I've got $100 in adwords along with 150+ keywords, some of them are high competition, some of them aren't. I put my max bid at 35 cents, yet I'm not getting ANY clicks, my balance remains the same. The campaign is active and running. Makes no sense. a lot of my keywords aren't high competition and have high monthly searches. It's been running for like 2 days and nothing, no page impressions, no clicks, all 0. It shows my keywords aren't running when i hover over the eligible part.

I dont understand?! I've ran a similar campaign and had the max bid at 5 cents and my balance would be gone in a day, yet I'm running 35 cent clicks and nothings happening. there's noway I'm not bidding high enough for clicks.

just want to see if theres anything im missing or could do to fix it before i contact their support

    The symptoms you describe sound a lot like that account has been suspended. I hope that's not the case, but that's what it could be. You would still be able to logon and see your account. Besides an email, there would be no indication it was suspended but what you describe. Check your spam folder's etc. for an email.

    its not suspended i guess there just doing a review on it to verify everything. got a really fast response from their support, i was expecting it to take a few days.

    it should at least show somewhere that your account is under review though instead of showing my campaign is active and running.

    I know this sounds silly but have you checked to make sure your ads aren't under review? Perhaps this niche is more competitive than your last niche that worked for .5 cents per click.

    I always end up getting cheaper clicks in the long run by starting with a higher max cpc and then waiting a bit to reduce the max cpc. It almost always boosts my quality score.
