Hello,

I'd like to sign up for an adwords account in another language than the spoken language from the country I'm billed in.

So actually I use my creditcard and residence information from the country I'm located in.. but I want to receive emails or other notifications from adwords(country) I also want to talk with the adwords staff in my own language (not the adwords staff from my billing country)

I want to know if this is possible, hope to get some information about this here.

forzatio,

Changing the language selection in the drop down right above the 'Sign Up Now' button on the AdWords home page should allow you to dictate what language is used for your account and email notifications. As far as contacting AdWords support, our team covers an amazing number of languages, so we should be able to connect you with an appropriate support team member. What language we will respond to you in can be completely separate from the default language for your billing address.

Hello, let's say I place ads in another language, they must be read by someone that speaks this language, how can I make sure that I have immediately my ads reviewed by someone that speaks that language.
I don't want to change account settings later for this purpose, because some reviewer from my residence country checks those ads.

Also I would like to know if I can use my creditcard that is registered in another country.
Can I use my current resident information as I'm living in another country at the moment for that creditcard?

Might be a bit complicated but I want to do it right, I don't really like waiting because of any faults that I make during signup processes.

forzatio,

Regardless of where your accounts billing information is based, your ads will be routed to an editorial rep based on the language used in the ad text and keywords. You don't have to worry about that aspect of it.

Hey I'm just wondering how google deals with ads in different languages.

Let's say I suddenly place some ads in chinese and african, while I have danish specified in my account..

I don't understand how google adwords could know which reviewer from which country should review these ads.

It would be very useful if changing languages was more intuitive when you're locked into the wrong language.

If you get stuck in the wrong language, navigating to the language selection and choosing another language is not an easy process (yes, it's the same process - but you have to remember exactly where the language settings are without having to read the navigational aspects of the screen).

The same goes for analytics.

With more and more firms handling accounts in multiple countries, it would be useful if you could store your preferred language at the Google account level, instead of at the AdWords/Analytics level.
