Maybe it's because I have such a niche topic but Google seems to put my keywords on trial awfully fast. I put up a new keyword yesterday and after two impressons and no clicks it's already on trial today. Is this typical? Is there something I can do to get them to give words a chance?

Here is some useful info from the AdWords FAQ:

When does a keyword enter in trial status?
[adwords.google.com...]

What is the AdWords keyword status column?
[adwords.google.com...]

Keyword Evaluation Flow
[adwords.google.com...]

Three Keyword Evaluation Examples
[adwords.google.com...]

Hope this'll help. ;)

It seems strange though that a keyword will be disabled after only 2 impressions. How can they say that it would be statictically verifiable that the work will get less the .05% clicks?

Some of these were words that an Adsense representative suggested I use.

I'm looking at words that only get a few clicks per day so that may be the problem.

I can answer that - they put all accounts on a board and throw darts at the kw. If you're hit, you get "on trial".

At least that's how I feel these days! I'm ready to SCREAM!

Kay, Thanks. It's good to know I'm not alone.
