It uses that score to determine ad rank and how much you pay per click. It reflects how relevant your ads, keywords and landing page is to the people viewing your ad. A low quality score means your ads, keywords and landing page is not too relevant for your target audience. Higher the quality score, the lesser is what you pay. You need to edit or modify ads with low quality score.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #99cc00;\">Quality Score = Competition Ad rank\/ Actual CPC<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>A high Quality Score- relevant<\/li>\n<li>A low Quality Score- not working<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #99cc00;\"><strong>Determine Conversion Rate<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Conversion tracking allows you to see which ads, ad groups and campaigns are driving maximum ROI. Conversion rate is the percentage of users clicking on your ad and taking valuable actions such as filling lead generation form, purchasing product or making a phone call. Calculate conversion rate by dividing total number of leads generated by the total number of clicks during the same period. You can use conversion tracking tool to measure your conversion rate.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #99cc00;\"><strong>Conversion Rate = leads\/clicks X 100<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">By measuring conversion rate on each ad group, you can determine the best place to distribute budget. It will help you to identify ad groups where you should bid more aggressively or decrease bids to derive maximum ROI.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #99cc00;\"><strong>Ad Performance<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Track the performance of your ad group and look for the average position to find out the exact place where your ad is ranking on Google Search. Position one to ten ranks on the first page of Google SERPs. You can check the status of your running ads in the \u201cstatus\u201d column of the statistic table.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In case you are running multiple ad in one ad group, your ads will be rotated. Find the most engaging ad group by simply comparing conversion rates of various ads you are running.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #99cc00;\"><strong>Keyword Performance<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Measure the performance of your keywords and track whether your keywords are triggering ads to run. Check the summary of each keyword by simply clicking on speech bubble. Quality score determines the relevancy of your keyword. Monitor quality score for each keyword and keep modifying your keywords to attain the highest score.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Select \u2018Search Term\u2019 section to see list of searches that drove traffic. Use this data to identify keywords which are most successful. Add irrelevant terms into negative keywords to prevent your ad from showing on those terms.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Invest more in the campaigns which are generating higher conversions.
