have you guys looked at your account in the last 20 mins? ive got ad groups with 5-10 keywords showing as DISABLED, whereas a few days ago, they were all showing as "active"

somethings weird afoot!

i called it in to google, but if other ppl are seeing this, it sure helps my case, the lady on the phone kept saying, never heard of this, but if the keywords were disabled before the change over, they stay disabled, and i kept saying, no no no, these happened TODAY, not in the last week, and shes like, well, again, the only time ive ever heard of this problem is when it was disabled before the change.

i think she was skeptical, thinking i just never noticed the 30 or so keywords that were disabled.

believe me, that is something i would definately noticed as i go into each and every ad group on a daily basis.

Ok, no need for any more bumping, I think I found the answer :)

I tested it and found that the historical keyword ctr is maintained (still shows the same on the CTR column).

Searched for the ads and they are still there, at the same position.

You may want to test it to confirm?

thats a good question, and one id like to know that answer to, will our keyword history for these keywords be at all effected (or are they ever?) for them accidently becoming disabled?

Nope.

eyeinthesky is correct, and the history will not have been effected.

All of my accounts are fine. Could this be industry / regional related?

I am also getting tons of keywords disabled - all over the place, it is very frustrating!

Anyone else noticing this in the last few days?

Yes I am getting more and more, but as these terms have never had any searches, I am not too bothered.
