Low CPC = No Adcenter Impressions?

    Hi I'm trying out MS adcenter and created a campaign with a $30 a month budget, spend until depleted.

    Keyword bids are at .16 but I've gotten zero impressions so far. The keywords are active and the campaign was created about 12 hours ago.

    Could my bids be too low or does it take some time for new ads to enter the system?

    Thanks

    I'd give it a bit more time, they could be reviewing the account.

    I'm sure by now, you've already got it up and running?
    Probably having fun with Budget Pause as well.

    I have run into the exact same thing. I raised mine one cent and had 5000 impressions... way higher than zero. But still... seems like it is slow as can be.

    Well it's been running for a few days now. Still pretty low impression although the conversion ratio looks higher than adsense. (User Demographic?)

    Notx: I'll try to increase the month spend for a few days to see if this ups the impressions.

    I ran a two-month campaign on $50 AdCenter credit, and I couldn't even use it all. Sometimes the campaign stops randomly, and they send annoying messages about the keywords not being relevant to the landing page. Biggest damn waste of time...only cost $5, but I want back the many hours I spent trying to squeeze hits out of MSN. I had like 450 broad keywords.
    I don't think they get a lot of traffic.
