Not getting any impressions for my ad on the content network

Discussion in 'Google AdWords' started by thorie, Aug 7, 2008.

    Hello,

    I set up an Ad on google adwords with several common keywords. However, I'm not getting any impressions. I have the "content network" opted in under the campaign settings. I set max CPC to $0.50.

    Does it need to be higher? Or am I missing a setting somewhere? It says "Active" but for the last few days, the number of impressions is still 0 for all of the keywords.

    Any help appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Tim

    I pumped up max CPC to $5.00 and still no *impressions*. It's so weird. I don't think Max CPC is a factor here... Something else is going on.

    Content network campaigns can take anywhere from a couple of hours to several days to get started. If there still aren't any impressions after a week or so you might want to contact Google.

    Google manually reviews ADS for content network. You just need to be more patient.

    You might want to review the keywords you are using. Try to make them more broader. (This does not apply if your using placements).
