I'm doing some SEM experiments and I quickly reached my daily budget of $10. After tweaking my landing page a little better I wanted to get some more traffic and raised my budget to $20.00. Do I have to wait another day for Adwords to start displaying my impressions again? Or is there a way to tell Adwords to continue displaying right away? Thanks.
It will start displaying again in a bit. Make sure you do have credit in your account (if you are using a pre-paid method)
i'm not sure if you're experiencing the same thing, but at one point, I updated my adwords budget and it took 48 hours for new ads to appear, but it could've been an isolated incident
Make sure that you have no other seperate campaigns running that may feed off this budget. I had a problem like this and it was fixed after I paused all my other campaigns.. Any resolution?
As long as you have available budget Google will do its best to spend your money, you can count on it! =). Just make sure you have not met your campaign budget spend limit and your campaign will continue to run and your ads will be visible. $10 and $20 is not really much to work with, if you really want to see results I would recommend a starting daily budget of about $50. This will allow you to gather a lot of statistical data quickly and make the right changes to your campaign. You can keep really good control of your ad spend by making sure that specific converting key terms are present in the search query. I have found recently that the + symbol for broad match works excellent. The + symbol on broad match requires that any word with a + symbol infront of it MUST be present in the search query.
It's good that your experimenting on PPC but you need first to experiment on your keyword matching and be extra careful with your negative keywords. Having a huge impression doesn't necessarily mean your campaign is successful. There's a computation for that, just watch out for your CTR, maintain at least 2% higher.
for getting good response check negative keywords which should be less. try to get less impression on negative keywords
