Followed the STM 40 but got all kw's disapproved in LI?

Hey team,

So I got my first campaign loaded into LI, after following the STM 40 day guide. Unfortunately though they disapproved my keywords and URLs, all of them.

In their terms the only thing I can find is "Targeting the same offer or URL that is being promoted is not permitted." I assume that means I cannot bid on brandname.com and its variations?

Or am I missing something?

My keywords were exactly as given in the guide, obviously replacing the outback with my offer so not sure how to improve/resubmit them at this point? It even declined google's suggestions such as brandname app, brandname coupon etc.

Thanks for any advice

You cannot bid on the url of the offer you are promoting. For example if you are promoting a Match.com offer, you can't bid on match.com, match, match com, etc... unless you're cloaking.
