    Okay so I've setup a campaign and its content targeted only but i have yet to get any impressions, does it take a few days for the ad to go live? Its only been 24 hours thus far. Now if my bid is to low would get an alert? Or is just no impressions = low bid?

    FYI my keywords get searched but there not the top ones from its genre.

    if its been over 24 hours then you are bidding to low. Google does not alert you in any way about under bidding on the content network. You will simply get no impressions.

    The cpc for the content network is usually comparable to that of the search network. So if you are spending $1 per click in position 7 on the search network then bidding something like .10 or even .25 on the content network is guaranteed to get no results.
