    I just setup my campaign to only appear on websites in the content network. How long will it take before Google approves me? Hopefully they do.

    Sometimes one hour. Sometimes a day or two. I find that it helps to kick your bids up to like $0.20 or $0.25 a click and then, once you get some impressions, scale it back.

    You have to monitor, though, or you could blow through your daily budget quickly, depending on where you have it set. Not too likely on CN but you never know.

    should be 24 hours or less. If you not seeing impressions or clicks, you may be bidding way to low

    So basically I should bid high and once I get approved, bid low?

    yes and no...

    bid high enough to start getting exposure but no to high that you start buying expensive ad spots.
