4 days back i changed my destination URLs and introduced image ads.

since then, the impressions and clicks have come down to about a third. (acceptable since change needs to be approved for partners)

the strangest part is my content numbers are all negative! negative impressions, negative clicks, and even negative cost. i have no clue what this means.

anyone has a similar experience? or any thoughts as to what adwords is trying to tell me?

thanks in advance...

Heya Stormer. This is certainly a new one on me, and I don't recall ever having heard of negative stats before.

I'd suggest contacting AdWords support, and including a screen shot if at all possible. They'll either be able to give you an answer based on a look at the account - or, if need be, send it along to the tech folks for a deeper look.

I hope you'll Let us know what you hear!
