Essential SEO Tools & Resources

A couple of weeks ago I had an email from a guy at Google Adwords saying that the Adwords campaign for my Keyword Elite page had been paused as there was a problem with my web page. The email was really impersonal and simply referred me to their terms of service. Well I just could not see what was wrong with the page, it hadn't been changed for months, yet now it was a problem! So I replied to the email and asked for guidance? None was forthcoming.

So I made a couple of changes to the page and the Adwords Ad itself and resubmitted it. Within a couple of days I had a new email stating that my page was still invalid and if I tried running the campaign again my Adwords account would be terminated and that should I open a new account I would be in trouble! Charming!

I replied again begging for more guidance to which I got a reply … it stated that my page didn't comply with their terms and conditions … how frustrating!

The sooner someone comes along and destroys their dominance the better … would it actually harm them to offer a more precise reason for the non conformance … they obviously know what is wrong so why not share it with me!

Now what has really bugged me is that they have dropped my page out of their rankings! It was hovering just off page 1 of the serps. But since the Adwords problem it has disappeared without a trace!

So last night I bought a new domain, www.keywordelitemasterplan.com and published a new sales page … I've set a new Adwords campaign going so we'll see if they like it or not … if anyone can spot what they don't like on my original page, Keyword Elite, please let me know … maybe I'm been stupid, but I can't see what they don't like!
