Adwords: Pause or Reduce Budget?

[AdHustler]

Hi all,

I run a lot of adwords but i rarely pause a campaign to bring it back in a few days. I have a campaign set to $1000 daily spend and i need to stop the traffic on it temporarily starting tomorrow. Do you think im better off hitting pause or reducing my budget to something small like $5/day?

I'm trying to make it so when i revive the campaign in a few days, i keep the same QS, CPC etc.

Thanks

I would suggest pausing it which will not effect any of your existing stats, and so will not effect your QS and your subsequent CPC.

A few days paused should be fine.

Just use the scheduler and change your spend % on there

Agree!!!

Pausing is the worst thing you can do if you ever start running this thing again!

Just use the scheduler and change your spend % on there

are you saying just set it to run like 10 minutes a day?

Don't pause it, just reduce your budget very low.

That's what I usually do if I need one to stop running for a while.

I'd just schedule it not to run tomorrow.

Pause it; Period.

Time Scheduling FTW.

Yeah, and you can even set the % you want to spend in those 10mins.

This is the worst advice I have ever heard. You obviously don't know adwords for shit huh.

As others have stated above just time schedule.

+ 1 for time schedule

i had some keywords that had 7/10 QS, paused it for a few days, now they have 10/10 QS lol

Looks like "time scheduling" is in the majority.

 

[DonDadda]

I would time schedule it.

 

[Sohan]

Yep, shoot for timing it. Only thing that doesn't affect the bids / or any financial value. Safest bet with this huge Nazi imo. FUCK GOOGLE!

 

[beejeebers]

Agreed, you'll kill it if you pause it. Use ad scheduling.

Even the sun shines on a dogs anus once in a while.

people are saying pause the campaign, i generally say just reduce your bids.
