Google Adwords Down?? None of my 29 clients ads are running.

    Yesterday when you Googled Google Adwords you were served a message about Adwords being down from 10am-2pm. I thought nothing about the low daily impressions across all clients because of their message.

    Today not a single impression has occurred for my clients and Google's help line claims they do not know the cause of this odd behavior and will get back to me in several days. needless to say 29 clients with no impressions for 25% of a month is not acceptable for business!

    Has anyone else experienced this problem?
    Have you found a way to fix this problem, or have any suggestions?

    It is odd how GMail crashed yesterday, Google Adwords was down, yet Google has no idea what is going on with my clients!

    I also experienced the same... my adcampaigns are showing 0 impressions. i just talked with adwords live support executive but to my surprise she also has not any idea about this. She asked me to wait and they will get back to me within 48 hours and resolve the matter.

    Is it possible that all of your accounts got slapped?

    What industry are you guys in? There has been some changes to some industries and they have turned off adds until the new standards are put into place.

    Whats the min bids on your keywords?

    Has any of your text ads been disapproved? If not wait until they are and it will tell you what the new standards are that you need to bring up to date

    Getting your account slapped does not disable your AD's to show if your bidding high enough. When they slap your account, your MIN CPC is $5-$10.

    Obviously. However, he did not mention raising his bids, so a slap is possible. Also, he did not say they were disabled.

    He said he contacted Google's support team, and they were not able to provide an explanation. If this was a simple slap, then they would have been able to explain the reason easily.
