Dear all thank you for your time to come in here to help me out, is Estimate traffic for new keywords accurate? if it is not how far off can it been coz it seem pretty far off for my advertisement.
The traffic estimates can be very helpful at times for new campaigns but depending on your targeting ( whether you target only your local city or the entire world) the accuracy can become questionable. For example the keyword "art exhibit" may get a lot of searches in New York, but if you are only targeting North Dakota, your traffic estimates may be way off. Your ad itself also might not be very good or your ad position might be low. I believe the estimates are normally based on national historic data. My advice would be to use the keyword tool to give you an idea of how many searches are done per month but then base your decisions on actual results.
Because been following the traffic tool but seem the predicted amount way off. Some of the keyword not even show due to low bid price. No idea wat to do ...
I would start by checking the quality scores of your keywords. If your quality scores are too low then you need to raise your bid. Working on getting your quality scores higher is the better option.
