Google AdWords Sorting Bug Now Fixed

Earlier this month we reported that there was a Google Sorting Ad Groups by Clicks Bug that has been plaguing some advertisers since mid-December.

Since December 15th, WebmasterWorld members have been reporting a bug in Google AdWords where the ad group is being sorted by clicks and not alphabetically, by Ad Group name.

The bug seems to have been fixed.

Reports via the WebmasterWorld thread show that as of last night, around 7pm (EST), it has been fixed.

FIXED! Well at least it is now working for me how it used to. Hopefully everyone else has this standard functionality back as well.

Secondary confirmation comes this morning, so it seems Google may have fixed this one.

Forum discussion at WebmasterWorld.
