google adwords problem

Has anyone noticed lately the changes made with Google adwords?
Well, before the changes I was able to get a good quality score and therefore get my ads running, but now every keyword I type in I get a low quality score where my ads don't display, I've tried everything but still nothing.
this is what I've been getting:

Rarely shown due to low quality score
Your ad couldn't be shown due to limitted position

Now this is all I keep getting, one minute my score is 7 and sometimes 10, but when I check back within 10 minutes, I get the above descriptions, this is really frustrating.
I don't get this problem with Bing or Yahoo. This post is my last resort.
Any suggestions?
cheers, pierro

  • Apparently my landing page quality score is poor.
    I think I might have to get a professional in to have a look at this, it seems that nobody has got an answer.

  • Well if your in the home biz market or promoting affiliate products your gonna have a tougher time on adwords. What are you selling on adwords? Also you shouldn't be sending any traffic to a landing page with an opt-in form, or buy now button. Google has put an end to that
  • Hi TimScott, thanks for the reply, firstly I don't have any opt-in forms and I don't have any "Buy now" buttons, I simply have clickbank products on my pages and my task is to send the traffic to the vendor, I've updated my content and have added more. When ever I enter in a new keyword, my ads initially appear in the search results at first page position 2-5, then when I check back in about 10 minutes time, WAM! I get the "ads not showing thingy". I don't know what's happenning, thanks anyway for your input. Cheers, pierro

    • Google has been taking a strong stance against any affiliate marketers recently advertising on AdWords. Many are getting the infamous "slap" or are struggling like you to maintain good quality scores. The system could've spidered your landing page and noticed that you have links directly to the parent company or just in general a poor landing page, according to their quality score guidelines. The landing page and your entire website need to portray transparency, relevancy, and navigability. This is very hard for affiliates to do now a days without losing too much of a conversion percentage, but is necessary if you want to stand a chance with google. They're essentially weeding out affiliates because they don't see it as a sustainable model in the long run.
      So, in stead of facing this uphill battle, why not direct all of this money you're spending on Google and push it more toward Yahoo & MSN. They don't haven't nearly the strict policies and are cheap. What are your quality scores on Google anyways?
