Is this a bug?

My cost keeps fluctuating up and down. I'll check it and it will be high, then log in a check it a little later and it will be lower, and then back up again.

What would cause this?

I wish google would give us our costs more precisely. Like the exact time and the cost of each click.

Ok - this is really weird. I've just opened up my campaign in two seperate browsers, and refreshed them both, and they are both showing different costs.

Is your date set correctly? Adwords randomly change the date on me and gives me a heart attack when I see a full days worth of costs at 9 am haha.

Make sure you are looking at the same day.

venrooy, you didn't mention what costs you were referring to - but I think there is a good chance that wedouglas in on the right track.

Actually, I have never known this to randomly change. Date range is actually a "sticky" setting that'll stay exactly where you put it till you change it again.

So you may very well see different settings from one session to the next, but what date range you will see when you log in depends on where it was set when you last logged out.

If that isn't the way it's working, I'm sure the tech folks would love to look at your account. ;)

It may be my own ie settings. I closed my ie and reopened it, and all was well.

Is there a way to find out the exact time and cost of each click?
