    Am I Being Charged for Invalid Clicks in Google Ads?

    Posted by remedib2bintegration on September 21, 2022 at 3:38 pm

    So I just checked my overview page in our Google Ads account and saw that my ad got 24 clicks. Problem is, none of those clicks are on my enabled keywords.

    While I wait for Google support to investigate this issue, has anybody every had this problem?

    Thanks for your insights!

    Phrase match is now broad match (it’s still advertised as phrase match), so all sorts of keywords are going to trigger your ads.

    It’s completely unethical behaviour by Google.

    Do you have search partners and display expansion turned on? Go to segments and add Network. That will show you if your impressions/clicks were search results, search partners, or display
