I created several campaigns using the MS adcenter. I'm targeting the whole world at any time with 2-3 placement texts per keyword group. The bids I placed are sometimes quite high, so they should get displayed.When I try to search for my keywords in Bing nothing gets displayed, though there is plenty of space for it. Bing mostly displays 2-3 ads, but the ones at the right side rather seldom.I'd like to know, how I can improve the fact that my ads are not being displayed - without increasing the bids any further.
Why does Bing not show my adcenter ads though there is enough space

If you  can't find your ad, try these  troubleshooting tips: Did you recently submit your ad group, ads, and keywords?If you can't find a recently submitted ad in the search results,  wait a few hours and then check again.  Sometimes there is a delay between the  time you submitted your ad and the  time it is displayed.Have you checked successive search results pages?Be sure to check the second, third, or even fourth page of Bing  results.Are your account, campaign, and ad group active?Although you may have given us your credit card information, it's a  good idea to double-check your account  status. The Accounts & Billing page  shows the status of your accounts.Select a campaign or ad group to check its status. Campaigns and ad  groups that are live have a status of  Active.Are your ads and keywords active?Click the Ads tab or Keywords tab to view the status of ads or  keywords. Ads and keywords that are  Active are approved and live. Ads with  Inactive status are not live during  the review process. Note that both the  ad and the keywords must be active. If  a keyword that is associated with your  ad is inactive or disapproved, your ad  will not be displayed in search  results.Does your ad campaign still have budget?Review the Change campaign settings page to see how much budget  you have available or whether an ad  group has the status Budget Paused  because you reached your budget limit.  For more information, see How campaign  budget limits affect ad display.Are you dividing your campaign budget across the month?Microsoft adCenter provides two options for spending your campaign  budget:        - Spend until depleted        - Divide your budget across the monthIf you're using the second option, your ad is unlikely to be  displayed with every search. To see  your ad, you might have to search  multiple times.Does your ad group have target settings?If the ad group is targeted to specific geographical locations, times  of day, or other target settings, you  might not see it if you don't meet the  targeting criteria. For example, you  might be in a different city than the  one you're targeting.Some web services offer public proxy servers, making it possible for  you to see your ads by using their  servers. Check the Internet for these  web services and instructions for how  to view your ads by using the specific  service. For more information, see  About targeting.Does your search use the same keyword search match types that you  defined for the ad?Make sure that your search takes into account your keyword match types:  broad match (The broadest keyword  matching option. If customers search  by using the words in your keyword  list, in any order, your ad will  display. Broad match can also trigger  displays for synonyms, plurals, and  related phrases, even when they're not  in your keyword list.) , phrase match  (A keyword option that considers your  keyword a match with a customer's  search query if the query includes all  words in the exact order given, even  in combination with other words. For  example, toy plane is a phrase match  with toy plane and wooden toy  plane but not with toy wooden  plane.) , exact match (The most  focused keyword matching option. When  you choose exact matching for a  keyword, your ad will appear only when  that exact keyword is entered with no  other keywords.) , and negative  keywords (A specific word or phrase  that helps to prevent your ad from  being displayed to customers who are  unlikely to click your ad.) . For more  information, see About search match  types.Does your search use the same language settings as your ad group  language and market setting?For example, if your ad group's language and market (A set of websites  that is typically defined by a  geographical region, but can be  accessed by everyone regardless of  where they are located.) setting is  English - United States and you are  searching www.bing.com with English  (United Kingdom) language settings,  you will not see your ads. To change  your Bing language settings, go to  www.bing.com, click Options, and  select the correct language.Does your search return any organic search results?If a keyword does not trigger any organic search results, it will  not trigger paid results either. In  that case, try using a different  keyword from the same ad group.Using the Ad Preview Tool The Ad  Preview Tool displays a Bing search  results page and Microsoft adCenter  ads for the keyword you specify. You  can use the tool to see which ads are  being displayed for a particular  keyword without affecting the  impressions (An ad that is served to  and displayed on a user's browser.) or  CTR (Click-through rate.The ratio of  the number of times an ad is clicked  to the number of times the ad is  displayed. ) of your campaign.Click the Tools tab, and then click Ad Preview Tool.On the Ad Preview Tool page, type the keyword for which you want to  find search ads, and then click  Preview Ads.If you see a security message, do one of the following:        * If the message says Do you want to view only the webpage content  that was delivered securely, click No  to proceed.        * If the message says This page contains both secure and  nonsecure items, click Yes to proceed.You might not see your ad on the  search results page in the Ad Preview  Tool for the following reasons:The tool shows ads as they appear to an average searcher.
