    Is anyone else experiencing strange qs issues....i have had a campaign running (both search and content) for over 6 months with no problems. Not many keywords, broken out into applicable adgroups and all of which were at a 10/10 quality score.

    I logged in this morning and seen a keyword drop to 1/10 with the rest of them following throughout the day.

    Lp is relevant...all links in place (privacy, terms, etc). Keywords all relevant going to a different page for each keyword promoting that particular keyword.

    oh...google now saying page is not relevant after a ctr in the high 20's, and a 10/10 quality score for 6+months

    will keep you posted if anything changes

    thanks

    I think it is the problem with your landing page. You might change something with the header or content?

    Have all of the keywords associated with the same domain gone to 1/10?

    If so, you may have been visited by a human Googler who slapped a manual penalty on your site (for too many ads, not enough content, it was a cloudy day, etc). If all of the QS stay at 1/10, you may have to move the site to a different domain.

    google is really terrible to handle man. You have every possible hurdle on your way. like click fraud, content reporting, your website may go down on rank anytime. there is no guarantee that it will persist there at good rank always. There are even people whom I read on some blackhat forums who get the website blacklisted. I do not know how but they can. It is really inhuman. People can even down the website of the competitors now. what to say ? Google is not really doing anything about it. I think its a long way, before google going down for these types of issues, google should really give it a thought and make the search engine really advertiser friendly, it is the need of the time. Otherwise google itself may lose its reputation in the longrun. There are already many options coming up, people are already tired with this search engine.
