AdWords goes kaput again?

Ads are offline/ No impressions

[vibgyor79]

A couple of hours back, I logged into my account and saw "AdWords will go offline for 5 minutes". Something must've gone wrong there - my ads have gone offline and there have been no clicks/impressions so far today.

I have emailed Customer service of course.

Anybody else has this problem?

BUMP!

Problem still persists! Anybody listening? :(

I have the same problem today. AdWords brings me a lot of traffic but sometimes nothing works.... don't ask me why.

We have over 2500 adwords and are having a terrible time with Google keeping them working today (Tuesday, November 11th). Anyone else having issues where they work for a few minutes and then disappear for an hour? At this point, our traffic has been cut in half for the day, which is a bad thing.

We have no pricing or budget issues causing the problem and truely believe it to be a technical issue on their side of the fence. Anyone else in the same boat?

Thanks!

My problem has been sorted out by Customer Service. It was a technical problem allright - they inexplicably shutdown my account for 3 days.

Anyway, things are running smoothly now!

Librarian: You are not able to see your ads because of one of these reasons -

1) Your budget limit is too low
2) The keyword is extremely competitive. If you don't find it on the first page, check page number 2 of the results.
3) A technical glitch with your account.

It's Wednesday and we are still having trouble with our Adwords displaying in a sporadic fashion. 80% of these words have no competition and the budget is not even close to being a constraint. Our best guess is Google installed some new software Tuesday morning - and since then life has not been good. We have spoke to Google numerous times and they don't yet have a technical explanation - but they do see we are having the problem. Yesterday, we received 40% less traffic than we normally get from this program.

Clearly, it's only causing you and HuhuFruFru problems, otherwise everyone would be over this thread.

Thanks for keeping us updated.

Just to complete the thread of discussion, Adwords fixed our problems last night and all has been good today.
