The Ad Preview Tool will allow you to pick the specific geographic area from which to preview your ads. We suggest picking your store’s zip code for the most accurate representation of your local ads.<\/p>\n In order to generate more new business for you, your Paid Media Team will sometimes stop users from seeing your ads if they have already engaged with your business by phone, form, purchase, or significant website usage. If this is the case, you could be an excluded user. Your Paid Media Team will be able to answer this question for you.<\/p>\n You are not your ad\u2019s target audience.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n The delivery of your ads is a finely tuned machine and if you’re not a potential consumer, chances are good that you’ll see your ads much less frequently than they actually deliver to other targeted users who are more inclined to buy.<\/p>\n How do you know which search is a potential customer?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n In addition to extensive keyword management, there are many tools available to a Paid Media Specialist<\/a> to control the delivery of ads, including what is sometimes called “Enhanced Bidding.” Tools like this allow your Paid Media Specialist to use historical conversion performance to modify the delivery of your ads.

Are they phone calls? Form fills? Online sales? Your V Digital Services Team is always able to provide you updates on these important metrics.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n For more details on the above information, you can use Google’s official troubleshooting form, here:<\/p>\n http:\/\/support.google.com\/adwords\/troubleshooter\/1711301?hl=en<\/a><\/p>\n If you’re still concerned about ad delivery, your V Digital Services Account Manager is more than willing to provide a thorough diagnosis and report the results back to you.
