I'm seeing another weird problem in a campaign I just started tonight. The keywords in the campaign have a "Great - Minimum bid: $0.04" quality score and my bid is $0.45 so the keywords are listed as Active...but they're not being displayed for this apparent reason: "We're unable to show your ad because your Quality Score and CPC are too low for this keyword auction." Doesn't make sense. I'll see what the Google folks have to say about that...
Just to follow up, the keyword i was talking about at the start of the thread now has a "great" quality score
Well I'm pretty happy so far - 15 clients, 1000+ AdGroups, 10,000's of keywords, and looking through them all I'm seeing 90% 'Great', ~10% 'Ok' and only 2 'Poor' which were promptly deleted.
Exactly what is expected by clients, I guess. Oh well... they most often wouldn't even know what that means ... My campaigns went back to normal on Friday, too and today I got another email from Google telling me that the issue has been resolved and this had nothing to do with the Quality Score update coming this week. --- <continued>Oh yes those were the products telling you that affiliates make $20,000 per day etc., right? The truth is, I know how to do just that... just bey my $97 ebook and *you* know too =)</continued>
Hi you will have the Quality Score column you just need to tell Adwords to show it. In your campaign click on the keywords tab, then just above the current bid column, there will be customise columns link click that then select show quality score.
