    Hey i have an ad up with adwords which is currently "Active"

    I have about 10 keywords, all specifically related to my topic.
    My budget is set to £2 a day, and a maximum of £1 per click.

    The ad has been running for about 2 weeks, and it has not been displayed once, nor clicked!

    Any1 know the reasons?

    They have a tool called "Ads Diagnostic Tool".

    I see 2 possibilities,

    1. It's an uncommon keyword and is not searched often
    2. It's a very competitive keyword and you're being outbid on it heavily.

    I had the same problem with a set of keywords. But then I noticed that they are very rare keywords, so I changed them.

    Another option is to email Adwords, I've had similar experiences before, and they gave me the excuse that they were in the process of reviewing it.

    This happened to me as well today. No idea whats going on. :(

    got like 500 semi popular words and frases and not a single view. It's something wrong alright.
