Google Quality Score Beta

By Jeremy Schoemaker 8 comments

I really like the new quality score display on Google Adwords. Now you can see instantly what your quality score is. No more guessing if your price is due to a crappy landing page or if the market just commands those prices. I will write on this more as I get more experience with it.

Check out this screen shot (not mine).

I would post some of mine but I believe its against the TOS in beta testing.

Edit: After finding this forum post it seems not everyone was invited to the Adwords Quality Score beta like I first thought….

not got it on mine yet. Don’t know if it’s anti UK or just anti me
Looking forward to the roll out though. It should help stop the “fumbling in the dark” feeling you often get!

You can contact Google and ask to be included in the program. Doesn’t seem like they have any limits at this point (Two of our clients asked to be included and got the feature activated)

3700 impressions with only 7 clicks. Not a very good campaign to start off.

It’s kind of redundant, if they are giving me a minimum bid of $10.00 I kinda think they consider my landing to be poor quality, if I have a minimum bid of $0.02, they love me. I don’t see any value in adding text information to the currency information. What value is this extra word?

I can not trackback to you.
It is a hand-made ping.

[...] Eine kleine Zusammenstellung verschiedener Google Jokes findet man auf Google Blogoscoped. Die PageRank Search auf SEOChat.com ist immer dann nützlich, wenn man seine Ergebnisse nach PR ordenen will (etwa wenn man nach Wordpress-Accounts oder Domains sucht ). Bei SEOFm gibt’s den Jahresüberblick als Podcast. Empfehlenswert. Adwords wird in Zukunft den Quality Score anzeigen. Schluss mit raten und optimieren ohne genau zu wissen ob es etwas gebracht hat. Und wer will, kann sich den Bundestrojaner downloaden.. [...]
