Can you believe the word target can't be used in the English language and in advertising? Google are pathetic.
 
why ? any ideas
 
It came up with a trademark warning.

It's still in two previous ads as it only come up on the third. I used reach instead, it's not perfect English but what do yanks know about that anyway.
 
Just request a manual review - and explain you're using it in natural language.

Google has bazillions of monkeys as well as pigions.

The word was in the actual ad not a keyword, aint all that bothered I just thought it silly. Imagine if all the other words were trademarked as well, how would you write an ad? idiots.
 
Aren't they a parcel company? They probably trademarked the term :rolleyes:

That's all well and good as a keyword but not as an actual word in a sentance in an advert, it's barmy. What next, sue the Oxford Dictionary for listing it?
 
I've trademarked the letter E so please refrain from using it in your posts on here from now on, or I will be forced to take action. :D
