Indodpendo, there could be many reasons that your ads are not showing - and from the very limited information here, it's all but impossible to guess what the actual problem(s) might be.

For this reason, I'd suggest contacting AdWords support, by using the 'Contact Us' link in your account. The support team can take a look at your account in detail, and offer you an informed opinion as to what is going on.

With that said, and in no particular order, here are a few of the more common reasons for an account to not get any impressions or clicks (which sounds like it may be the case for you.):

* Account has never been activated with a credit card

* Credit card was declined by the bank

* Campaigns and/or Ad Groups are paused or deleted

* Ad may have been mistakenly deleted, so there is no ad to show

* Max CPC is set higher than (or equal to) Daily Budget

* Campaign end date was set to a date which is now in the past

* Keywords are sensitive in nature, and will not run until ads/keywords have been reviewed and approved

* Keywords are inactive, due to Max CPC being lower than Minimum CPC required to run.

I wish you the best of success with AdWords, btw, once this is squared away. ;)

Hello. Adwords will NOT help your site search via Google regular search results. I'm sorry if someone told you this because it's not true. If you are getting impressions and no clicks, then you need to change your ad copy and try to get better CTR. I think everyone, that is honest, has had this problem when they first joined the program. Over time you will learn what will work and what won't.
