, and we’ll fill in the end date for you!
• Reports by week and month, in addition to by day, are available in the Performance Reports page. Along with reports for “Entire account by day” you can choose from weeks and months.
