Default Adsense Bot Refresh rate?

Does anyone know how often the adsense bot revisits pages?

I'm working on a new site and didn't want any robots to pick up the dodgy content before I'd finished customising things, but now the main page of the site isn't displaying any google ads at all - the subpages are fine

Any thoughts?

use the robots.txt to block them or look for a script to identify the robots or spiders and redirect to some "coming soon" page.

Yes, but I want the bloody robot to visit it now - it's currently displaying great big blocks of colour instead of ads

Is there a setting in Adsense to display like that?

Yes, but that's not the issue.

The issue is that the adsense bot is ignoring the main page so no ads are displaying. I know I could put other ads on there, but I'm being stubborn

Official ways to hide Public Service Ads (PSA)
  • Suggest as altenate colour to display instead of your PSA. This will show an empty space with the background colour you suggest.
  • Suggest an alternate ad to display instead of your PSA. Your ad will show in that space instead of the PSA if their is insufficient content.
  • Place a collapsible ad. This ad will collapse and not show any PSA at all.

Very true, the curse of webmasters knowing what Adsense is.

That's why I keep my eyes peeled for affiliate networks that offer things you lot might be tempted with....
I can see me gradually replacing the adsense on here entirely, as the CTR is always going to be crap
