Hi,

In the past months I noticed, in several accounts already, that the websites my display campaigns reach seems to have been limited. My ads won't show in decent websites like cnn.com/reuters.com for example.
I didn't get any email or notification indicating that i have been limited by "limited ad serving" policy.

What could be the reason for that? anyone suffered from anything like that?

Thanks.

Your ads might be limited due to narrow targeting, low bids, brand safety filters, or high competition for premium sites, even without a "limited ad serving" notice.

Most premium placements have a bid threshold. It's more of a competition between networks and advertisers and unless your CTR and bid are higher, you won't be shown there.

It could be that your targeting settings or account got flagged for some reason sometimes platforms limit where ads show without giving a heads-up. Don’t worry though, you’re not alone!

Maybe the platform's algorithms are limiting your reach or your bid isn’t high enough to compete for those top sites.

It might be because of tighter targeting, lower bid or stricter brand safety filters, which can limit where your ads show up, even if you haven’t received any notifications. It’s something others have noticed too

Lower bids may result in fewer high-quality ad spots.

Maybe it’s just tighter targeting or budget limits, dude, no warning, but it happens!
