Screen Shots of the New Quality Score / First Page Bids

[GuyFromChicago]

The PPC Book has posted some screen shots of the new first page bids / 1 - 10 quality score.

Should be rolling out to all AdWords users soon...

Very interesting specially the part about 1/10 QS ranking.Didn't know that they are making that change.And also love the first page bid feature.

But as I understood now the QS will also be ranked from 1-10 not only great,ok,poor.

So, how come I don't see this column in my AdWords account?

seems to be hit and miss as to who is able to access it

PPC Book wrote "It’s a slow rollout I’m told and will take several weeks."

Guess we just have to be patient then...

Google released these QS changes to a very small amount of advertisers, so that they can gather feedback before launching to all their advertisers.

You just must wait!

Why is that?

Lost control over campaigns!!!

Everything is "fine" - even keywords with poor QS are rolling (as they say, as I see) but it is not at all. My spending is cut to half - was in peaks over 1000$ daily with lower ROI for 18%. Now I cant provide room on adwords system where to spend!

I tried to fix, to experiment, throwing sites for tests, days of work and thinking, and I am at beginning after whole month. Working like dog and nothing.

Adwords says: all kinds of keywords are good for us now, we giving chance to all, even your keywords sucks, even you, dear advertiser, was frustrated with QS... but I see that I am now more frustrated and all is in interest of advertisers that taking monopole over keywords.

I was more happy with overnight slaps with minimum CPC of 10$ because I knew what is my position, than now when all is "doing job" and it is not. Have still hundreds of great QS keywords and campaigns and nothing.

I am gonna start to think that I need luck for this business.


and to add that my sig space and blog feed is rented

AdWords is 1% luck and 99% skill/experience

I've seen all the changes in a few accounts but am holding off on passing any judgment until I get chance to kick things around.

Yeah, you are right, I lost a little bit of faith tonight, since it was day for paying taxes to authorities...
