Expected clickthrough rate: The likelihood that the ad will be clicked Show
Be specific in your ad: Include keywords in your ad text (especially in the headline) to show people
that your ad is directly relevant to their search. Ad relevance: How closely the ad matches the intent behind a user's search Add negative keywords: Prevent your ads from showing on unwanted queries or queries not closely related to your product or service. Landing page experience: How relevant, transparent, and easy-to-navigate the page is for users Send traffic to the right landing page: Direct clicks to pages related to a user's query. If a search is for "striped shirts," the landing page should
feature striped shirts, not some other variety of shirts or clothing in general. Quality Score can be a valuable tool in identifying ways to improve your ads, keywords, and landing pages. You can think of Quality Score as a general indicator of which areas to focus on to improve ad quality, rather than a score to be optimized. This article guides you through different ways to use your Quality Score to improve your performance. 1. Review your Quality Score componentsFor specific insights on where to make improvements, dive deeper into the 3 components of Quality Score:
These components can help you see whether to update your ad text, keyword selection, or landing page content. You’ll see a status of “Below average,” “Average,” and “Above average” for each component to give you a sense of which areas might need improvement. The key point is: give your users what they’re looking for and good performance should follow. Focus on your long-term performance goals and look for ways to reach them by improving your user experience, using Quality Score as a diagnostic tool. 2. Make ads more relevant to keywordsAd relevance shows you how relevant your ads are to the keywords they’re targeting. If your Ad relevance has a status of “Below average” or “Average,” try these best practices:
Note that moving an ad group with the same ads and keywords to another campaign or account does not impact your ad quality. 3. Try to improve your clickthrough rate (CTR)Expected clickthrough rate indicates how likely people are to click your ad. If your Exp. CTR has a status of “Below average” or “Average,” try these best practices:
There may be times when a more specific ad leads to lower CTRs, but higher conversion rates. Look for the balance that leads to the best possible performance for your goals. For example, let’s say you sell luxury dress shoes. Adding a phrase to your ad like “free bow tie with order” may attract shoppers looking for deals. On the other hand, phrases like “fine craftsmanship” or “custom Italian design” may engage people looking for a quality brand. The bargain message may get you more clicks, but may not result in as many loyal customers over the long term. 4. Consider updating your landing pageBringing people to your site is only one part of online marketing. It’s important to provide visitors with an excellent experience on your website. If your Landing page exp. has a status of “Below average” or “Average,” try these best practices:
Keep in mind, the word-for-word phrase from a search term doesn’t need to be on your landing page. A search for “South Chicago Chihuahua-friendly budget hotels” doesn’t need to lead to a landing page with the headline “South Chicago Chihuahua-friendly budget hotels.” Instead focus on creating great experiences that deliver what the user is looking for. 5. Use Quality Score with other metricsLook at other metrics in your account, like clickthrough rate, conversion rate, and site engagement. They’re connected to your performance and can help as you look for specific areas to improve. As you review your performance, you can use Quality Score as a filter to tell you where to focus your efforts:
