I can find my ad with the keywords yet I have 5 impressions

[richiwatts]

I signed up for an Adword account about 8 hours ago and I can't see anything, I have contacted support but have had no reply.

I have just signed in the check my account and it say I have had 5 impressions. I checked one of my keywords again and nothing!

The thing is I am not sure if I have set it up properly.
In the "traffic estimator" the click/day looks like this for both current and forcast:
<0.1

For the keywords I have just added 4 words seperated by space all on the same line, exactly like this:

widgte1 widget2 widget3 widget4

Is this wrong?

Thanks for any advice.

What's your browser language set to? Which Google site do you use, and what target audience did you choose?

[richiwatts]

I have it set on all languages and all countries.
I am checking at google.com and from withing the google toolbar.

Have I set the keywords properly?

Sorry i have had no impressions when the keywords are set as they are. I was looking at the wrong thing.

So what am I doing wrong?

Use a line for each keyword, not just 1 line.

Assuming you are interested in people who look for Widget1 OR Widget2 OR Widget3 or Widget4 then it should be setup as :-

widget1
widget2
widget3
widget4

If you set your daily limit to say $1 you might not see it when ya search.

re-set to $100 and search
then re-set it back to whatever.

They try to deliver over a 24 hour period based upon your daily spend.

Thanks guys. It worked once I put each keyword on each line.

All countries/all languages.....

What are you selling?

No exact match or phrase match?

Yikes, that is the ultimate recipe for a big credit card bill.

I know that Mike_Mackin said to set your daily limit to $100, but you need to be really careful doing that with all the safety mechanisms off.

Just my 2 cents worth.
