Google Adwords / Affiliate Link

Discussion in 'Google AdWords' started by Sundance, Feb 27, 2011.

    How come when I try to use Adwords for an affiliate I-phone site it immediately goes under review? I am a novice, but I am using my affiliate link from Plimus and using it as the Destination url. I am using the actual link of the site as the displaying url. Don't want to get my adwords account blown up so I immediately paused then deleted it. Am I missing something here?? Help and advice is appreciated

    It may be due to copyright/ trademark issue

    Most likely when dealing with trademarked terms like iPhone, you'll come under review so that Google can determine whether you have the rights/permission to use the term in your ad copy. If you have permission to use the term, then Google will approve your ads (or you need to contact support to explain that you do have the rights - they're very helpful people). If you don't, they'll simply be disapproved.

    Brands or trademarks are not allowed to promote through ad words , if u don't have permission .destination url should match landing page url , so its better to promote niches through a website :)

    Just because a term is trademarked, doesn't mean the ad cannot contain it. The trademark owner has to ask Google to not show ads containing their trademark. Since iPhone is an Apple product, I assume they have done so. But you can still show ads by asking Apple's permission. There are other ways to get around it as well. Of the 6 ads I see from buckdat's link above, 4 use iPhone in the ad, one does so in a sneaky way, another seems legit and I'm not sure about the other two. All but one has iphone as part of their domain name too but that is allowed by Google.

    True, but Lucid you must be knowing that Apple would never allow to run ads for Jailbreak articles especially if they ask for permission.

    The best way is to use DKI and have granular, compact adgroups.

    I only actually see a pair of clearly related ads (i.e incredibly similar ad copy which just screams "multiple accounts") for that keyword, and a bunch of others for a related term. Of those, only one or two use the term iPhone, and they're sneakily included.

    I had the same issue using other apple trademarks, so it's most likely that.

    That's a trademark issue. Always make sure any product/offer you promote isn't trademarked by its name or whatever else. For example WOW or World of Warcraft or Amazon or MSN etc. Always double check what you put in your ads.
