Traffic died after 4 days - placement campaign

    Hi,

    recently I've started my first placement targeted campaign and it was ok. I made a little profit, but after approx. 4 days of good traffic, it died and daily clicks gone to 0.

    Now I thought it was maybe because competition or whatever, but I decided to make a little test. I deleted the campaign, registered a new domain name and made a new campaign from scratch.

    Then again, I got good traffic for approx. 4 days and it died again from one day to another to 0 clicks a day...


    FYI. the placement campaign targeted 1 website, ctr was OK for a placement targeted campaign I guess (around 0,25% ctr)

    Any ideas why this happens?

    yo, me neither. That's why I'm so baffled... It's my first placement targeted campaign so I don't know what is normal. IDK can it be a QS issue? But I thought QS isn't that hard on content network?

    What can it be? :confused:

    What were your clickthrough rates?

    I saw a similar affect, not 0 clicks but dramatically less because my CTR was dismal...

    There is no typical QS on placement campaigns but your placements, and position depends a lot on CTR.

    maybe the advertiser banned your site.

    This happens for many reasons.

    1. Your product or services conflict

    2. Your CTR sucks and they are losing money with your crappy creative
