    Hi guys,

    I started adwords a month ago. I put few campaigns and they run OK.
    I been adjusting them etc. Then after one of the modifications they stopped running. They show active, but no clicks for couple of days.

    I contacted google. They said they might be under review. But nothing indicates that they are under a review..Status is Active.

    So, I created 2 more campaigns and they don't run for like 4 days already. Even though status is Active. Google did not tell me exactly. All they say is our teams are working hard to apply same criteria to ads?!...

    Anyone has an idea or experienced similar?

    Thanks

    Suspended? I would think there would be an indication of it? Or at least they would notify me. It's really weird.

    Campaigns are keyword targeted, but run only on content networks because I set a low bid - so they would not show in search.

    I had a voucher when I first time signed up. New campaigns were running OK, this all started after I did keyword modifications to them few times.

    Note that content targeted ads have to be manually reviewed by adwords staff to show on content network. They're doing this cause only family safe ads are allowed on this network (no porn, ANY nudity, etc.). So try to send them an email or contact them by chat to ask them to review your ads and you'll see wht they'll reply. If there's something else, they should tell you or send you a disapprovel email.

    This being said, it's now obvious that it's highly recommended not to modify any ad already running on the content. It's better to create a new adgroup or adtext and keep the already running ones in the meantime...

    Hi,

    I have had this happen to several of my ad groups over the last week. It got to the point where I rang up Google in Sydney Australia to ask them what was up, It was simply they where reviewing my entire account in one hit so all ads had been stopped for a day. I was told if it isn't getting clicks after a few hours on the content network to simply edit the ad and remove a comma or change it slightly. It will get automatically resubmitted and hopefully in a few hours should be appearing. I have done this and it has worked ok for me.
