Who knows I'm just glad its back up and running, I took a major loss yesterday, around 500-1000+ clicks lost because I am now running the ads on multiple sites , owe well you simple have to factor in the downtime.
Targeting has stopped working again today. Not sure how long its been broken this time. The thumbnails are still working ok, its just that all the auction ads are completely offtopic for my keywords/sites.
I have noticed this as well, ie the targetting going off-synch. I have not detected any downtime, although I did see three "Website Not Found" errors during some refreshes.
found this cool site for auction ads dk if ppl know about it yet might help ppl having problems with AA www.auctionadsforums.com
Targeting is still broken for me. That auctionadsforums site says "This Account Has Exceeded Its CPU Quota" when I tried to click one of the forums shown on the front page...
Hmmm odd - one of my sites is showing targeted auctionads now, while the other refuses to even after several refreshes, and now the thumb pics aren't showing either on that site lol EDIT Ah ok, it seems to be just that page now... most others are working once again
Yup this makes me want to cry, I'm losing hundreds of clicks because of this, and probably confusing my users.
As mentioned previously, a status page of sorts would be very helpful here. There will be some loss of potential income due to the non-targetted ads. I noticed the non-targetting just a while ago when the only ads for a Power Tool related site was Coach Handbags even after many refreshes.
Its a real shame that they can't "cache" the keywords for a domain, so if their live keyword grabbing thing breaks (which it has every day for the last few that I've been trying AA), then it could just default back to the keywords they've got cached... instead of every single time it happens starting to show all sorts of other unrelated stuff. I'll give them a few more days to fix their system before I drop them I think.
