    the URL, for one thing, isn't gramatically correct. i realize this isn't always possible with the limited choices in domain names... But when a user looks at your ad and sees the display URL of www.LooseWeights.net, it means nothing to them. Lose Weight is what you're after.

    You should also bid higher for keywords.
    It seems like you are not getting enough impressions.

    Another thing I would also try is checking how many ads are you using? You might want to add at least 5 ads for each ad group

    Can you post the bids you have set up for your keywords? They might be way to low then the competitors' similar keywords.

    If keywords for serch do not work, try to increase the number of content ads in a group. Make them with different descriptive text to increase the probability to match one or another keyword/content.

    The Number One Factor is the URL itself, first impressions would make your site look like some kind of down to the basics good old fashioned 'Health and Strength Club' the term "Loose Weights" to me means exactly that, weights that can be put onto a barbell or adjustable dumbells!

    If it isn't possible to change the URL then try and use a URL cloaking Program and go to the Keyword Tool in your Google Ads and use the "Site Relevant" Tool, that will find the best and most 'apt' keywords for your own site.

    I hope the advice helps in some way?

    Personally I don't agree that the main problem is the URL. Having impressions and few clicks, then *that* would indicate people unwilling to click on an ad with a 'non-relevant' domain. Having NO or low impressions means that either the search volume isn't there, or the kewords don't have high enough bids.

    You can find that out which is the case by clicking on the magnifying glass next to each keyword, or using the Ads Diagnostic Tool at https://adwords.google.com/select/DiagnosticTool

    It'll tell you what's going on.

    It may be that your ad shows up in position 93 because there's 92 other advertisers that have bid higher or have a better CTR!

    Hope this helps

    p.s once you get some impressions, *then* start testing URLs and landing pages.
