I'm creating an ad on AdWords and my keyword is longer than 35 characters. what are my options? I can't get my keyword to target me ad...

Ok, the problem I was having with my ad was due to a billing issue...from 2007! It wasn't showing online because it was in Google's old billing system. I had to call and get the charge removed, I should start seeing impressions by the weekend.

Be specific to be terrific

as much as i appreciate the feedback, that's very vague lol thanks anyway

Dig deeper for shorter keywords.

i thought long tail was the way to go...?

There's long tail and then there's loooooooooooooooooooooong tail... ...put your long tail into the keyword tool and search again for a shorter, sweeter one......you should be able to get something ideal!

Hi Frank. Did you push through you ppc campaign? I have a site with 2-3 pages and I'm planning to use ppc. The numbers you see in any keyword tool are just estimates but I find the keyword tool here reliable.

I just launched my page a little over a week ago, although i've owned the domain for about 2 years now.

i may have jumped the gun, but I put together an adwords campaign

Dear Frankkej,
It seems that Upsgirl had already provided you some solutions. If that is not working, then may be it is because your ads are not appearing in first page of Google. If your ads are appearing in 2nd page of Google or even in the bottom of search page, then it is hard to get the clicks or any impressions as well specially when your ads are shown in 2nd page. Or, may be your ads is showing to some targeted countries only Or, may be your bids amount is not enough to even display your ads. Google will not bother to display your ads if your bid amount is too much low than your competitors.
So, what is the solution?
The solution to these all is just to increase your bid price. First try to increase bid amount and wait for 2-3 days. If this doesn't help you, then you can again place your queries here or even in the forum of Google Adwords.
AND ONE MORE THING....
You say that you are having a hard time finding people to answer your questions around here. You must know that only your followers or whom you are following will receive your questions. So, in order to get help from many people, try to follow as many people as you can, specially those whom you think are expert. Anyway, I just follow you.

Thanks so much for your reply. Here's what I did so far:

1. set budget to $35/day
2. i have 15 keywords and 12 ads
3. bid price is $6 for keywords that are $2.75-3 on average
4. all ads and keywords are active
5. all ads and keywords are all eligible and accepted
6. I created a negative keyword list of competitors and results I didn't want to show for
7. set territory to US only
8. quality score for all words is either a 7/10 to 8/10

When I hover over my keywords it says "keyword phrase doesn't trigger any of your ads.."

My website has been up for 11 days in total, I wonder if my results are caused by the fact that my site is too new...?

Dear Frankkej,
If you are only targeting US, then keywords bids will definitely high and if you are setting up campaigns for review of online work companies such as "Wealthy Affiliate Review", then you should start to bid more than $9 per keyword to appear in good position if you are only targeting US. Don't worry, it will not cut that much money as per your bid amount. However, if you find it is cutting same amount of money and if you feel you can't afford it, just pause or delete those keywords.
Google also verify that your keywords are relevant with your post or not. If those keywords which you are placing for bid is not available within your post, then it may not trigger your those ads.

I'm not targeting wealthy affiliate. My site is about flood insurance. Www.onlinefloodquote.com

Dear Frankkej,
Your site is totally out of my field. So, I don't know for your sites what kind of competition are there and what are the popular keywords etc. So, I suggest you to place your queries about Adwords with forum of Adwords. They will be able to give you authentic help.
You can place place your queries within Adwords forum by clicking this link:-
https://www.en.adwords-community. com/
OR
You can contact support team of Adwords by clicking this link:-
https://support.google. com/adwords/answer/8206?hl=en&hlrm=en
However, if you want help from my side, then you should give me total information like which keywords you are advertising, for which page, how much bid you put for that keywords, how many keywords are there within your each campaigns etc.
AND ONE MORE THING
You can get full guide about Google Adwords within Course 7 of Affiliate Bootcamp within WA. This is link for that lesson:-

Thanks, pal!

Upsgirl....lol.!

This is the first question I've seen from you so I apologize if nobody has answered your concerns. Let me remind you Live Chat is sometimes faster.
Okay, your Trust score is WA related and will not have anything to do with this.
There isn't a specified timeframe for starting a PPC Campaign.
When did you upload your ads?
Have they been approved? If not, what does the status column say?

yes they've been approved for about 5 days now

Were they uploaded? Status Column state?

approved. i don't know what you mean by "uploaded"

From AdWords Editor, export a copy of your campaign as an AdWords Editor Archive.
From Translator Toolkit, click Upload at the top of the sidebar in your translations list page.
Click the Upload a file tab.
Select the AdWords Editor Archive file you'd like to upload by following the prompts.
Select the languages you're translating from and into.
Click Share and select the translation memory that you want to use with your translation.
Click Upload for translation.

I realize we may be in different time zones and I want to get this resolved. Live Chat is a great option. I am going to PM a more experienced associate. I am certain he will be in touch with you. Good luck!

so I found out what happened... I had a $3.67 balance on my Google account from 2007! It was in their old billing system so it wasn't showing online. I called and straightened it out, should start to see impressions sometime over the weekend... what in the world...!

YOU'RE KILLING ME! It's all good! HAHA...are you laughing too?!

Turns out the billing wasn't the issue. it was another problem that they can't put their finger on. i had to close my adwords account and start over again..... just FYI, maybe it will save someone else time down the road if they come across this

OMIGOD! LOL! Are you still breathing?!
Thanks for sharing!

Frankie, I see you've asked 2 questions since you started July 10. Do you need help with the other question? I see you did receive responses. Please let me know. Thank you.

I'm having a hard time finding people to answer questions around here

what course are you on in the training? I know course 3 covers this info.
If you can't get answers go directly to the source: Labman or upsgirl, they will surely have great insight
