Review ads

In the Ad review center, make sure the "Status" filter is set to "Allowed". You now have a list of the unreviewed ads that have appeared on your site in the last 30 days. Note that ads must have received at least a small number of impressions to be eligible for review.

You can sort your unreviewed ads in different ways. Click Sort by and select an option:

• Most impressions: Ads are ranked according to the number of impressions that they've received. Using this option means that the ads you review first are the ads that have appeared most often. Very recent impressions may take some time to be reflected in the ordering.
• Prioritized for review: Ads are prioritized based on potentially sensitive content or because we predict they might have a high number of impressions in the future. Using this option means you review the most important ads first.
• Highest revenue: Ads are ranked according to the revenue they've received. Using this option means that the ads you review first are the ads that have the highest revenue.

Review the ads on the page. Check the number of impressions for each ad to understand the impact of blocking it.

You can also click an ad to view more details about it. In the ad detail view you can view a full size preview of the ad and information such as its size, type, destination URL, and Google Ads account.
