AdWords API Re: site exclusion campaign level support?

2008-11-06 Thread Doug Stallman
Can you give us an idea when that may be available?

Also I'd like to confirm there is no way to get/edit (via API) 
demo/topic exclusions users have set via web interface?

If not, when will those be available via api at campaign level?

Thanks for the info!

Hello Doug,

 You are correct. No additional functionality related to campaign-

AdWords API Re: The following columns are not supported by the Report Type Keyword : [ConversionRate]

2008-11-06 Thread AdWords API Advisor

Hello,

 ConversionRate is only supported a supported column if you're running
your report as the context of an MCC account (which you don't appear
to be, because you have the clientEmail SOAP header specified) or if
the specific account has conversion tracking enabled. Based on what
you're saying, I'd guess that the account you're running this
particular report against doesn't have conversion tracking enabled.
Can you confirm that?

AdWords API Re: Changing Match Type on KeywordTool getKeywordVariations does not change avgSearchVolume

2008-11-06 Thread DavM

Hi Jeff

Thanks for looking into this.

What's quite disappointing is that the web version of this tool still
has more functionality than the API version even after version 13 of
the API. If you search the API KeywordTool using a keyword on any
match type, the results for avgSearchVolume and lastMonthSearchVolume
will always be for broad match, whereas once you have searched on the
web based KeywordTool (https://adwords.google.com/select/
KeywordToolExternal) you have the capability to see the searche
volumes for exact, phrase and broad match. Wouldn't it be great to
choose the match type of the resultant keyword volume figures in the
API?

This would be really useful as it would tell you the actual searches
for those exact keywords? For example, if I do a search for "travel
insurance" or "insurance travel" using the API the avgSearchVolume is
1,000,000 for both keywords as essentially they are the same keyword
on broad match. If I do the same searches on the web KeywordTool and
then choose to get the results in exact match the avgSearchVolume
figures are 368,000 and 2,400 respectively. Much more useful for
research purposes.

Is this development in the pipeline? It would be very useful!

Cheers

David

AdWords API Re: Changing Match Type on KeywordTool getKeywordVariations does not change avgSearchVolume

2008-11-06 Thread AdWords API Advisor

Hello Daniel,

 I do see different results for 'adwords api' with Broad and Exact
matching. The results are mostly the same, it's true, but there are
additional results returned with Broad matching that aren't in Exact,
like 'adwords keyword tool api', 'com google api adwords v2', 'adwords
editor api', 'com google api adwords v11', and a few others.

 If it looked like the match type parameter had absolutely no effect
for any keyword then I'd agree that something was amiss, but that does
not appear to be the case.

AdWords API AW: AdWords API Keyword Report - High Cost Value

2008-11-06 Thread Tino Hertlein

There is no problem, and no parameter is lacking: 
AdWords calculates Bid Amounts in 'millionths of the fundamental currency 
unit', so you have to divide the results by 1.000.000 

please see

Hello,

When I create a keyword report, calling the API through Java, the
values of the Cost column are very high in the returned xml. When they
were supposed to be 0.13, they appear as 130.000.  My currency is BRL.

The parameters of the report are:

selected.report.type=Keyword
aggregation.type=Summary
selected.columns=Campaign,AdGroup,Keyword,Impressions,Clicks,CTR,CPC,Cost,AveragePosition,KeywordMinCPC,KeywordTypeDisplay,MaximumCPC,KeywordDestUrlDisplay
include.zero.impression=false
cross.client=true

What is the problem whith my report? Is there some parameter lacking?


Tks,

This seems to be a question not related to the Google-AdWords-API but to Google 
AdSense.

Betreff: AdWords API Google ads on my site


Hi everyone,

I have a website that sells vintage and modern watches. I have a forum
and get good traffic so I have inserted a ggogle ad box to see if I
can gain some revenue towards costs. Unfortunately it looks like
Google runs ads for counterfeit watch websites. Obviously the analysis
of my content has just though, oh, watches - right send these ads
Unfortunately my site would help to legitimize this Criminal practice.
What can I do to stop these ads running in my adbox...?

Any ideas? please let me know... [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Alistair

AdWords API Re: Google ads on my site....

Hello Alistair,

 This Google Group is for technical discussion of the AdWords API. To
deal with the issue you're describing you would have to contact Google
AdSense support. The proper starting point would be the AdSense help
center at

AdWords API Re: problem in reports generation

2008-11-06 Thread AdWords API Advisor

Hello Afzaal,

 Once your report finishes and you retrieve its URL with
getGzipReportDownloadUrl()/getReportDownloadUrl() you should retrieve
the report using some sort of HTTP client library--shelling out to
curl might be appropriate for the PHP use case. Once you retrieve the
report you should store it locally and expose a link to the local copy
of the report in your web interface.

 It's tempting to just expose links to the URLs returned by
getReportDownloadUrl() in your web interface, but those URLs are not
valid indefinitely and will expire after a period of time, so you
really should retrieve the report right away and serve it locally.

Cheers,
-Jeff Posnick, AdWords API Team

AdWords API Re: Changing Match Type on KeywordTool getKeywordVariations does not change avgSearchVolume

2008-11-06 Thread GuavaDF

Hi Jeff,

I'm experiencing the same problem. I also tried the two queries you
suggested but get exactly the same results.
Is this a bug that you guys will try to fix or won't it be possible to
get specific results if I set the SeedKeyword type to Exact?

Cheers,
Daniel Ford, Guava

AdWords API Re: Timezone of data returned in Ad Group Performance Report ?

2008-11-06 Thread AdWords API Advisor

Hello,

 Please see

Reports, like all other AdWords statistics, should be local to the
AdWord account's time zone.

AdWords API Keyword Report - High Cost Value

2008-11-06 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hello,

When I create a keyword report, calling the API through Java, the
values of the Cost column are very high in the returned xml. When they
were supposed to be 0.13, they appear as 130.000.  My currency is BRL.

The parameters of the report are:

selected.report.type=Keyword
aggregation.type=Summary
selected.columns=Campaign,AdGroup,Keyword,Impressions,Clicks,CTR,CPC,Cost,AveragePosition,KeywordMinCPC,KeywordTypeDisplay,MaximumCPC,KeywordDestUrlDisplay
include.zero.impression=false
cross.client=true

What is the problem whith my report? Is there some parameter lacking?


Tks,

Diogo
