on your web page or you want to block your competitor's ads on your page, use google adsense

#4 Section Targeting
If your web page has lots of unrelated keywords (menu, other affiliate links etc) you would like
Adsense to exclude for pulling advertisements or you would like put put more emphasis on certain
sections of content, use Section targeting.
Make sure that you've enough content on your web page. Section targeting works only between
< body >
< /body > tags of a web page.
Here is what google says about section targeting :-
To implement section targeting, you'll need to add a set of special HTML comment tags to your code.
These tags will mark the beginning and end of whichever section(s) you'd like to emphasize or deemphasize
for ad targeting.
The HTML tags to emphasize a page section take the following format:
You can also designate sections you'd like to have ignored by adding a (weight=ignore) to the starting
tag:
With these tags added to your HTML code, your final code may look like the following:
This is the text of your web page. Most of your content resides here.
You can use section targeting to make suggestions about as many sections of a page as you like.
However, please be aware that we can't guarantee results, and that it may take up to 2 weeks before our
crawlers take into account any changes you've made to your
#5 Put Less Ads / Less Links
Don't put all ads allowed by google. Use 1 or 2 ad blocks. 336 x 280 Large Rectangle ads on the top
left of the page works best for me.
Don't give too many links to the other sites. (I'm still doing that mistake - eventually I'll correct).
Chances of getting your ads clicked get reduced.
Since this was a short tip, I'll add few “general' tips most of the Adsense Publishers already know - and
in case you don't know.
(1) Don't click on your own ads
(2) Make borders and background the same color as your website
(3) Use link color that stands out on your page
(4) Add more quality content with good related keywords
(5) Learn how google adwords work. You'll get pretty good idea how adsense displays ads and how
you could make MORE money.
That's it friend
