Keyword Quality Score is 8/10
-
Hi,
I have few keywords in my Adwords search campaign with quality score 8/10. When I checked everything is above average like 1>Ad relevance 2> Landing Page Experience 3> Expected click through rate.to
If everything is above average what to improve to get quality score 10/10??
I'm using most of the ad extension
Thanks

Hey Alick300,
Optimizing QS can be a bit of a hassle, but is definitely something that is solvable, and while Roman gave some good tips, I'm going to break down the scoring to hopefully help you get to the bottom of this issue.
While you said there were scores of 8 with all above average, I urge you to double check & screenshot if that is the case. Based on the way QS is calculated (see below), this cannot be the case.
QS calculations in AdWords are, as of the time of writing this, 1 + (Landing Page Experience Value) + (Ad Relevance Value) + (Expected CTR Value).
I have added a table below that breaks down the "Value" for each of these 3 facets.Landing Page Experience
- Above Average - 3.5
- Average - 1.75
- Below Average - 0
Ad Relevance
- Above Average - 2
- Average - 1
- Below Average - 0
Expected Click-Through-Rate
- Above Average - 3.5
- Average - 1.75
- Below Average - 0
So you can see that your score could be average on just CTR or Landing Page Experience and you would get an 8.25 (1+1.75+2+3.5 = 8.25). Google AdWords doesn't show decimals so you would see this value as a rounded 8 in the interface.
If you can re-check the QS values & paste that information here I'd be more than happy to help you further improve the QSs of those keywords!
Hope this helps!

In my opinion get 10/10 is not easy, 8/10 is a very good, based on my experience if you want a better rank you will need to work on A/B test and conversion rate optimization.
which include
- Make experiments with the texts
- Make experiments with the images and media
- Add some video
- Create one keyword Adgroup will increase even more your relevance
The A/B test process to improve your landing can take a month or even more depends on many factors
Other tools that can help you are some video recorder to track your user's behavior.
CrazyEgg for me is the best solution for heat maps but Hotjar offer a better all one solution (heatmaps and video tracking)

Keyword & negative keyword overlap
So I just read your blog on quality score and after reading the negative keyword section I'm a little confused and I need clarification. In that paragraph you mentioned about not overlapping your negative keywords with your active keywords and you used an example of dog food and dog bed. So my question is, if you put the word dog bed into the negative keyword list isn't the word dog the over lap word? Would you ad not show because the word dog is in the active keyword list?

Why is my quality score so low?
I am not sure if this is the best place to ask a PPC question but figured it was worth a shot. I am trying some different keywords around the word "wedding venue" for instance "amazing wedding venue" or "iowa wedding venue". This is the landing page, http://germanhausbarn.com/wedding-venue/ . What I can't figure out is why I am getting 1/10 quality score for most of those keywords. Is there something I am missing?

Does sitewide SEO affect PPC Quality Score?
When evaluating a PPC landing page for Quality Score, does Google evaluate the other pages that the landing page is linked to? For example, if we have a well optimized page on the site for "Widgets", can it outscore a well optimized PPC landing page that is isolated in a "disallow" directory with no links into or out of the page? I'm not sure if I am making myself clear...

Adwords Keyword Quality Score changes when keyword is paused
Today I was pausing a bunch of low quality score keywords for a client, the thing is, once I paused the keywords, the quality score would immediately change. For example, a number of keywords that had a QS of 3 while they were running, immediately changed to 1 once paused. Out of curiosity I un-paused one of them and it remained at 1. Has anyone else experienced this and/or have an explanation? Cheers
