Landing Page Experience

Hey dburk,

I can do better.

Understanding landing page experience

Landing page experience refers to how good we think someone's experience will be when they get to your landing page (the web page they end up on after clicking your ad). You can improve your landing page experience by:

-providing relevant, useful, and original content,
-promoting transparency and fostering trustworthiness on your site (for example, by explaining your products or services before asking visitors to fill out forms sharing their own information),
-making it easy for customers to navigate your site (including on mobile sites), and
-encouraging customers to spend time on your site (for example, by making sure your page loads quickly so people who click your ad don’t give up and leave your site prematurely).
-Your landing page experience affects not only your Quality Score, but also your Ad Rank and advertising costs.

Why landing page experience matters

Landing pages are kind of like cars – make sure they're tuned-up properly, and you'll likely get better performance and savings out of them down the road. Get more mileage out of your landing page by making it easier for visitors to make a purchase, sign up for a newsletter, or do other things you want them to do on your website.

Improving your landing page experience

We use a combination of automated systems and human evaluation to determine landing page experience on your site. Your ads may show less often (or not at all) if they point to websites that offer a poor user experience. If you're trying to improve your landing page experience, it might be time to give your landing pages a tune-up. Try reviewing the general guidelines below to help you think of ways to improve your landing page experience and get better performance out of your landing pages down the road.

Relevant, useful and original content
-Make sure your landing page is directly relevant to your ad text and keyword.
-Provide useful information on your landing page about whatever you're advertising.
-Try to offer useful features or content that are unique to your site.
Transparency and trustworthiness
-Make it easy for visitors to find your contact information.
-If you request personal information from customers, make it clear why you’re asking for it and what you’ll do with it.
-Distinguish sponsored links, like ads, from the rest of your site content.
-Openly share information about your business and clearly state what your business does.
Ease of navigation
-Don't make people hunt around for the information they might need.
-Make it quick and easy for people to order the product mentioned in your ad.
-Don’t annoy customers with pop-ups or other features that interfere with their navigation on your site.
-Make sure people can easily find information to learn more about the advertised product.
-The AdWords system visits and evaluates landing pages on a regular basis. If you've made significant changes to improve your landing page experience, it could lead to higher ad quality (and higher Ad Rank) over time. You might not see an immediate impact, but you may see results within days or weeks.

Your landing page loading time

If it takes too long for your website to load when someone clicks on your ad, they're more likely to give up and leave your website. This unwelcome behavior can signal to Google that your landing page experience is poor, which could negatively impact your Ad Rank. That's why you want to make sure your landing page load time is up to speed.

Here are a few tips to help improve your load time:
-Make sure your landing page loads quickly once someone clicks on your ad, whether on a desktop or mobile device.
-Help customers quickly find what they’re looking for by prioritizing the content that’s visible above-the-fold.
-Learn how you or your webmaster can use PageSpeed Insights to measure the performance of your landing page.
-Excluding your landing pages from review
-Mobile visits to your landing page
-Viewing your website's landing page experience

You can view an estimate of the landing page experience for any of your destination sites by going into your Keywords tab and placing your cursor over the speech bubble next to the status of any keyword. The landing page experience could be:

Above average or Average: If you see either of these two statuses, you're in good shape – your Quality Score won't be negatively affected by your landing page experience.
Below average: This means that your landing page experience may be in need of improvement, and your Quality Score might be lower as a result. You might want to consider some changes to improve your website's landing page, using the factors discussed in this article as your guide.
Landing page experience vs. Site policies

When we review landing pages, we sometimes come across pages that don't follow our Advertising Policies. For example, if your landing page happens to contain malware (like a virus), that's a pretty bad landing page. Rather than giving you a "Below average" landing page experience status, you won't get a score at all. Instead, you'll see "Not applicable" as your landing page experience status, and any keywords or ads pointing to that website will get a "Site suspended" status. This status means that your website can't be advertised with AdWords because it doesn't follow one or more of our site policies.

Site policies refer to the Advertising Policies that must be followed on your landing pages and website in order to advertise on AdWords. If your landing page or website contains something that we don't allow, like malware or illegal products, we might suspend your website to protect our customers. When a website is suspended, that means you won't be able to advertise that suspended website until all policy violations have been resolved.
