Whenever a visitor clicks a Google Ad on the site, the Ad opens in the same page, replacing my site. And I will loose visitor.
So my question is: can we do something so that whenever a site visitor clicks on a Google Ad, it will open in a new tab ? Is there any script that needs to be changed ? I tried a target="_blank"
but this is also not working
As adsense policy they do not allow Google ads to open in a new window. .
In DoubleClick for Publishers
To change the target window setting for your network:
- In the 'Inventory' tab, click Network settings.
- Click edit next to 'Target window',
- then select '_blank' from the drop-down.
- Click Save.
To change the target window setting in an ad unit:
- Select an ad unit from the 'Inventory' tab.
- Click edit next to 'Target window',
- then select '_blank' from the drop-down.
- Click Save.
