What makes it even worse, even after reporting them, and getting Google employee’s acknowledgment about invalid display URL, they either stay there or reappear.
Since this is an old story, being repeated so many times, caused by same people again and again, two main questions are still in place, just as they’ve been two years ago:
- When will Google start disapproving existing ads with invalid display URL, and disapproving newly submitted right away?
- When will Google start with terminating accounts that have violated the policy on multiple occasions?
Google AdWords: What makes you do this job so badly?!
invalid URLs are ok
What's your definition of it?
When I say invalid display URL, I mean blabla.com in display URL while landing page is gugu.com.
We never talk about what you put to be your destination URL inside your ad, that can be anything, for any reason. Redirects are fine, even if you have 18 of them.
The point of my initial post was that Google AdWords is acting against its own policy, period. In this case, Google's act is "doing nothing".
How much simpler can this be:
- - Make any ad with mismatching Display URL's and Destination URL's need to go through manual review before going live.
