Google Adwords will be down for maintenance this Friday

May 18, 2005

AdWordsAdvisor has alerted advertisers that the AdWords system will be down for “maintenance” this Friday.

Anyway per frequent requests heard on this Forum, I wanted to give all you advance notice that this Friday, 5/20, the AdWords system will be unavailable from roughly 9 p.m. to 9:45 p.m. PDT (US), for system maintenance.

A UI message will also appear in your accounts before too long.

And as always, you have our apology for any inconvenience that this’ll cause. I do hope, though, that the early notice will allow you to plan accordingly.

Thanks to AWA for giving the heads up, which is also announced on Inside Adwords.

No word on whether publishers will also notice downtime in the AdSense control panel at the same time, although usually if one is down, it affects the other.
