After upgrading to v5 and moving to Cloudflare I see absolutely terrible adsense performance.

The traffic, ctr and other vitals are unchanged but ad quality and page RPM degraded beyond what I have seen in decades.

Is it possible something in the Cloudflare setup blocks adsense from crawling the content properly for contextual ads and we end up in generic, terrible quality ads?

For example when I try to preview a url in adsense, it can never ever load the url after the move to cloadflare. here is a screenshot. Does anyone else having similar issues?

I am logged in, but these urls are not for members only, do not act differently in any way for logged in members or guests.

@virap1 maybe this has something to do with your problem

Many Google Ads Accounts Not Serving Ads

Since March 1st, there are many Google Ads accounts that are not serving ads. The Google Ads forum is filled with complaints about this and as far as I can tell, I cannot find a single response fr...

I think the useragent for the preview might be "GoogleAdSenseInfeed". So it will be great to make sure that is whitelisted along with all their ip ranges.

There also the issue of high server connectivity issue I shared above in a screenshot. On some days it shows as high as almost 20% and that is going to be an issue with a lot of websites.

Because in cloud hosted setup we don't have access to our access logs i can't provide that information.

But you can certainly research the access log. I am sure there is a lot with that kind of high fail rate on multiple dates.

We need to know what response they are seeing on their end. I've taken a look at blocks here, and Im not seeing anything

Hi,

I'm in the same situation. @virap1 , did you get any solution?

The cloudflare related crawling error issue was resolved by Invision. Everything else is still an issue

You mentioned an issue with since cloudflare implementation and said those are resolved. What is the 'everything else' part here?

Marc for example the adsense preview tool not working, adsense auto ads stopped working right after the upgrade (which may or may not be related to the upgrade)

Those are items you really need to bring up with adsense. Of course if there is actionable information you can give to us following those conversations, we can certainly take a look at those, but at present what we are saying is adsense items are not working.
