Ads Approved in under 5 mins [ Problem ! ]

Discussion in 'Google AdWords' started by kashifmahmood, Feb 25, 2010.

    I created a fresh ad group added up to 9 different ads (text) in the same group and then added all my keywords. In the mean time I noticed that all of my ads were approved immediately. I am currently targeting the content network and many of my keywords (almost 40%) have a bid set over their min bid.

    Still after 12 hours I do not see any impressions being reported in by adwords account.

    What am I doing wrong ?

    Needless to mention that I am still new to Adwords !

    You need to give Google time to approve your ads. This can take a few business days (they don't work weekends).

    I suggest not to have 9 active ads in a group at one time. Pause all but two of them and test those two. After 30 clicks each, keep the best, pause the other and unpause one of the others and repeat.

    The ads are already approved but no impressions and no clicks so I assume, either my bid is too low or my landing page has been given a very low score due to which me ads have not appeared on content network even after 48 hours.

    1- make sure all keywords are broad
    2- make sure all your keywords created by themes like (online games, play games, action games, etc..)
    3- remove any DKI from your ads
    4- use only 4 active ads
    5- increase your bids may be your niche is expensive
    hope all above recommendations help you.
    Thanks

    Are your keywords showing as "Eligible"? If not, they are not going to be shown basically. Are your keywords Quality Scores ok as well??

    What is DKI ?

    All of my keywords are showing as eligible and when I see the quality score it says

    * Keyword relevance: No problems
    * Landing page quality: No problems
    * Landing page load time: No problems

    The is the case with all of my keywords but still zero impressions. What to do ?
