I’d love to hear from anyone that has set up a new adwords campaign recently to see if they have had a similar problem. It’s always been that Google automatically entered you into their content network, but you had the option of unchecking the box and opting out at least.

Now it seems some users have found that setting up a new campaign means you do not have the opt out option anymore. I can tell you that if Google forces me to participate in the content network, I’ll opt out of google adwords altogether.

I just set up a quick campaign on Google Ad Words for one of my new affiliate sites, and nowhere along the way was I offered the option of being in the content network, nor was I shown this usual checkbox that says I’m going to be included. Doesn’t that seem wrong?

Basically, as far as I can tell, it’s now completely impossible to add a new campaign without being automatically added to the content network. Am I seeing this correctly? When did this change?

Well I haven’t had a chance to try it yet to see if this is the case for me. Have any of you set up a new adwords campaign recently? Did it let you opt out of the content network?
