Hello,
We are looking into the issue but we don't have a position to share on
how/when this issue will be addressed yet. The Orkut team has debated it a
lot with the AdSense team since the beginning of this thread and we'll keep
you updated on the progress.
Thanks for your input and continued support!

Hi Bruno,
Will the Orkut team work on resolving the Adsense crawler problems? In
order for app developers to support Orkut we need to make money on the
platform. To make money we need targeted ads. If Google's Adsense crawler
can't crawl pages then those ads have very low rpm.
At one point I know the Google Adsense for Games team was using Orkut
user profile data to target ads on application pages. I know because we use
Adsense for Games on BuddyPoke.. But I'm guessing, based on the drop of rpm
that Orkut is now completely blocking Adsense's crawlers, including Adsense
for Games? Why can't Google Adsense servers access Google Orkut pages?
Please help?
Thanks
Dave @ BuddyPoke

Hi Bruno
Following this thread discussion let me clarify the main issue:
*.orkut.gmodules.com/gadgets
urls are behind a login so adsense crawler can't access these pages
while trying to crawl adsense ads on app pages.
If it is unable to crawl using adsense ads is not effective on app pages.
Is there any workaround?
It is impossible to define a crawler login for google hosted urls in
adsense configuration.
thanks

Hello,
So, I've been discussing this with the engineers here. Adsense crawlers
don't crawl over authenticated pages (right?). So, even if
/Application.aspx were not blocked, it would not be able to crawl it. So,
isn't this warning spurious? That is, the fact that Application.aspx is
blocked shouldn't alter your ads quality at all...
Or am I mistaken?
Thanks!

Hi Bruno
thanks for the update
Please update this thread if you make any decisions or changes about
this.
I think it crawls the page where the ad markup appears plus sometimes
the parent page if it the former is iframe.
Adsense cralwer errors are reported to the publisher, so I can see
where it fails. If you need any info let mwe know.
thanks

Hello,
Thanks for the explanation, it clarified the finer points of how the
adsense crawler works which I wasn't aware of. I assumed it crawled the
landing page only, not the page on which the ad appears. We'll look
into
it. Thanks!

Any update on the issue?
The minimum orkut team should do is fix the bug of
requestNavigateTo implementation
Currently requestNavigateTo redirects to /Application.aspx instead
of /Application and it blocks adsense crawler.
I'd suggest to work closely with adsense team, you're the same
company, I can't coordinate your internal cooperation.
Just ask Adsense team how much crawler errors do they get on
google.com.br, I bet there are billions.
Please fix and update, otherwise it makes counterproductive to use
adsense on apps.
thanks

We do not plan to modify robots.txt at the moment... but as far as
I understand, the crawler would not need to crawl over /Application,
because /PublicAppInfo does *not* automatically redirect to
/Application unless the user is logged in and has the app installed.
Since the crawler is not an Orkut user, this redirection would not
happen and it would never see /Application or any other page. At
least
that's how it *should* happen :-) I've tested /PublicAppInfo
myself while not logged in (which mimics the way the adsense crawler
would
see it) and indeed it does not perform any redirections that I could
tell...
Thanks!
