Why is my ad not showing?

If you search a campaign keyword on Google and you don’t see your ad, don’t panic. This doesn’t necessarily mean that your campaign is not active, but it is probably due to any of these causes:

1. Daily Budget Limitation: This is the most popular reason why you may not be seeing your ad. For example if your daily budget is $30 and the cost per click is $3, then once you get 10 clicks your ads will stop showing for the day. Sometimes this happens in the morning, afternoon or night, depending on the demand. The higher your daily budget, the more your ad will show.

2. Ad blocks: Sometimes when you search for something on Google, you may not see any ads, this could be because you may have a Pop-up Blocker enabled on your browser. Check your browser extensions or addons to disable this option in order to see the ads.

3. Paused Campaign: Your campaign could be paused in order to perform technical tests or upgrades. It may also be paused by due to client’s request. If the campaign is paused we will let you know in advance. For example, if the campaign is paused for 5 days, the monthly budget will simple be adjusted to be used during the remaining 25 days (you will still get the same # of clicks as if it had ran for 4 weeks).
