    Hi guys,

    okay I've used Adwords once or twice before but this time it is holding my new campaign and ad for review for more than a week.

    How long does it take for Google to approve ads that are under review?

    I've sent an email to support and I didn't hear back from them as well. All I've heard is a survey about how helpful was their support team. Well you could probably guess what I must have said.

    I am not happy that I have to wait for over a week... opportunities don't last for that long.

    Is there any other good ad network I should consider?

    More than a week is unusual from my experience. I submitted an image based advertisement and it got approved in a couple of days. Also submitted a text based advertisement last night and was approved when I woke up. Maybe try and get in contact with them?

    I am still waiting and really frustrated with Google Adwords. I am missing the window of opportunity to gain access to customers. This to me is really strange from Google.

    Did anyone have the same experience? Is it because I haven't used adwords for long?

    Try submitting the ad again. I put like 4 ads up the other day and all but one got accepted within an hour. The next day it still wasn't accepted, which I thought odd, so I recreated it and it got accepted immediately.
