What does it take to get an AdSense rep? Google has two levels of exclusive publishers. More than 20 million pageviews a month will give you the opportunity to negotiate a CPM-based contract and get custom ad formats.
However, far less than that can get you a rep and (potentially) custom ad formats.
I've been trying forever to at least get a rep to no avail. Giving them roughly 20 million impressions a month (half content, half referrals).
I'm always passing my business card to all of the Google reps at Ad:Tech, SES, etc, but I don't know what to do beyond that. Can anyone hook me up? :)
Have you tried "AdSense Help" at Google Groups?

unfortunately you won't get like an account manager unless you're making a lot of money (ie. google are making a lot of money)
i second the direction towards google groups.

Will try posting there. Do you think it will come off as too forward, though? I mean, I am definitely making decent money with Google. What is "a lot" of money, though?

definitely try posting there. if you're clearing a thousand or two bucks a day I'd definitely call them up on the telephone :)
ps. thousand bucks a day is not stellar but i would say its enough to shake em up :)

What is "a lot" of money, though?If you've got the kind of membership and traffic (like number of current visitors) your site indicates, I'd say you need to talk to someone based on the amount of traffic.
Don't know about being forward, but it's in your profile (and I'm familiar with your site, it so happens), so I think you'd be well advised to get some advice on moving forward even further with Google for your site.

A lady geek: stellar! ;)
Have you emailed adsense-support to ask about speaking with a rep?

google would be btards NOT to get in touch and help you out, especially if that is how you're choosing to monetize your site.

Thanks for your suggestions, everyone.
I emailed adsense-support mid 2007, and got a generic message that more or less said don't call us, we'll call you. We have grown a good amount since then, though.
Does AdSense even have a phone number??

Surely you'll get somewhere, especially with that number of impressions. Would love to know how you get on :)
