In my account it shows that all my keywords are active, and i have bid $1 a piece. I dont understand why im not getting any hits...? Please help.
lol. I guess you are not getting any impression either, aren't you? Just same situation as mine. Someone said it's because the adgroup is now under review process. So, wait for another day then.
adwords has its problems as ive had weird issues with some of the accounts i play with. talking to an adwords specialist via chat, does not help much in my experience. what are some of your keywords, if you dont mind?
Especially adult related keywords will "get reviewed" very often. I've just changed a bit of my keyword list, then, the ad is now under review again...
I fired up a new account for someone on Thursday night, still no impressions on any of them. I think my account/ads/keywords hasn't been fully activated by google yet, anytime now would be nice.
Certainly there are something going on within Google, maybe high pressure from the top to squeeze more $$$ from small Adword guys. Disappointing earnings will make every advertisers to pay higher rates. Some of my ads have been running great with "GREAT" rating on the keywords, the mini bid requirement were 0.05 though I usualy pay $0.30. All of the sudden today, they changed all my keywords to $1 to $5 min bid with "POOR" rating.. what's the heck damn Google wants to do, need to do more GooG bashing at GOOG stock board... How do you guys make a living out of this crap? They forced me to close all campaigns.. ---------------------------------------------- Your ads aren't running. Can we help?

Don't freak out if you don't see results in 8 hours. Sometimes I don't see results for 24 hours, but usually it won't be more than 24 hours. I don't know what keywords you're using, but it's likely that your campaign is pending approval by a Google representative. If you start a campaign on the weekend, it could take more than 24 hours for someone to approve it. Just be patient at first, but if 48 hours go by and still nothing, then you might need to contact Google and ask them directly. It's also possible that your keywords are not triggering your ad, due to poor quality. Try different keywords that are related to the content of your site. Or maybe your minimum bid is too low. There are so many factors involved, I simply don't have enough info about your particular campaign to tell you what the exact problem is.
