# AdWords tip: exclude porn traffic

I don't like it when my AdWords ads are shown on parked domains, or on placeholder sites that pull in traffic through their domain name, especially porn-related ones.

For those who feel the same way, here's a tip.

Go to "**Campaign Summary**", then your campaign. Under the campaign's name there are buttons for targeting settings, negative keywords and "**Site and Category Exclusion**". On the "Sites" tab there, add the list of sites from [this file](https://web.archive.org/web/20090623001448/http://stasparshin.com:80/smfl/adwords_stop_db_v1.txt) (I'll keep adding to it).

On top of that, you can look through the other tabs and, for example, under page types, exclude "Domain hosting sites": parked pages with no content.
