Do I get charged for a URL that isn't working from Adwords?

Question

If someone clicks on my ad on Adwords and if the URL is not working, do I still get charged even though the customer was not taken to my landing "Business Page"? Thank you for your help.

Answer 1

This issue is being discussed in the help section of AdWords right here ... http://groups.google.com/group/adwords-h...

Answer 2

I believe you will still get charged.  Google requires ads to contain a working destination URL.  If the URL in your ads is not functioning, technically speaking your ads should not be running.
