Adwords Keyword Sandbox not working anymore

Whatever keyword I enter it says it was not searched for

[zgb999]

I tried to find new keyphrases for a campaign but whatever word I am entering (I even tried words like car or e-commerce...) the system is saying the word was not searched for.

I am not getting any error message or so it is just that the traffic estimator seems to be broken.

Anybody else experiencing this?

Yes, see [webmasterworld.com...]

Thank you!

I missed that post as it was about a new feature and not about a sandbox error.

It looks like Google is expecting people to go to Webmasterworld as they are not giving any error message...

Thanks, zgb999, I appreciate your alert.

Engineering is working on this now, and I hope for results before too long.

still down on my end...

You are right, it gives some strange results. I thought it was working again as I get numbers again.

But when I want to see the potential for a certain country I get a traffice estimate which is exactly the same as the traffic it shows when I am looking at traffic from all countries of the world (only that the country I was looking at is very small and would not have 100 % of all searches for a keyword...)

Zgb999, I've just responded to similar observation here: [webmasterworld.com...]

(Didn't see your question until just now.)
