I'm having a challenge with AdWords editor not rotating ads evenly

sashagilberg · 12-21-2008, 06:31 PM

...So I decided to split test domain names in my ad copy to see which gets a better CTR.

To do this, I opened adwords editor, copy/pasted an existing ad and changed the domain name and destination URL.

Not a big deal or anything, right?

Yet for the past 5 days the ad's aren't being split tested evenly, more like 80/20 ratio on average. In the campaign settings, I have it clearly set on 'rotate evenly'.

Does anybody know what I can do to fix this problem as it's really annoying not being able to split test properly.

thanks so much in advance!

to change this to 50/50 go to campaign settings

the default is to show the winner more often

I already had it set to 50/50 (rotate evenly), then I checked to make sure it was still selected and it was.

This is why it seems so weird because it's on rotate 50/50
