Serious Adwords Problem?

I am having a few issues as well. Mostly to do with Impression Share. I am direct linking to a big time merchant with a very targeted keyword that supposedly has good volume. When I ran the IS report I had less 10% of impressions despite huge budget/great QS/ and targeted ad group.

Maybe this is a good time to clean up the campaigns, I am sure other people are having issues, so first ones to figure out what works with the new setups will profit nicely.
 
I had default keyword per click set at .05 cents. I wake up and they are all up to .20 cents. Either the competition is smelling my dirty arab ass creeping at them or the google is fucking with it. Either way this sucks, being my first real adwords adventure its ppretty scary. especialy if you are new and still testing the waters..Its looks like its going to be very tough to make anything stick these days.

Hi,

Recently my ads have been screwing up...
Dropping alot of traffic.. generating alot less clicks and absolutely no leads.

This has only been happening the past few days.

I started a new account and the same thing is happening.

I've asked a few people and theyre also having problems with there ads.

Is anybody else having badluck with adwords recently?

Please be yes :\

I'm having the same problem on one of my campaigns. I was chatting online with adwords support and they just gave me a bunch of BS. They said it's my of my QS and that its poor. But some of them are 4/10 poor and i am WAY above the min to be on the front page. But they said QS isn't the only factor. So i said "then what the hell is the point of it"

Then i showed them examples of the same thing with KW's that had "OK" QS. Once again they said "QS isn't the only factor" Then i started getting pissed and giving them real specific examples, and Showed them my site and the KW i was bidding on.

Now this site isn't a small AFF site. It used to be, but 2 weeks ago i changed it over to a full site, with the lead capture right on my site (i have it submit direct to advertisers DB. I work direct with him and get a great payout).

So i said "here is my site: estimatemypool.com and, for example, i'm bidding on exact match "swimming pool estimate" so please explain to me how my site isn't good quality for that keyword"

At that point the person realized i had a case and said that it was odd my QS was so low. She said she was going to look and see what was going on.

This was late in the afternoon on friday, so hopefully i hear back from them today.

My guess is that it used to be a 2 page site and they prob had it as that in their system. But the funny thing is, i didn't start getting screwed until a few days after i launched the new site.

We'll see what happens, but i may just change the name of the site and start on a new domain...
 
I'm trying to create a new campaign and I am having lots of trouble. In firefox 3 everytime I click something the login screen pops up then sometimes loads the page I want. So I fired up chrome and not when I select a site to place my ad on the page goes blank. WTF adwords doesn't work in their own browser??? Fuck are they turning into Microshit????
 
ha! well try this one then... my CTR is improving (40% - 50% ctr's)... my QS is improving (10/10 for ads an LP's)...my ad history is improving on my campaigns ...and my FUCKIN CPC's are increasing?

I've tried launching 3 new campaigns and not one of them has seen more than 500 page impressions before stopping...I wonder if they spotted my account and labeled me *AFFILIATE*
