Has anyonre had any problems with AdWords recently? - GoFuckYourself.com

Have been running several campaigns, some of them just stopped (active with no clicks). Others receive just a few clicks per day (~100 times less than usual). Support doesn't answer. Has anyone had similar problems and have you been successful at AdWords recently?

hmm nothing like that
but I have a campaign thats pending approval for a week now.

I've had a campaign that's listing as active thats recieving no clicks - kind of odd.

I'm still waiting on some new campaigns to start running. Haven't put a call in to my rep yet tho.

Ive seen it all with adwords. I started campaigns that got no clicks whatsoever. And ive had campaigns going from 0 to 500 clicks and vice versa. I wish i knew whats going on there. Dont bother mailing them. You wont get answers.

If you aren't getting any impressions, go to

Tools -> Ads Diagnostic Tool

You may be competing with very similiar campaigns that are getting all of the impressions.

This happens to new campaigns all the time, a quick email to your rep will usually clear things up. Sometimes they land in limbo.

My rep told me that they have a few criteria for instant activation and if you don't meet it with a new campaign it needs human approval which sometimes only comes from your rep

I have man! But the money is still there...weird huh?

elitetec · 03-31-2006, 08:15 AM

What kind of problems?

Tom_PM · 03-31-2006, 08:27 AM

New approvals taking about a week lately it seems, but thats about it really.

yahoo/overture on the other hand, really pisses me off. Trying to start a campaign there and they decline like 15 keywords all leading to the exact same page for a half a dozen random reasons and I'm sick of it. I wonder if they'll even reply with any decent explanation or way to avoid the "submit and cross your fingers" system they have.

I have no clue what they are doing...they reject, approve, reject and approve the same ads over and over.
