Google Slap.everything turned off

[vphoner]

This morning I discovered that my campaigns (all affiliate) have been given poor. Including content. I am no longer receiving clicks. This is quite strange as I have plenty of content, targeting, etc.

Given this situation. What is the best way to immediately restore the campaigns? Do you need to create new campaigns or adgroups, or just put a new domain in older campaigns. Does it pay to create a new adwords account, and do you have to use another name to open it?

Does calling adwords for a manual review help?

Any help appreciated.

You can start all over, but of course you realize, it's very possible (even likely) it'll happen again. And again.

No, calling adwords won't help, and you're probably best just starting off form scratch as form what I've heard it's next to impossible to build an existing slapped campaign back up.

As Netmeg says though, if you don't take action then it'll just happen again, to try and avoid this:

1) use unique content relevant to your KWs
2) place your advertising below the fold
3) make sure your site is designed primarily for the user, not for your advertising

The manual review appears to have been successful as I now have normal keywords and clicks starting to come back. Content clicks have not returned yet. I guess that takes longer.

vphoner... that's great news! Did you call them and if so what did they tell you they would do, if anything?
