Is that a long tail keyword?

@cherub4 because of your bidding strategy probably. Do you have conversions in the account already?

Have no clue what your asking, can’t even begin to guess since you have everything crossed out for some reason, so yeah. You might as well have posted a screenshot of your lock screen.

I'm guessing it's because your keyword has a very low search volume. You can use googles keyword planner, or neil patels ubersuggest to check search volumes on keywords.

Typically if a keyword has low impressions it means, for the parameters you're targeting, there aren't enough people searching for your keyword. Impressions occur any time someone has typed some broad iteration of your keyword (for broad match). If it doesn't have impressions, it means people aren't using that keyword. Could be seasonal shifts in the market or it simply may not be a popular search phrase people use in the location you're targeting. If I were you, I'd try looking through keyword planner for higher volume keywords. I would start troubleshooting and optimizing if I had a relevant keyword that was getting high impressions and no clicks.

Seriously it could be dozens of reasons why. from paused Campaigns/ad groups/ads to having the keyword in the same ad group with another keyword that Google believes it's more eligible for the search query. In order to answer your question on Bid strategies though if you don't have enough data then use the maximize conversions bid strategy and choose to "Pay for clicks". Though since you don't share anything I can't be sure if that's your issue
