Casual Articles - Google's Landing Page Quality Score
As the head of hiring for a nonprofit lobbying organization, I regularly see job candidates missing out on some of the most effective ways to make themselves stand out. Here are some of the things I wish every applicant knew.A cover letter can get you in the door.Too many people use cover letters to simply summarize their r?sum?s. With such limited initial contact, don't squander a page regurgitating the contents of the other pages
Over time, AdWords gave rise to a lot of very effective one-shot sites that had low bids and high conversion rates. These were sites that might have displayed only one page islands. The page may have been a newsletter or whitepaper signup, or something along these lines. These pag
Do you work in or own a business that’s affected by seasonal cycles? Do you live in a community whose population changes significantly during the year (e.g., tourist influx, students returning to college)? Do you ever feel stressed out or frustrated by the seemingly constant changes or the extreme highs and lows of your life or your business?Many people feel that these cyclical changes are just something they have to tolerate. Never mind that your
1. The system still makes judgment errors.
2. Well-performing one-shot sites saw their minimum bids skyrocket.
3. Advertisers playing around with multiple domains sometimes saw their minimum bids go up.
4. Advertisers using the system to quickly make money through dubious means or with quickly setup sites stopped making profits.
Advertisers in the first three categories have solutions to the minimum bid problem. The last set of advertisers does not.
The First Three
The frequency of judgment errors seems about at the same level as it was before, when minimum bids without landing page quality were employed. If one of your minimum bids looks like an error in judgment, call Google and they might fix it. Otherwise employ the usual means of making ad text and landing page copy more relevant to the keyword. All the sites that I advertise that were legitimate sites, employing typical advertising methods, went unaffected by the quality score update. If you fall under this category, you probably shouldn’t be affected by the update.

How many minutes are in a year? My niece, Sarah, and her third grade classmates sang a song from the Broadway show, “Rent.” The song breaks down how many minutes are in a year and asks us how many ways we count a year. It’s catchy. I’ve been humming the song all day, but I don’t remember how many minutes it turned out to be.Measuring is important. Figuring out what to measure is even more important. I just finished speaking about precise communicati

eBay has become the hotspot for people to sell strange items. Over the past few years, where eBay has grown from a virtually unknown web site to the leading online auction marketplace in the world, some very odd items and services have been offered up for auction on the site. Strangely enough, many of these strange items have sold for thousands even tens of thousands dollars. A few of these items have sold for six or seven figures as well. eBay does have a

If you are considering entering a close niche sub-sector industry then you will also hear rumors in the industry, some true and others coming from those who have an axe to grind. It is extremely wise to listen, but not comment. Just say oh really like you are shocked and interested. Then they will tell you more of course. Still try not to judge as you will be listening to only one side of the story.You might hear such things as: I believe the Presid

In this article we are going to see the importance of internet directories. There are only two most important reasons why people submit their website to these directories. First one is to get more keyword specific and targeted traffic and the second one is the link popularity to get better page ranks. Acquiring or taking these links from other similar themed websites will also bring down same results if those websites are giving qualified links, which also
Over time, AdWords gave rise to a lot of very effective one-shot sites that had low bids and high conversion rates. These were sites that might have displayed only one page islands. The page may have been a newsletter or whitepaper signup, or something along these lines. These pages didn’t provide much content, and didn’t establish reputation with the visitor, but nonetheless they often did well. In a sense, these sites employed borderline methods, and Google doesn’t approve of them. In their landing page guidelines, Google recommends providing substantial and unique content, defining your business and what it does, and notifying the visitor how his/her personal information is being treated. Advertisers employing the one-shot method can fix their landing pages up to meet Google’s guidelines if they are legitimate companies.
The final fixable category of users that had trouble with Google’s quality score employed multiple domains. The reason this could be problematic may lie in the requirement for unique content. As in SEO, AdWords advertisers should develop one domain for a set of products or services to avoid problems.
The Advertisers That Are Permanently Affected
The last set of advertisers who have problems with Google’s quality score guidelines is tough out of luck. Being an affiliate that launches a visitor into another site that is already advertising with AdWords is probably going to impact your campaigns. This is a lower quality site in the eyes of Google and probably in the eyes of most users. Also, using AdWords ads to generate revenue with more expensive AdSense ads by capitalizing on click-happy visitors is going to ruin your campaigns.
