No one can figure this one out. I have 1/10 POOR Quality Score for all my Keywords ever since I started yet have a professional site, company and followed all the guidelines. Suspecting some malicious code or just frustrated. Site: www.LandscapeLightingWorld.com Keyword: Landscape Lighting Ad: Landscape Lighting MegaStore... Landing Pages: Home Page www.landscapelightingworld.com Google says landing page irrelevant, yet everyone agrees it is relevant. In case it was be3cause there were more images than "readable text" I switched to a different landing page that had lots of targeted text.... http://www.landscapelightingworld.com/How-To-Install-Landscape-Lighting-Instruction-Guide-a/153.htm Still have a 1/10 poor and none of my 400 keywords are displaying ads. Note all keywords, ads and landing pages are targeted to landscape lighting, outdoor lighting, outdoor light, garden light, low voltage landscape light fixture, etc.. I have a $300/day ($10K/mo budget) and max bid for #1 position. I have paid close to $10K over the last 6 months to a reputable web agency that is Google Adwords certified and Volusion certified developers. My site is a portal about landscape lighting with learning area, tutorials, shopping and more. No blacklist items lke pron or blackhat SEO. We have a 20,000 sq ft warehouse full of landscape lighting supplies and are very legitmate. But Google says we are not relevant and won't show my ads. Note: my competitors are jsut sales co's who drop ship, don't even mention landscape lighting on their landing page (just lighting). I've been running ad words for 1 month and always had a 1/10--ads not showing. Any experts out there? Please help.
who owned the website before you did? Did you ever run a campaign using that URL before? What hosting IP are you on? Your pages look fine. Even your home page. Your domain must be slapped i did a lookup on archive and see there used to be a blog there... kinda looks spammy too http://web.archive.org/web/20060720211417/http://www.landscapelightingworld.com/
Try this: go to the adwords keyword tool and enter your url for website related keyword suggestions. this way you'll find out, how google sees your site. google should suggest landscape terms in your case. post what google thinks and we'll go from there...
How to find out if the domain name has been blacklisted? I have much the same situation as the thread owner...
I agree, not enough information to really tell why, but if all your KWs have QS of 1 / 10 it sounds as if your domain has been slapped. Have you tried setting up a new ad group and then using a different url (i.e. sub page) rather than the home page?? See if this works. If not, then I'd suggest speaking to you Google Account manager (you should have one of those) and asking if there's something wrong with the domain from Google's POV
From my experience, once you get "slapped", no matter what you do and what changes you make, that domain will be dead in google's eyes. What i would do is pause the campaign., register a new domain and set it up with the same content, and start a new campaign with the same keywords, adgroups, etc. No guarantee this will work, but for me many times it has. chuck
Hmmm, mostly probably the domain has been slapped by Google. I thought it was a very good domain, but alas.
