Earlier this week we reported Problems & Solutions for Google Referral Ads via a WebmasterWorld thread.

Since then, the thread has grown to a point where AdSenseAdvisor has come up with a nice list of features and fixes they would like to implement. Here is the list AdSenseAdvisor has complied:

Finding ads
- Improve the search feature, including letting me search by types of ads
- Make it easier for me to identify new referral products

Ad categories
- Categorize advertiser ads more accurately
- Consider having sub-categories and then allowing me to default up a level when ads run out in the sub-category

When an ad runs out...
- Find a way to tell me if the ad I chose is running out or already ran out of budget
- Make sure that I'm not being shown unselected ads when I unchecked 'Pick best performing ads'
- Give me an option to substitute in something else

Quality of the advertisements
- Get advertisers to create attractive landing pages
- Make sure Google Product referrals are showing properly
- Remove the blue border under the Google Product referrals
- Let me exclude specific referrals when selecting 'Pick best performing ads'

Other
- Be more clear that Network Performance indicates how well an ad has performed for publishers across AdSense
- Give me a way to change ad units without generating and re-pasting the code
