is christmas slowing AdWords?

[hudson]

seems I got to log in every few minutes. Poor Google needs to tweak it's servers ;-)

[hudson]

let's make that every other request

I am experiencing the exact same thing. Adwords continually boots me out and I have to re-enter my username and password. It happens on almost every page request so I am just giving up for now.

It was beginning to do this even prior to their "upgrades" over the weekend. Hopefully AdwordsAdvisor can chime in.

This problem is really frequent with Adwords. Today it's just horrible.

AWA picked up on this in another thread a week ago and was going to follow up on it. Maybe he should try again.

I was booted out twice in one session this morning.

[bakedjake]

ya, it's pretty much slowed to unusable for me too.

Doesn't give you a lot of confidence in the adword ad serving engine/accounting systems if the user interface portion is so highly unreliable, does it?

I gave up trying to review/update my campaign/ad group settings this morning. Too slow, too many logins, and too many "we're sorry..." message in the middle of pages.

[AdWordsAdvisor]

Hi all,

Thanks for the 'early alerts' for slowness & log-outs. Engineering is hard at work on this, and I'll post again when I know more.

Thanks for your patience in the meantime.

Same problem here. It was a wonky weekend, but I thought it would be better today.

I just gave up after having to relog in over 5 times.

[bakedjake]

Thanks AWA. If it helps, the majority of my problems this morning have come from trying to delete keywords, or when sorting the keywords page by CTR and spend (100 per page).

Well, thank you for dropping by and letting us know...nothing worse than to be in the dark.

I just had something happen to me that really concerns me.
I finally got logged into my account, and when I clicked
on one of my ad campaigns, it took me to a page for
someone else's account. The page was in a different
language. Hope no one else can get into my account.

[hudson]

ouch...that is scary!

[AdWordsAdvisor]

I'm checking back here frequently, and I'll continue to forward these comments to engineering.

wayne, any chance you could summarize what has happened in an email, sent through the 'Contact Us' link in your account?

If you do write, would you also please ask that the email be copied to AdWordsAdvisor. For certain, we want to follow up on this. In my 18 months with AdWords, I've never heard of this happening - and no other cases reported this morning. Still, I'd like to follow up.

Many thanks.

Driving me nuts too. Getting either a 'temporary server error - please try again in 30 secs', a 'engineering have been notified' error, or being logged out immediately after logging in. Best I've managed today is 8 pages loading in a row successfully...

[Robsp]

Same here, I'm being kicked out every other request. This is going on since late last week.

May I suggest to slow down on the new stuff and keep the system workable...

It looks like the engineers are running the feature show (and they shouldn't).....

[wayne]

AWA,

As soon as I can get logged into my account again, I will
send an email through the contact us link.

AWA,

I just got logged in and did send an email. I also asked them to send a copy of this to you.

I don't know what Adwords did, but I am liking it this
afternoon. I am converting 1 in every 29 visitors into
sales.
