    Hello All

    I hope someone could advise me pertaining to adwords impressions.

    I have a keyword phrase who got 28,696 impressions with average position between 3-4 in just one day but surprisingly didn't get any click.

    Do anyone face the same situation and may I know what is the likely cause of this poor clickthrough rate.

    To your success
    Lo Benedict

    Edit: Its 5:45 and I read "adsense" and "adwords" together. My mistake. Maybe your ads are of poor quality?

    Hey Drig

    Please kindly check with the moderator whether a signature file is allow in this forum as I noticed you too have one.

    This is a general question and I felt that there is no need to disclose my Google ads.Hope you understand.

    To your success

    one day, i try to click an ads on one site for charity or whatsoever,
    but the ads is dead and doesn't send me to the landing page.
    I think it happens sometimes

    Make sure the words in your ads are appealing enough to induce people to click on your ads.

    That's definitely a good reason - the writing on some ads simply aren't eye catching.

    you have to write appealing ads to get clicks but make sure it's appealing a targeted visitor

    i mean if you have website about health or something then don't write in the ads "win $$$$ in 1 day"

    Such ad will get much clicks but won't convert for you

    good luck with your ad :)

    Were your impressions distributed between the search network and content network? Sometimes you can get a lot of impressions in the content network (if you have that option enabled) with very few clicks.
