Struggling with traffic

rafark · Apr 28, 2018

So I set up my first campaign, added some keywords but after three days I barely have just 30 impressions. No clicks, as expected.

The keywords are long tail (100 to 1k monthly), but highly targeted to my niche. The best keyword has just 7 impressions. Competition is low.

When I hover to get the tooltip I get the message "your ads are not showing right now" or similar. Some keywords even have the message "Rarely shown due to low quality score", and I have a 1/10 QS which is complete BS since my ads and landing are tightly related to the keywords I am bidding for.

I've already edited my ad copy so that I include words from the keywords and raised the bid to about $1 (Adwords had suggested $0.3 to appear on the top of the page).

This is a low Budget campaign since I'm starting out, don't have too much money to burn. But I'm frustated because my ads aren't even showing and I have bills to pay and the clock is ticking.

What can I do?

30 impressions and no clicks means the ad might not be highly relevant to user search. Make many ad groups by taking 3-4 keywords per ad group and the ads for each group must be relevant to them.

Thanks for the suggestion. My ad is super relevant to the keywords. I've gotten several clicks now, still in the 30+- impressions a day though.

Thanks, I've already gotten into that. QS is so odd.

Low impressions are due to many reasons like the location of targeting, the keyword competition, the BID you kept & the keyword match type you are using. If you keyword is eligible in status, then try increasing the bid. I suggest to use the keyword match type to broad match modifier. Use only 2-3 word keyword.

if you want real free traffic & rank your video or website in first page of google then you should have a look this software-http: //www. jvzoo.com/c/955303/293036
You can check it,if you find this useful then allright,if no then do SEO manually.

same happened with me,
I did:
The keyword appeared on Heading 1 and 2 and in url, also in descriptions.
Did auto biding, because for a day auto bidding will increase the ctr and will see less cpc
once within a day saw the less cpc I turned that cpc on manual bid after getting many clicks
even also try to place some relevant keywords within the LP
what else.. I hope this may work!

But if you are using phrase match keywords then might be the reason. use only keywords and make it phrase instead using (a,e,i,o,u)

Hi
Since you dont have too much money you may target age or location most of the time they help specially when you have low Budget.
