Hi Nates,
Have you got the option active to show on the content network?
Or, have you turned the content network off?
You need to choose the placements under the networks Tab to choose what sites your ads will show on.
Automatic placement or manual.

They are all relevant to your question and by reading them all you will have a better understanding of the content network.

You will need to set Manual Bidding up.
The CPC can be set for each ad placement or adgroup theme so just look at your ads and edit the CPC.
