8 replies
Im desprate for some help with good news...:confused:

I started a huge campaign yesterday, after 2 hours most of my Ads had almost no Impr, 1 Ad god like 4000 Imr with no clicks... I immedately stopped her, but...

All my keywords in all my other ad groups went from Great to Poor!!

When I open a new campaign every keyword gets immediately poor QS, and the minimum bid is 40$(and above!).

Now, I cant change the domain, I guess I f**cked its history in 2 hours! So, what can I do???

      Still lost... Might it be that Adwords has the *same* problem we are having?

      Good Job on the change!

      It's been a long time since I used adwords but I used to use it a lot. I don't know why you stopping one ad group would effect your other ad groups at all. I never had that happen to me as far as I know.

      One thing for sure it is hard to tell in two hours what your keywords are actually doing because it takes adwords time to catch-up in actual time sometimes with the stats. I think I would have let it ran longer than two hours and see how it actually did.

      I would test it over a couple of days and keep the good keywords that are getting clicks and get rid of the ones that aren't. Once your click thru rate percentage goes up so will your overall search impressions. Just keep testing.

      When you say your keywords went from great to poor.....are you talking about you had higher percentages and they all changed or are you talking about your impressions versus clicks went lower?

      Hope I stated this right!

        Hmmm... let me try to explain it better(I was so pissed before I just spet it).
        Ok, I created this campaign several days ago. I ran it and saw Impr & clicks. I watched it closely cause it important JV for me.
        After 2 hours(more or less), I saw the my QS in all my keywords dropped from Great to Poor.

        The reason I mentioned is the only 1 I can think about: very low CTR in 1 adgroup that effected the domain. I know it happends.

        Proofs: when I open new adgroup/new campaign for this domain I get automatically Poor QS.

        So, in "normal" cases I would just pause/delete the problematic Ad group, buy a new domain, and restart the campaign with the new domain. But, in this case I cant change the domain, so Ill be so glad if someone would advice me how to restore my QS without changing the domain...

    This thread should be in the PPC discussion forum:


    Adsense / PPC / SEO Discussion Forum


    Having said that... Google will NOT crucify your whole domain because of a low CTR on one single ad group.

    Are you confident that your destination URL/domain is content rich, user friendly and you have constructed a flow of relevant keywords leading to relevant information right through from ads to website?

    The KEY word here being relevant/relevancy.

    Relevancy is a BIG player in cases like this...

    Are you providing a pleasant user experience for the traffic that Google is sending you (or not in this case)?

    Are you actually helping the user get what they want?...

    Anyways...

    Like I said.. this should be in the PPC forum, imho.

    Peace

    Jay

      Thanks Jay, I will paste it there now. I will just say that google will crucify a domain for a bad CTR history and even will hurt an account for bad CTR history. In this case 1 adgroup that got 95% of the Impr and 0.16% CTR hurt the domain, of that Im sure, the only thing I dont know is how to recover it, cause usually I would just change the domain.

      Ok, going to the PPC forum
