AdWords down?

[hdpt00]

Can't connect to even the front page... Does this signal a big update or just screwed up right now?

[kea12345]

No Idea, but I can not login.

Traceroute comes up fine, must be a sever problem?

[tbk106]

I haven't been able to connect since this morning. I'm also have some adwords campaign's which have disappeared from the serp's as I see has happened to other people.
Mucho problems @ the googleplex?

[Tropical Island]

It seems to be working fine here.

[StickyNote]

Down here. from 10AM PST USA - 1:28PM (present time)

[Murdoch]

Definitely down EAST COAST REPRESENT! Approx for 2 hours (currently 4:36pm Maine-side)

[netmeg]

It's been down for hours for me too (Michigan) - this is a *significant* problem for my clients...

[syber]

It's been down here (Colorado) for hours.

[bostonseo]

Yep down. And I've been on hold for over 20 minutes. I hope the Wall Street Analysts report this :)

[gdawg]

Been down for awhile on the U.S. East Coast. Also, cannot connect to Google Talk or GMail. It looks like the Google might be human after all.

[coho75]

I am in NY and can access AdSense. I haven't tried AdWords or Gmail.

[bostonseo]

I am in Boston and finally got through to a customer service representative. Of course she tried to 'minimize' the size of the outage saying that they've heard some people are having issues. They also won't tell you how long this issue has been ongoing. Why don't companies ever admit the true depth of problems?

[Need3lives]

Down here since at least 10AM PST (Seattle). Gmail ok, Adsense down.

[Marc_P]

it's down in Montreal also since this morning

[CathyM]

It's back up for me now. California.

Adwords still down in Eugene Or 2:51 PM PST

[is300]

i wonder if they have a alternate adwords sub domain available, kinda like the www3 domains.

[whoisgregg]

Adwords, Adsense, Gmail, etc. all down from my home and work in Florida for the last couple hours.

Always times out on the redirect through

https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin?...

[janethuggard]

Adwords and Adsense are both down. We are in South Carolina, been down for hours, now 6:43pm EST.

I bet when they come back up, they are going to have the debit card in placed. The two are tied together with the debit card. It is overdue for launch.

Not only that their stock is slipping on the AOL account loss announcement, and YPN sent out a new wave of invitaions today, to those of us who put ourselves on the list back in the summer. Looks like Yahoo is going to kick em when they are down. Some Google hunkering down is going to be seen, no doubt.

We were one contacted today by YPN. We have YPN on one site already, and so far are very impressed. It is early though to pass judgement. But, initial earnings are beyond expectations.

[StickyNote]

Finally up in Oregon

[arnarn]

Both Analytics and AdWords OK now..

This has been a nasty day for those of us using analytics and their ssl scripts!

[thegreatpretender]

I'm from asia and my stats are stuck for hours.

[whoisgregg]

Back online here.

[bostonseo]

No apology email or anything; not surprising.

[kea12345]

I just got an email from Google apologizing and saying that the outage was related to Y2K.

[jim2003]

While the problem does not seem to be ongoing, I have a small tip if there is a future problem. When adwords.google.com is down, I have always been able to log into either adwords.google.co.uk or adwords.google.it

[whoisgregg]

It wasn't actually that adwords.google.com was down (or any of the other services that were affected), it was the login script that was timing out.

I suspect the problem was related to the recent integration of Google Accounts into all the services.

[AdWordsAdvisor]

It wasn't actually that adwords.google.com was down (or any of the other services that were affected), it was the login script that was timing out.

Thank you so much for pointing this out, whoisgregg. I'll admit it makes me grit my teeth a tiny bit to see reports that "AdWords is down", when it is actually running as normal apart from a login issue.

This is not to undervalue in any way the pain that you all feel when there are login issues - and for that pain and frustration you have my apology.

I am also sorry that I wasn't around to report on progress in getting things resolved. I haven't been able to read or post on WebmasterWorld for the better part of two days, and this may continue for a while. Technical issues (and no, not related in any way with the login problem!) are beind my absence.

[whoisgregg]

No problem, AWA. ;) Good luck with your current technical issues.
