Understanding Google Ads connection and service problems

Google Ads UI access, campaign reporting and ad delivery require different checks.

The checker above requests ads.google.com from eight configured locations and shows the responses and measurement times. Compare those observations with the actual Google Ads action that failed. A homepage response alone cannot verify an account, app workflow or transaction.

Google Ads official website and help

Google Ads help and reporting

Choose the advertising account and campaign/report issue; Workspace status is a different scope.

Open ads.google.com

Open the website in your browser and compare it with the result above.

Where to report problems with Google Ads

Open Google Ads help / reporting. Use the provider's customer-service or account-help route for the affected product. Sign-in may be required for private account questions.

Details to include in your report

Ads account ID through private support, campaign/report scope, time range, error and affected action.

Attach the checker’s downloaded JSON if it helps show the hostname, regional responses and original timestamps. Describe what happened in your browser or app as well. A report sent to WebsiteDown.org is not automatically forwarded to Google Ads.

What to check when Google Ads is not working

These are troubleshooting comparisons, not claims that Google Ads is currently experiencing a particular incident.

Start with the action that failed

Compare whether you can read campaign settings while reports fail, and record the report's date range and freshness.

Narrow down the affected service

Use Google Ads' own status and support resources; a campaign approval or billing issue is not established by a website reachability test.

Read the actual checker response

A 403 Forbidden or 429 Too Many Requests means the host answered but refused or limited that request. A timeout gives no HTTP response. Keep those outcomes separate and check the available-region count before treating the result as broad evidence.

How to check if Google Ads is down

Save the error. Note what you were doing and when it failed. Save unfinished work before refreshing.
Run the ads.google.com check. Look at the regional results and when they were checked. Checking again may return a cached result.
Check for a service notice. Open Google Ads help and use its guidance or announcements for the exact feature. Do not treat a general homepage as an outage bulletin.
Try another browser or network. Use the specific checks above to narrow down the problem. If it continues, send the error and time through the official help link.

If Google Ads Is Not Working Only For You, Start Here

Use these local troubleshooting steps after the down-check workflow when Google Ads seems broken only for you. This section focuses on app, browser, account, and network fixes.

1. Compare browser sessions

Open ads.google.com in your current browser, then test in a private window or second browser. If only one session fails, compare its account, cookie and extension context before assuming the entire service is unavailable.

2. Preserve a working account session

Keep an existing working session and preserve unsaved work. For a sign-in failure, use the official account-help route. Avoid repeated password or security resets until you confirm this is not a broader Google Ads issue.

3. Try another network

If possible, compare Wi-Fi with mobile data and note which one fails. Leave any required work VPN or security settings in place.

4. Capture support-ready evidence

Save timestamp, device, network type, exact error, final URL, and status code. Use the check workflow above before contacting Google Ads support.
