Where is the quality score?

    Hello,

    I watched the adwords tutorials and in the video there was the quality score shown.

    But if I look into my account - I can't see the QS. Is it disabled? Gone?


    Thx

    You won't find an exact figure for any quality scores in your account - however at the keyword level you can choose to show the 'Quality Score' column which will give you some indication of what the quality score is for each keyword.

    It's hidden by default when looking at your the keywords in your account. There's a little drop down box that allows you to alter the columns shown, click on that and you'll quality score near the bottom.

    Does a quality score of "poor" mean that the ad will show up less often? Or does it just mean you must bid more for that click?

    @ecbo - just means you have to pay more

    @kai Zen - Position has nothing to do with QS

    Yep, a poor quality score means that you will often have to make a higher bid to "activate" your keyword campaign - sometimes this bid is $5 to as high as $20

    Poor quality score means that adwords doesnt think your keywords/ads/and landing pages are targetted enough.
