Quick answer<\/h2>\n

When a Microsoft Ads campaign shows “Active” but gets 0 impressions, the block is usually one level below the campaign: ads pending review, keywords marked low search volume, bids below the first page bid, a payment method that hasn’t cleared, or targeting so narrow there are no matching searches. Check each level’s delivery status, from account down to keyword.<\/p>\n

Why “Active” doesn’t mean “serving”<\/h2>\n

Campaign status tells you the campaign is switched on. It doesn’t tell you whether anything inside it can win an auction. An active campaign with no approved ads, no eligible keywords or no budget will still say active. The real answer is in the delivery status at each level, which you can hover for the reason.<\/p>\n
