Error message

This error message usually occurs when you try to create an ad and you have excluded one of the selected keywords as a negative keyword in your Google Ads account.

There are 2 possible solutions here

1. You don't want to promote this keyword:

To solve the problem, please look at the selected keywords again and deselect the one that you have already excluded as a negative keyword in your Google Ads account.

You should also define this keyword as an exclusion in Shopstory. You do this by entering this under " My Shop " → " Search Terms " → " Exclusions ".

As a result, it will no longer be suggested to you in the future!

2. You want to promote this keyword after all:

Please log into your Google Ads account. There you will find the keyword that causes the error message under “ Keywords ” → “ Keyword to be excluded”. You simply delete this from the list. Now it should be possible to advertise the word via Shopstory.
