Hi I created a new ad in Google Adsense, and implemented the code on my site. The ads are served up normally but within the Google Adsense interface the ad is still marked as ‘New’ not ‘Active’. Does this mean that something is still not working? It’s been already 3 days since I created the ad and implemented it on the site.
Need a little clarity as you’re mixing terms…
Are you creating an ad with AdWords? If so, is your account funded properly with an active balance? The ad in a group and campaign that is set to show? With valid keywords and bids?
Do you see any alerts when you bring up the campaign / group / ad / keywords?
Your first ads do take longer to startup but 72 hours should be enough turn around.
