TrafficEstimator $0 Cost per Click error?

2011-10-26 Thread kath
What does a $0 value for cost per click mean in the Traffic Estimator
service?
Some keywords have a $0 cpc and also 0 monthly searches ... which
makes sense.
Other keywords e.g. 'Olay', location = US, language = english, maxCPC=
$100 with an EXACT match return $0 cost per click even though they
have tens of thousands of monthly searches

Is this a 'not enough data error'? Or in the case of not enough data
is there an error type which gets returned?
What interpretation can you put on this data?

Thanks!
Katherine

Hi Danial,
I am already using v201101 and the latest official ruby client.
Will send debug output tomorrow.
Cheers

No I have the same problem with a new gmail login

This time the request info is:
host=adwords-sandbox.google.com 
method=get responseTime=74
operations=0 
units=0 
requestId=0535b7d1e1f5032da38779b7e6ebcaa7 
isFault=true 
faultMessage="AuthenticationError.NOT_ADS_USER @ ; trigger:'507762239034' 
Service[TrafficEstimatorService.get]"

In the meantime I have updated the local ruby adwords client (to gem version 
1.3.6), but that has made no difference to the error.

TrafficEstimatorService minCPC values

2011-04-01 Thread kath
Can you help me understand the minCPC values I am getting back from the 
TrafficEstimatorService?
I am getting the values from: estimate.min.averageCpc.microAmount

With keyword = phone and match type = phrase, 

   - If I set the maxCPC to 100 I get a minCPC of 603452 microunits,
   - If I set fht maxCPC to 1000 or greater, I get a minCPC of 0 
   
Why does the maxCPC increating have this effect on the minCPC??

(NB location:US language: EN)

Cheers,
Katherine

create Keyword object with Ruby client and API v201008

2011-03-15 Thread kath
I am creating a Keyword object with the Ruby client and API v201008
using the following code:

traffic_estimator_service.module::Keyword.new('mars cruise', 'BROAD')

On inspection, the object has:
id= 'mars cruise'
Criterion.Type = BROAD
text = nil
matchType = nil

This looks like a bug in the Ruby client, as it should be
text = 'mars cruise'
matchType = BROAD


Has anyone successfully got a list of keyword estimates from the
traffic estimator service using Ruby?
