This is vital because ads not performing well will be a constant draw on your advertising resources, or it will sit and do nothing, taking up space and your attentions. When you could be concentrating on more profitable ads. You pay the search engine whether the clicks are productive or not.

What are the options for handling an ad that isn't producing.?

If you have done your homework and your ad is appearing within the first five to ten pages of search results it is time to determine whether or not the problem lies in your keywords. It is very tempting when choosing a keyword to select one that is among the most popular-after all, if it is popular that means that more people are going to be looking for it, right? Supply and demand, after all.

The negative part is that most of the very popular keywords are too generic. These usually are ones used to start an indepth search not the one where you find what you are looking for. So the internet searcher using this keyword doesn't really know what he wants so will click in and out of sites looking for it. The best keyword will be generic enough to be searched for by less educated consumers but still precise enough that your target audience will find it.

Careful monitoring of your advertisements is going to be a critical factor in the ongoing success of your AdWords campaign, and it is this ongoing success that will determine the future of your business. Ensure that you are taking every precaution to ensure that that future is a bright one.
