    I just set up a new adwords account. campaign was active and all 19 keywords were active, but there is no impression at all. What is the problem?

    keywords I chose are low to medium competitive and I bid just a little bit above the minimum CPC. Also everything is active, no warning, no alert. I don't know what went wrong.

    Can somebody help?

    How many impressions have you received? Maybe your ad text isn't relevant? How long ago did you start your campaign?

    I started it 2 days ago. and keywords are relevant, but "0" impression. I just use the same ads on yahoo, which has no problem at all.

    if you bid *just* above the minimum CPC, chances are your ad won't get very many impressions. Bid high initially, then when you get a reasonable CTR you can start lowering it.

    Check the diagnostic tool and see what it tells you. If you have questions about what it says post them here.

    I would also suggest reading this over.

    Are you bidding in the Search or Content network, or both?

    I know in the CN that if you dont bid high enough you get 0 impressions.

    So try bidding higher......and if no result email or call Google support....sometimes it gets lost in reviewing and needs someone to kickstart it.

    Also an edit of the ad copy or url will cause it to be queued again for review and hopefully restarted. It works for me.

    And if pain persists call your doctor. :cool:

    No probs.

    Quick Tip: To check that all ads are still approved and running (even after they have been initially approved.....yes they sometimes disapprove later :rolleyes: ).....go to Tools/Disapproved Ads to check nothing is in there, or check any Alerts you get in your Campaign Summary page. :cool:

    Your bid might be low.
