AdSense for content launches in Catalan

Do you know what language is spoken in parts of Spain, France, and Italy, and is the national language of Andorra? (Ok, we may have made it too obvious with the title above.) We're pleased to let you know that publishers can now display targeted AdSense for content ads on pages in Catalan. Visit the 'AdSense Setup' tab in your account to generate ad code, then paste it onto your pages and let our system take care of the rest.

Although AdSense for search currently isn't available in Catalan, stay tuned for future updates on the blog. In addition, we ask that you direct any questions related to Catalan pages to our Spanish team.

That is great, definitely.

However, I see that the Catalan pages with most traffic are not using adSense and I suspect there are several reasons for that. This notice is a bit old already.

I think you should work on this, since it has a lot of potential and you are missing this part of the market.

To give some numbers I think Catalan is the language number 15th on the internet and it has over 9 million of speakers, more than Danish or other european languages.

To put an example, the Catalan television is on the top of audience in Catalonia, and 99% of ads are in Catalan, all establishments in Catalonia and Barcelona (capital of catalonia) must have its offerings in Catalan. If you go around Barcelona, and Catalonia, most of the ads in the streets are in Catalan.

Keep on the good work!
