Q

Why might some opportunities not be available for some campaigns?

A

Opportunities won’t always be available for every campaign at all times. There are a few common reasons why you might not see opportunities.

  • Your account doesn’t have any billing information.
  • Your account doesn’t have any campaigns.
  • Your ads aren’t receiving any traffic.
  • Your ads recently started running.
  • Or best of all: Your campaigns are already optimized.

If you don’t see opportunities in your tab, be sure to check back again soon – AdWords regularly discovers opportunities for you, and also launches new opportunity types.

  • Use consolidated billing to get just one, simple monthly invoice for all of your managed accounts.
  • Use alerts to efficiently monitor all of your linked accounts.
  • Quickly create and link AdWords accounts from within your manager account.

Q

What must you do before you’re able to start using your manager account?

A

To begin using your new manager account, you’ll need to link it to an existing or new AdWords account, or to another manager account. Then, you can view information across multiple AdWords accounts and switch between all linked accounts using just one login.

An individual AdWords account can be linked to no more than 5 manager accounts, and your managed account structure can be no greater than 6 levels deep. Also, a manager account can’t be directly managed by more than 1 other manager account.

Q

What happens when you link a manager account to an existing Adwords account?

A

When you link an existing AdWords account to a manager account, the original account remains unchanged and its account history remains intact. For example, invoicing and payment methods are not affected when an account is linked to a manager account.

The original users of the newly managed account continue to have access to the account’s billing and sign-in information. From the original user’s perspective, the account will look the same as ever, and is accessible with the same sign-in information as before, and with the same permissions. Keep in mind that when you link an existing AdWords account, it won’t have administrative ownership by default.

You can also link another manager account to your account, which lets you manage and view data for all of the AdWords accounts that are linked to that manager account. A manager account can’t be directly managed by more than 1 other manager account.

Q

What happens when you unlink a manager account from an existing Adwords account?

A

If you stop managing a particular account, a user of the manager account or the managed account (with the appropriate access level) will need to unlink the two accounts. Once this happens, you will no longer be able to access the managed account.

When you unlink an account that was using the manager account’s remarketing tag or any shared remarketing lists, the lists that rely on the shared tag will no longer populate, and the account will lose access to any of the manager’s shared lists. Any of the account’s ad groups that target these lists and any campaigns that exclude these lists will stop running. If the account was sharing its own lists, this change may affect ad groups and campaigns in other accounts that are targeting these lists.

If you unlink an account that was using your cross-account conversion tracking tag, that tag will no longer ​record conversions for clicks that take place after the account was unlinked. However, the cross-account conversion tracking tag will continue to record conversions for clicks that took place before the account was unlinked for the duration of the conversion window (typically 30 days). If the managed​ account had its own conversion tracking tag installed on the site previously, it will resume tracking conversions. ​Learn more about cross-account conversion tracking.​

Important: Unlinking from a managed account that’s on consolidated billing does not change the managed account’s billing settings. After you unlink the account, all active and pending budgets will remain active and the account’s ads will continue to serve and be billed to the original account.

Q

From your manager account’s “Account access” menu, you can invite users to your manager account

What are the four different types of access levels available to invited users to the manager accounts?

A

Similar to individual AdWords accounts, users of manager accounts can be assigned 4 levels of access: “Administrative, “Standard,” “Read only,” and “Email only.”

How much someone can see and do within a manager account and the accounts linked to it depends upon the level of access they’re granted for that manager account and whether the manager account is an administrative owner of an account.
