In webmaster world, there is a user which have a problem and posted it there asking for help. I will try to help you on this as it seems very strange problem:

Hi,

Its been nearly 2 years since I created or modified any adwords campaigns and I needed to finally do it today. Unfortunately, it seems any and every keyword (I literally submitted even garbage keywords like dasjdkasjdkjsaka) is getting penalized somehow that Adwords is asking me to bid $10.00/click. These aren’t competitive keywords either, low volume (< 10 searches/month), only 0-2 other bidders, tried broad/exact/phrase matches, all same results.

I'm pretty familiar with adwords, I'm picking relevant keywords, my landing pages all have unique content, full page reviews of the product i'm selling, keywords in the adgroups match those on the landing pages, etc. I'm baffled as to what else I can do to get a reasonable click minimum?

Contacting support yields the usual form mail response, links to optimization and tips pages which I've read inside and out.

I even setup a brand new adwords account hoping that it was my ctr history that was holding me down, but even that yielded the same results. I'm really stumped and have no idea what else I can do.

Can anyone provide suggestions?

Thank you kindly.

As you stated that you have unique content and all related to your landing page it seems that the problems are:

• Check your robot.txt to see if you disabled google bot (for landing page) have been banned from your site.

• As you stated (in other posts) that your site is new, Your domain name can be flagged or banned. Blacklisted domain names from Google could be permanently. My suggestion is to check with any Google rep. or call Google adwords to see what is the problem.

• This issue is so strange that may be you have problems with your Adword Account. Try to call them and see what they suggest.

• Try to use a different domain name

• Wait 7-10 days without doing anything and see if your campaigns will be active again.

• Remember the New google adwords rules, there are some niches that is not allowed in Google Adwords, are you promoting in those niches? May be this can be the reason.
