The best place for your ads to appear is among the slots at the top of the page. But you can’t guarantee a top spot just by making the highest bid. Your ads must also have a high ‘quality score’ – and that’s influenced by the number of people who click on your ad, and what they do as a result. Here’s how to build your quality score.
When a potential customer does a search on Google, they want to see only ads that are relevant to their search. And if your business shows an irrelevant ad, you irritate the customer and you lose the sale – even worse if they click, you have to pay with no chance of making the sale! The answer is to learn the simple hack of relevance!

UberSuggest is a great free tool for going even deeper with your keyword research. Not only will it help you find more AdGroup themes, but it’s also great for finding important negative keywords. Here’s how to use it.
To write profitable ads you’ve first got to understand the rules that Google imposes. And second, you’ve got to be creative within those rules. Ian’s handy ad copy formula makes sure you do both and get perfect results every time.
