Help: Not Getting Impressions On High Volume Keywords

[cpcking]

Hi

I have several ad groups with keywords that should be getting Tons of traffic - hundreds of clicks per day according to estimates in several search engines.

My position is First Page, very high bids, maximum budget, and the ads are targeted to the keywords (I have recently trimmed down my list according to an advise I read), No Negatives, No quality score issues.

These keywords are duplicated in another campaign but with a different geo targeting (one for all the US and one for selected cities), and much lower bids.

My keywrods usually share at least 2 terms so they are pretty relevant to each other.

Still, I am getting Very Small Number of Impressions, 10-30 per day!

What could be the reason for this?
Does google give me low exposure because my campaign is new?

BTW - adwords support could not tell me what is wrong.

Check the simple stuff first. Is your daily budget high enough - considering you are using "very high bids". Or, try lowering the bids so that your daily budget can handle significant click volume. Also, in Campaign Settings, check you're using "Accelerated Delivery"

Hi abbottsys,

my budget is maximum according to the budget estimator.
I am using standard delivery.

P.s -
I have 35 ad groups in this campaign - could that be the cause?
Also some of the adgroups were really big ~ 1000 keywords each , and I trimmed them down to see if that was causing the problem, but no change since than.

OK, try to isolate the problem. Pause all campaigns except one, and then see if you can get that one to work.
