    Here is what my ad said

    Full Tilt Referral Code
    Use Referral Code: OP600
    100% Deposit Bonus, 600$ Free
    www.referfulltilt.com

    What do I need to change to get this approved? I have changed it a few times now and it keeps getting disapproved. Obviously something im doing is breaking there rules. If someone could point out what im doing it would be greatly appriciated since google can disapprove my ads multiple times but not just tell me what I did wrong.

    Also I have like 100+ keywords that I added from the list they suggested for me. I just added them all. Not sure if that could be the issue or not, just thought I would add that incase.

    When I first read this ad, I didn't know what you were selling, but that's besides the point I guess.

    As I clicked on the URL, I think maybe the problem is that this is a gambling site.

    Reading the ad, sounds like I'll get $600 for free. The landing page mentions something about $600 and I guess that I'd get *up to* that amount if I deposit that same amount for playing poker on that site. I don't think Google considers this free as you have to spend something to get something in return, in this case, the site will double the amount.

    What are the details of the disapproval reason? But I think it has something to do with the wording of your ad about the "free" money.

    Thanks for the info. Yeah I guess I should better describe the website in the ad. There are plenty of other who advertise online gambling referral codes. Saying 600$ free and not describing how is probably why its being disapproved. They said unacceptable content but that doesnt explain to me exactlly what I did wrong.

    I think unacceptable content is because it's a gambling site. Stop trying to advertise it or you risk having your account terminated and it would be almost impossible to get another Adwords account.

    It's because it's a gambling site. Search google for "poker" and notice how many adwords ads you see (hint: there are none)

    Yea, don't bother trying to advertise on Google for just about anything anymore, they are one of the biggest pain in the butts I've ever had the chance to experience.

    P.S. and most networks won't advertise poker/gambling websites so you cut yourself a hard niche bud, try something less competitive and you'll make more money

    It may be because its difficult to figure out what the ad is talking about. Should be simple and self explanatory. Should not have restricted contents.
