    Ads are no longer showing up. I have liked AuctionAds and have promoted it to other webmasters. However, I am really on the verge of moving away from it right now.

    No ads here either. I agree with you. I'm seriously considering removing it until the issues are addressed. It's clearly not yet ready for prime time with this many outages.

    I have just checked my targeted as I have had corrected ads amongst wrong ads. My site is loading, but once it comes to the autionads, by site hangs.

    I now realise that I should have put the code in a new file and then used an iframe. I am going to have to sort that out rather quickly if AuctionAds is a type of network that is down often. It is to risky to have a site hanging every now and again when it comes to trying to keep your traffic.

    Hope it goes back up soon.

    Two days in row with major outages. They at least owe their affliliates an explanation. Some of my sites have the ads replaced with a jumbo Connection Failed banner.

    Shoe or someone in development has got to get a foothold onto this. Lots of pages with "failed to connect" banner are extremely ugly.

    I don't really mind so much about the ads not being related to the keywords. But the whole site being down is a bit annoying.

    The ads not working is one thing but it causing such a massive slow down to my site is problematic, also the auctionads website seems to be experiencing problems, it looks like they are having some kind of server error. I hope they weren't attacked.

    I find it weird that noone has responded yet. Will there be another "bonus" for this month's outages?

    AuctionAds is fluctuating again - non-targetted ads & random "Page Not Found" errors. Anyone else experiencing this?

    Yep, I'm currently showing no ads on pages that are using Multiple Keyword Targeting.

    yeah, still untargeted. I'm pulling the plug on these things until someone lets us know when we can start relying on the service. Don't get me wrong, I think what Shoe is doing is great, but I need reliability.

    I'm going to ride it out, you get what you give and if you stick it out through the hard times you will bask in all its glory when things finally are sorted out. I would advise against pulling the plug but that is your decision.

    True enough. Guess I'm just frustrated. =) Due to the nature of the site I'm building at the moment the index page had 3 banks of 4 auction ads each, when they get wacky it REALLY messes up the look-and-feel of the main page.

    This is the third day for me that Auctionads has gone haywire with ads not showing up and/or showing non-targetted ads.. This is crazy..

    If I go and "GET CODE" again in the control center, the search box returns "0 results" no matter what you type during these times.
