Adwords Blacklisting

ExcelAddin · 11-30-2011, 07:19 AM

Hello everybody,

qiuck question regarding Adwords,

I have been having a bit of trouble trying to get my adwords ads up and running.

The addwords site has some interesting layout and speed issues, even on next-gen broadband!

anyway, my question is why would similar ads take longer to get approved for differerent keywords? I had a couple of ads running on a stack of keywords (which got approved near instantly), then whittled the list down 30 mins later, keeping the same ad copy, and I am still waiting for approval 2 days later!

my site is non-spammy or adult, targetted neatly around my keywords, but im curious as to what could cause such a delay?

any ideas what might cause the delay? have I set off spam alarms perhaps?

I have had adgroups and campaigns halted because we were using the words 'baby & kiddie' for example. We pointed out that it was a babywear shop, but they kept on auto suspending the campaigns for investigation.
