This effectively limits you to precisely 2500 ad groups. They do say there is no hard stop at 100 ad groups per campaign - obviously as I have more than that in one campaign... But I am really looking to get a straight answer as to what the maximum ad group limitation is. I'm afraid that going over 100 per ad group (or 2500 total across 25 campaigns) could serve as a reason to kick you from the program - something I really don't want as the ads I personally use - as well of those of my partners, are quite important to us all. Anyone have any thoughts?
I emailed G about the campaign limit - and during the course of the conversation, I learn that Google asks that advertisers adhere to the recommended maximum of 100 ad groups per campaign.
Correct - 100 Ad Groups is the suggested limit, beyond which you may notice increasing difficulty in navigating within your account.

DingoNY, although there is a 'hard stop' to the number of campaigns, there is not a similar 'hard stop' for Ad Groups. Please let me set your mind at ease, however, regarding exceeding the suggested number. This will not get you 'kicked from the program', I promise you.
What is possible, however, is that one might continue to add Ad Groups to the point where the account is no longer easily navigable.
Hope this'll help you to rest a little more easily. ;)

Thanks AWA. As I said - I have about 200 in one campaign right now - and while I have a very fast network connection, I have not noticed any real performance issues while navigating my account. Some minor delay yes - but overall very responsive.

Thank you - I can now proceed with the other campaigns I was planning. I do wish that the 25 campaign limit was not in place. From an organization standpoint - I'd love to have a much higher number, with much smaller quantities of ad groups within those campaigns.
Hope this'll help you to rest a little more easily. ;)
Totally - thanks so much :)
