I can't even get impressions for non-acai offers (the site I just put up isn't even remotely related to the dieting niche). What the fuck is the problem Google? I thought content network mainly takes into account clicks for quality score, but now it seems like they are looking at my LPs etc and shutting shit down.

New domain, one page hitjob (which previously didn't matter but now apparently it does), and fuck all for impressions. Like someone said in another thread, I guess Google doesn't want our fucking money.

The excuse I got for my shut down acai site was that "it is not fair for you to promote your lower quality site versus other higher quality sites as it drives up their bids etc". Who fucking cares on the content NW? I mean I understand if they don't like their adblocks reading the same "1 Flat Stomach Rule..." but this is a totally different ad and different niche.

I hear ya man.

Same thing happened to me, I did the same and created campaigns that weren't even related... still no impressions.

Anyone else having this issue, I was thinking maybe a flagged account?

Google are a bunch of cocksucking whores. On one front, they will take your money for sellling cock rings, and on the other they don't want you to sell harmless Acai.
 
I just got all my ads in one of my content network campaigns disapproved. The reason stated on each is "Unacceptable Business Practices"

Not sure what the fuck they expect me to do with that so I just edited each ad and it's working again, for now anyway.
 
WTF is up with all the Content Network threads?.. It's like facebook all over again.. Somone please start a CN thread so all the questions get put there?

Thanks Chief, I'll get right on creating another more descriptive thread and telling everyone to put all their content related problem posts in there. Great suggestion.

:xmas-smiley-016:

Anyways....I figure my account now has been flagged and that G pretty much has their bot scan my site almost immediately after putting up an ad. Last time I asked their brilliant offshore support they told me that for any QS changes, I will need to wait until their bot scans my site again, which can take up to a max 6 weeks. Uhhh ya ok.

If I create a new account, different credit card, different name, but same address will G know right away to flag this one too? Has anyone tried this and received better results?

Interesting, I guess they just didn't like the ad itself.

I think my situation has to do with the entire domain itself. I just resubmitted a shitload of new ads and keywords to this same campaign last night and none are showing impressions this morning. This is on a brand new domain that I purchased on Tuesday night.

Really pisses me off as my site is a great looking LP, it's unique and isn't like I'm direct linking etc. I could see if I had a bunch of shitty looking Becky's Weight Loss blogs that they would wanna take me down, but the shit I'm promoting is 180 degrees different and isn't even close to weight loss. If they are worried about quality, then maybe they should quit approving Wu-Yi direct links w/1 Flat Stomach Rule ads. I still see a shitload of those out there and just floors me that they approve those but can't approve my unique and somewhat quality shit.
 
Woke up this morning and all my content network campaigns were slapped. 2 different niches... neither I would really consider all that nefarious.
 
I was wondering how long it would take this to happen. Content Network as a loophole to QS may be drying up.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, someone needs to rise up and take the big G down a notch. This is getting frickin ridiculous.

That's never gonna happen unless some company starts a rival search engine that actually stood a chance of competing. Of course, if it was any decent I bet you'd have a TON of affiliates leaving Google. But hey, that's what you get in a monopoly - the single seller is the pimpdaddy and every consumer is his bitch.
 
Me too. They deactivated my entire account even though the majority of the campaigns had nothing to do with weight loss/acai....and I spend close to $100k with them this year.

fuck 'em. Google's day will come.
 
I've spent well over $1 million with them this year, so that obviously doesn't factor into their decision.
