Google has confirmed a problem with Google Advertisements this morning, saying, “We’re investigating stories of a problem with Google Advertisements. We’ll present extra data shortly.”
I’m not positive precisely what the problem is, however once I dug into the complaints within the Google Advertisements Assist Boards thread I discovered quite a few complaints round advertisements not being served, the advertisements not displaying in Google Search and different Google surfaces.
It’s unclear if it is a serving problem or a reporting problem or one thing else.
A number of advertisers are complaining that their advertisements aren’t getting impressions or clicks this morning.
Listed here are quite a few these threads:
I do not need affirmation but on the precise “problem” with Google Advertisements but, so as soon as I get that, I’ll replace this story.
Discussion board dialogue at X.
Replace: An hour and a half later, Google mounted the “problem” however by no means mentioned what the “problem was. Google wrote, “The issue with Google Advertisements has been resolved. We apologize for the inconvenience and thanks in your persistence and continued assist.”
