Review sites no longer allowed on adwords!?!?!

Ilya Feynberg · 04-23-2009, 02:15 AM

Other than the recent slaps I've been getting....

Has anyone else had any problems with any type of review or comparisons sites that their advertising through adwords?

In googles landing page relevancy help section they state that you should proceed with caution on advertising any type of "comparison shopping sites".

Has anybody else had a problem with this? Or are review sites still ok with adwords and it's something else that I'm having a problem with??

Thanks to all in advance!

To my experience, review sites are still fine, however your quality score might suffer after a manual review from Google.

This will depend on the niche you are in, since google seems to be watching some very closely. There is nothing fundamentally wrong with a review site.

I haven't had any issues yet...

I have 9 campaigns that have been running for about 3 months, each with a review style landing page...

I did find that having the landing page with a list of the products and then a separate page for each product...increased my QS a bit.

But, I haven't had any problems.

Sorry to dig this post up, but the question still applies? Has anyone had problems getting Adwords to accept amazon review sites?

This doesn't surprise me at all. I've been reading that Google has been cracking down on this sort of practice. However, I would like to hear it from the horses' mouth - which would be Matt Cutts. Anyone have a link to Google or MC saying that they are going after review or comparison sites? I've only read it second handed...

I have very few problems getting my review sites approved.
