Relevance and Quality Score

15/15
  • Quality Score is an estimate of how relevant ads, keywords and website are to the person seeing the ad. 
  • Having a high Quality Score means that Googles system thinks your ad, keywords and website are all relevant and useful to those people seeing the ad. 
  • Quality Score plays a role in how high on the list your ad will be and on how much the business pays per click. 
  • The higher the Quality Score the better your position on Google and the less you will be per click. 
  • How Google calculates Quality Score

    Every time someone does a search that triggers your ad, Google calculates a Quality Score. 
    • keyword's past clickthrough rate (CTR): How often that keyword led to clicks on your ad
    • display URL's past CTR: How often you received clicks with your display URL
    • account history: The overall CTR of all the ads and keywords in your account
    • the quality of your landing page: How relevant, transparent, and easy-to-navigate your page is
    • keyword/ad relevance: How relevant your keyword is to your ads
    • keyword/search relevance: How relevant your keyword is to what a customer searches for
    • geographic performance: How successful your account has been in the region you're targeting
    • ad's performance on a site: How well your ad's been doing on this and similar sites (if you're targeting the Display Network)
    • targeted devices: How well your ads have been performing on different types of devices, like desktops/laptops, mobile devices, and tablets – you get different Quality Scores for different types of devices
  • I love that Google gives a deal(discount) when businesses work at improving their ads. 
  • I love that Google provides a keyword tool to help insure better keywords. 
  • I will use the keyword tool to increase my quality score.
