I got an offer that is for US only and i naturally narrowed my search in YSM to US only.
However now my ads are declined, reason why:
"Ad to URL Relevance, Ad is not relevant to the landing page."

The reason why im mentioning this is because this offer is redirecting people outside
of US to international offer (neverblue style). Now when i look into my tracking i see a bunch of clicks sent
to that international offer a few minutes before i got declined. And yes, my ad is very very
relevant to that US offer.

Is Yahoo really this stupid? What's your experience?
 


Are you sending the traffic through your own domain first? I have had this happen and had to set up a dummy page or similar offer that doesnt redirect and then switch after the ad gets approved.

I fight with YSMs editorial department on a daily basis, a complete bunch of retards who most of the time can't even explain the reason why my campaigns/ad groups/keywords/ads were removed/declined/shit on/pissed on...

Yes im sending the traffic through me, so i can properly track things. However
im not doing the redirection to the international offer, neverblue is. Ive had several ads befo
and this didnt happend, so im guessing it's the weekend interns from china that mess things up.

There is one other funny thing about YSM that i found out too. Whenever i have my ads pending for editorial review, i just copy and repost them and they get autoaccepted. Then the original ad gets accepted a day later by the editors. I guess it pisses them off, but hey it's their shitty system!
 
haha, had this as my ad name "if goes to editorial, click my ad from US and you get the right page". Went to editorial review and got accepted a few minutes later. This was the same ad that originally got declined.
