What is considered a "high" budget? Impressions?

    I read that the higher the budget the more impressions, etc, etc. Ive also read that your ad goes active right away.

    Its been only 3 hrs but I have had 0 impressions. Am I doing something wrong here?

    My understanding is the higher impression or click will depend on your keywords instead your budget. If someone hit your keywords - eg. piano learning, your adv will be on the top if you have higher budget:rolleyes:

    First off - adwords reporting isn't in real time, and three hours is the average time-delay.
    Secondly, they seem to be getting slower in reviewing new accounts.

    As to the budget issue - if your budget isn't big enough for a high-volume search keyword to be shown for every search query, google will show it sporadically throughout the day.
    If you go back to your campaign settings, look at Budget Options, and you will see a recommended budget option. If that's hugely different to what you've set, you might want to have a think about how realistic you're being about how adwords will perform for you as your campaign is currently set-up, but also remember it's in google's interest to get you to spend more.

    Thanks for the replies.

    It has said this for about 14 hrs now. . Your account is now active and should show ad impressions soon

    Still all 0s for impressions/clicks. My budget is set at $100.
