A few hours ago I paused two ad groups in one of my campaigns, but they seem to be still rolling along. search network stopped, but content network didn't, even though I stopped them all. Anyone seen something like that before? arrrrgghhhhh
How do you know that the adverts haven't stopped? Have you seen them on websites? If you're seeing the clicks on Adwords increase, bear in mind that these numbers are not real-time, and they are probably just showing traffic from before you paused the campaign...
Finally it stopped. I know they were running because they show on the stats and is I see the clicks throughs. Bare in mind, I know they were running after a paused them regardless of statistics delay by the fact that I paused it before midnight and stats show for the 29th. I've never seen anywhere that pausing ad groups takes effect only a while after and not immediately. Or maybe its a fluke.
