    Hey guys,

    I just want to ask some help from you. I just created a campaign last week with yahoo but the problem is, I dont recieve any click or even impressions. I tried to optimize it and I also raised my bid to $1.

    What seems to be the problem with my campaign. Your feedback is highly appreciated.

    How many impressions are you getting? Are you in a competitive niche? If so, the dollar bid might not even be enough to show.

    No impressions at all. My bid was way above the yahoo recommendation for my niche. I will try to raise it since I have a deposit of $30 with yahoo.

    Thanks for your inputs :)

    Check whether your accounts are really online. I experienced one when it says all are active but I received no impression. When I checked my email, I actually received an email from yahoo that my account has been put temporarily offline until something is settled.

    maybe you are targetting keywords with not much traffic, or your ad isn't relevant to visitors.

    I have the same problem - no impressions from Yahoo Search Marketing at all!
    Does anyone know the possible reasons of this?

    Campaign status is active, all keywords are active, all advertisments are active. There is a lot of traffic at this keywords - i sure (checked with Google Adwords Keyword tool).

    Trying to contact Yahoo Search Marketing support.

    I did 2 things:
    • I've contacted Yahoo support and have asked them - why i have no impressions
    • I've created new campaign (the old campaign i haven't delete)

    After 1 day i've received mail from Yahoo support:

    Everything is fine now - i've got a lot of impressions in both campaigns (old and new)!

    Yahoo SEM is great in that you can send people straight to an affiliate page. Google doesn`t allow this.
