I use adwords, I'm sure mine started pretty much straight away.
I think if you have a fairly low maximum daily spend that google spreads your clicks throughout the day rather than people clicking first thing and then been off for the rest of the day.
Thats how ours seems to work, were there one minute then gone the next.

Have you got a cpanel through your webserver that you can log into to see if anyone is coming from google?

whats your daily spend limit on google adwords? at the mo i'm on £15 a month and 50p per day! to start with

That could be your problem. When you set a daily budget, Google will spread out your impressions over the whole day, meaning you wont appear for every search.

edit: yeah, what chipperhead said^

ok just edited my monthly budget to £95 do you think this is ok or a bit more!
