a lot of UNEXPECTED_INTERNAL_API_ERROR

2010-12-16 Thread Irio
Hello there,


We're getting  a lot of UNEXPECTED_INTERNAL_API_ERROR latey.
We're using Traffic estimator, no sandbox, and things used to work
perfectly before...

My question is, besides what is happening, is, do we pay for all these
failed calls?


Cheers,
Irio

keyword categories problem

2010-12-09 Thread Irio
Hi!

We have queried quite a lot of keywords to get their categories from
the AdWords API and we are really disappointed!

One problem I see is that keywords, randomly longtail and "short" tail
have or have no categories.

Example:

"autovermietung berlin" has categories but "berlin" or
"autovermietung" do not.


These queries do cost, and to see we got answers only for around 16%
of our queries is very disappointing.

What is the problem, did we do somethign wrong?

Cheers,
Irio

if there is no data availabale (nulls) or the keyword does not exist

2010-11-30 Thread Irio
Hi Eric,


Where asking information on a certain keyword, if there is no data
availabale (nulls) or the keyword is not indexed/doesn't exist in your
database, upon asking STATS on it, do we still pay for this query?
(most probbaly yes, but it's worth asking information from the source
still :-)

Hi there,

Does anyone know, is there another way to check if/when the new
monthly data is there, besides looking at a word's monthly trend month
number?

the costs to get the average CPC for one keyword/weird units bill

2010-11-25 Thread Irio
Hi,

what is the cost to get the average cpc for one keyword?

The bill we have and the costs we supposed from your rate sheet just
do not match.,,

We used Traffic Estimator for more than 300.000 keywords and that
should be 15 units per call * 300.000 = 4.500.000
but the bill we got is for 3.300.000 units.

Did we miss something?


Greets,

how to get more than one category for a keyword

2010-11-18 Thread Irio
Hi all,

I am using the API to get categories for some keywords, here is a
piece of the Java code:

selector.setRequestedAttributeTypes(new AttributeType[]
{AttributeType.KEYWORD,
AttributeType.AVERAGE_TARGETED_MONTHLY_SEARCHES,
AttributeType.TARGETED_MONTHLY_SEARCHES,
AttributeType.KEYWORD_CATEGORY,
AttributeType.COMPETITION});

However I can see only one category at the moment - can one not get
more than one category for a single keyword?

I am new to this, maybe I just missed something somewhere...

Japanese keywords in German language+country search, KeywordTool

2010-07-30 Thread Irio
Hi there,

When logged in AdWords and using the Keyword Tool, when I set the
settings for country Germany, language German, and choose a certain
keyword category without providing a keyword seed, I also get Japanese
keywords.

If I uncheck "Miscellaneous terms" they disappear. Still, it shouldn't
really happen, as there is not a significant Japanese minority in
Germany.

Is there another way of avoiding this? Does this happen to others?  It
kind of looks like a bug..


Cheers,
Irio

Re: No results on API, thousands on keyword tool

2010-07-14 Thread Irio
I don't know about API because I have not worked with it, but with all
the rest of search volume tools.

But what i know is that you cannot book brand names.

Of course though a brand name has volume and maybe even that you reach
with it a website non-brand related (e.g. newpapers writing about the
brand).

You can look into search volumes from so many Google tools: the
AdWords KeywordTool, logged and non logged in, the search based tool,
ratios of search volume in Trends/Insights.

Hi,

My guess is because it is brand name... and you cannot book in a
campaign brand names afaik.
