Although two of the campaigns are new, five others are exisitng campaigns that have performed quite well. Sometime last week all seven campaigns stopped recieving any impressions whatsoever. some of the keywords are quite popular and the amounts I have bid are estimated by Google to be within top 3 ad spots.
I have upped the campaign spend, widen my Geo-targetting and turned off filtering by language. Still no luck.
As a last resort I emailed Google but they haven't been bothered to reply. Has anyone else seen anything similar?
I thinking maybe they may be capping my spend because I am a relatively new user (three months) and my overall spend increased significantly this month.
That may apply in my case because my impressions are at about 150,000 but if you exclude deleted campaigns it is just at about 100,000
Just curious how does this review differ from the normal review that occurs for each ad? Cause when i started out i had a few ads rejected for Excessive Capitalisation :-), using "online" etc...
We also wrote to google, and they have not yet responded. However, it has not been the 24 hours in which they say will respond yet.
I have no clue why this is happening, but a manual review sounds logical.
Also note that google updated their adwords mechanism recently (message was posted about ongoing update as you were trying to log in yesterday), and few things have been funny.
If anyone knows for sure what's going on, please let us know by posting here.
With every good wish,
