How can I find my ad on google adwords

    I heard there was a tool that can tell you where your ad is located. As I can't find my ad anywhere on google even though I am getting clicks with one campaign.

    Also, my other campaign isn't getting any clicks and it has been running for a few days now. I have high bids and really high converting keywords. My ad wasn't declined but it is saying 0 activity at all. Anyone can help me with these problems I will pay them for their service. I am not asking for optimization...just basic troubleshooting.

    thanks.

    Is your ad local only or a national or state ad?

    Also, your ad maybe on rotation...depending on the amount of money you are willing to spend daily.

    Just some ideas....

    Run a Search Query Report within AdWords & you'll see where the clicks are coming from.

    Hi!

    For your 2nd problem, it might be because your ad texts haven't been reviewed yet. What does the diagnostic tool tell you? or if you pass your mouse above the icon next to each keyword, what do the pop windows say?

    There are a few ways to see your own ad.. you can use a proxy for that country and then search for it and scroll down to the last page and if you don't see it, then there's something wrong. Otherwise you can use the tool magda mentions...

    ok...sorry i have been gone for awhile...trying to figure it out...i am getting clicks..but for some reason when i use the tool to find it...it doesn't find it by using any keyword. My budget is high....I have no problem with price...my objective is to get it into sponsored listing...for some reason i haven't been able to do that...anyone can show me how to get it in sponsored search (if there is some special way) i am paying 50 dollars. I am desperate...and nothing is working for me...My budget is probably as high as you can get it..please someone teach me.

    thanks for all of your advice

    It's maybe related to your country setting. Which country you targeting ads? If you not setup your country as your targeting ads, you can't see it.

    Use this AdWords Extension for FireFox to view your ad if you are targeting countries you are not in.

    You cant just conclude that paying highest bid will be shown in sponsored listing. Your landing page quality score must be good and also please check whether your listing is shown in second page of the search page.

    I can't figure why you would actually need to see your ad on another site (rather than just knowing on which site the ads are showing), if you install Google Analytics you can then connect it to your Adwords account and it will tell you from which sites your clicks are coming, its pretty useful and hardly takes any effort to set up.
