It's been a year or two since I setup an Adwords campaign and things have changed a bit. What I am pulling my hair out over is how do I get my ad displayed on the Search Network? Every time I go through the steps to setup an ad campaign Adwords keeps steering me to this "Target your ad: Identify placements" section where it looks like I can only select URLs, topics, and categories. I don't want this I just want to to the old fashioned add your keywords, place a bid and go. What am I missing here? Any help is much appreciated. J
They have redesigned a bit now they're promoting the new way to add placements all the shop. I think if you go to the Campaign Management/Campaign Summary - click the arrow next to "new online campaign" and choose "start with keywords" you should get to where you want to be.
You can choose the following options: 1. Log into your account 2.Click on Campaigns Tab 3. Click on + New Campaign 4. Select : Load Settings=>Campaign Type => Search Network Only or 4. Scroll down to Networks and Devices => Networks => Let me choose... 5. Untick Display Network Let me know how that goes.
