Hello,
   As per this page:
      " Your ads will be disapproved if final URL and display URL belong to different domains. "
One of our clients have mobile URLs that would look like it  belongs to a  different domain. The URLs have following format. 
        Destktop URLs :  http://www.YellowShirts.com 
        Mobile URLs:  http://m.ys.com 
        Display URL: www.YellowShirts.com
I am wondering whether my Ads would get flagged down if I copy the mobile URLs  to finalMobileURLs field. If so, can you suggest a workaround ? Please let me know if you need the actual urls to give a specific answer.

regards,
Santhosh

Hi Santhosh,

Yes, the URL will get disapproved for mismatched domains. If the domain were m.yellowshirts.com, the ad would work fine. I can't think of a workaround short of fixing the finalMobileUrl. (A redirect from m.yellowshirts.com redirect to m.ys.com wouldn't work, since that would also be a policy violation for crossdomain redirect). 

Cheers,

Hi Santhosh,

I don't know why this url got approved in the first place. With the url

http://{ifmobile:m.yp.com}{ifnotmobile:www.yellowpages.com}

you have 2 domains in the url, and there's a policy that you can have only one domain in an adgroup. I'd expect that this url as it exists today runs a risk of getting disapproved even if you leave it untouched.

Cheers,
Anash

Hi Anash,
   Thanks for the clarification. We currently have the destination URL in this format
      http://{ifmobile:m.yp.com}{ifnotmobile:www.yellowpages.com}
  Is there any chance the Ads would keep running, if we copy this to finalURL field (and keep  final mobile URL empty)  during the migration ?

regards
Santhosh
