AdSense won't render on some URLs

Question

I have a website with standard design, basically same on all pages except for main content part.

Now, I have two types of posts and source code behind it is the same except for some validations, but first post type has 2 url segments, and second has 3 url segments.

I'm using DFP to serve ads, and on pages with 3 segments, AdSense ads won't show up. Other custom ads show up with no problem, and AdSense ads show up fine on all other pages.

Also DFP seems to render ad slot, but it just comes up empty.

My website is written in Laravel 4 (but it probably doesn't matter)

Any idea why won't adsense render?

Answer 1

It could be possible that some pages do not have enough content and google can not determine the topic in order to show ads.

In your ads settings find: "Backup ads". And check "Fill space with solid color". In this case if google does not have to show any ads you will see the chosen color in your ads.
