    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.

    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!

    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... :)
