Default Google Image Ad Disapproved

Had a $100 Google coupon so I thought I'll use it. Used a image ad from a CPA dating offer on Display Content Network. The keyword matched the landing page, and the keyword was displayed in the ad. No re-directs linking directly to landing page.

Google's Response: Disapproved "Irrelevant Image/Video Ad"

Does anyone have an idea of what this really means?

Hi squarepeg,

The Google AdWords program demands "extreme relevance". It can't be somewhat relevant it must be extremely relevant.

It's not about what you think matches, it about what Google sees as a match. Use the AdWords Keyword Tool to discover the most relevant keywords for your landing page to confirm you are targeting keywords that are acceptable to AdWords.

You got this number where? Interesting since that would represent about a third of their advertisers...

Don (dburk) is right. You must be relevant. Unfortunately, I see too many advertisers (most really) with a different definition of relevancy.
