Using LiteSpeed Cache with AdSense

When showing ads on a website, we can boost its speed by combining the Cache with AdSense. Cache and AdSense, however, may clash, making it difficult to monitor or show ads. This is because AdSense’s JavaScript code, which is vital for showing and watching ads, may be affected by Litespeed’s optimization methods.

LiteSpeed Cache-AdSense Conflict

The symptoms we may face include:

i. After turning on the Cache, We may not see any ads on the page.

ii. Due to caching problems, ad impressions and clicks may not be reliably recorded.

How to Fix the Conflict?

JS Exclusion

i. Go to LiteSpeed Cache settings.

ii. Find “JS Excludes” or similar under JS optimization.

iii. Add AdSense code snippets (typically starting with googletag.pub) to the exclusion list.

iv. Save changes and clear the LiteSpeed cache.

Disable Caching for AdSense Pages

i. If JS exclusion doesn’t work, disable caching for AdSense-heavy pages.

ii. In LiteSpeed Cache settings, find options for page caching or URL exclusions.

iii. Add the URLs of the AdSense-heavy pages to the exclusion list.

iv. Save changes and clear the cache.

Testing and Verification

i. Visual Verification: Ensure AdSense ads display correctly on the site.

ii. AdSense Dashboard: Monitor impressions and clicks to confirm tracking is functioning.
