Okay I just created my first adwords account and my first campaign about 15 hours ago. My campaign is approved, my keywords are all eligible, the ad is running, and the ads are showing up in search results but I'm getting no clicks or impressions. I've turned off the content network and I'm only using search. My ad is well written as well. Each click is costing me $0.50 and my daily budget is $20. Also all my keywords have quality scores of 5-6. Adwords says my landing page is no problem as well. I also wanted to add that all my keywords are written like this: "computer" I have nine keywords total. Is this normal? Please let me know what is wrong because this is very odd.
Most probably the keywords you have chosen have a very low search volume. Also you are using "phrase match" this will further reduce possible impressions. You may want to look at your keyword research - make sure you are in a profitable niche. Try "accelerated delivery" as well - that could help you get more impressions, faster.
Ok so I have 500 impressions and five clicks. I guess google's system didn't update it in real time. But from those clicks I got no sales. I have my ad running in 70 countries but I only have 34 keywords. The keywords each have atleast traffic of 1k each month. Any suggestions on how to get more clicks or something? I've had my ad on there for one and a half day. Also do I keep all my keywords into one ad group or should I create multiple ad groups?
1k each month is not a lot. I can't tell you how to get more clicks without more details. It looks like you have expectations of your campaign that are not very realistic. It takes more time and clicks to evaluate the effectiveness of a campaign. to answer you last question - yes, create multiple ad groups with ads written for highly related keywords.
1% CTR is a good one . your ad is shown on first page or not? if not on first page,the effect of ads always will not work well
Ok I added more relevant keywords and made my ad better now in four days I've received 5k impressions and 45 clicks. I still need to add more keywords so I get more activity because my ad is running in 70 different countries. Anybody know how to put google conversion code into cs-cart?
