Curious...

The most clicked (also CTR about 10%)ad on my campaign started slowing down yesterday. And today was having no prints at all. I tried everything higher bid, higher daily budget....but nothing. Checked every aspect I could remember and that I read here...found nothing wrong.

Solution- new identical ad. All OK and I guess adwords by default still uses the prior CTR data because the ad is 2nd from the start.

What could have happened?

thks in advance

Could be your high CTR is coming from partner sites NOT Goggle search.

Have a look through the forum and you will find a number of threads on this issue.

Well, stopped showing again... The ad is setup to show on google search and partner sites search. Itīs not showing on google and on the site where the most traffic usualy comes....

what about now?.....

thks

The site where the traffic mostly comes from might have opted out of your ad using a filter. Is this site a competitor in any way?

[JoaoJose]

That website is actually an ISP's portal so that wouldn't happen. Anyway the ad didn't show on google either, no prints at all.

It is actually showing again, let's hope it stays this way.

Still would like to hear some opinions about this...

[JoaoJose]

Well got the solution...heheh

When an ad stops showing remember: Look at the text ad itself just to see if it's really there....hehe

I don't know how but I deleted the text ad so nothing was showing.

I wonder what the google guy who answered my email thought....
