Wordfence country blocking suspends ads from Google Adwords

    Hi there!

    We’ve recently started running AdWords for our clients and have been fighting with Google AdWords support recently over them pulling a website since it isn’t globally available.

    We block all countries except for the US (small local businesses) and target only a radius of ~100 miles for all of our ads but Google pulled our ad since it isn’t “globally accessible.”

    Has anyone else had this issue? It’s a bit frustrating since we have country blocking on all of our websites and it looks like we won’t be able to run PPC ads for any of our clients.

    Best.

  • Hello zacinnovations,
    That seems like a business decision on googles part. I’m not sure if they offer any alternatives, you would have to check with them.

    I would suggest you use the Country blocking to only block access to authentication endpoints (Block access to the login form) but allow traffic from all countries to the rest of the site.

    I have had the same issue with them.

    Wfasa,

    How do you restrict Country Blocking to the authentication endpoint?

    I wasn’t aware that this was an option.

    Any information is appreciated.

    Nevermind. I found it.
