Tutorial: Review and improve your quality scores
Make quality score optimization part of your routine
Why are quality scores important?
Your quality score reflects the overall quality of your ads. Assigned to every search keyword in your account, 10 is the best and 1 is the worst.
Your quality score is based on three sub-factors:
Expected click-through rate (CTR)
Ad relevance
Landing page experience
Google uses your quality score to determine how relevant your ads and landing pages are to any specific search. More relevance means higher quality scores. Higher scores mean your ads can show more often and in better positions. They can also decrease your CPCs.
In this tutorial, we'll show you how Adalysis can help you turn a sea of quality score data into clear priorities. And how to achieve more efficient PPC results.
Quality score priorities
Adalysis aggregates your keyword-level quality scores into account, campaign and ad group scores. It also shows you how you’re doing for each quality score sub-factor (expected CTR, ad relevance, and landing page experience).
Start exploring on the Quality score screen.
Account and campaign scores
You can use the account and campaign scores to prioritize what need attention first. The historical breakdown means you can track progress over time.
Keyword scores
You can also slice and dice your keyword scores by different metrics such as impressions, cost, and more.
Click on any chart segment and go straight to a full list of keywords in that category.
Alternatively, you can also toggle keyword quality scores on the Keywords screen. These options make it easy to prioritize which keywords to work on first.
Ad group scores
Adalysis calculates a quality score for every ad group. It combines your keyword scores for that ad group with the volume it generates for your account. This impression-weighting helps to prioritize high-volume ad groups with low scores.
Click Analyze ad groups for a full list of your ad groups in priority order.
