			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today it came to me so clearly&#8230; The old days of Google Adwords are long, long gone.  Yeah, we all knew that but are we doing anything about it.  It&#8217;s just like anything else where you get stuck in your old ways ya know.</p>
<p>What I&#8217;m talking about is the new Google Adwords Quality Score update.  Don&#8217;t know what that is? <a title="Google Quality Score" href="http://adwords.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&amp;answer=10215" target="_blank">Read about it here.</a></p>
<p>On top of that, I&#8217;m actually afraid to change anything with my Adwords accounts because who knows what keywords will get the boot!</p>
<p>But, don&#8217;t let that scare you.  Don&#8217;t be afraid to re-vamp your old paid search campaigns.  If you want &#8220;Google Love&#8221; then that&#8217;s what you have to do to get it.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-379 aligncenter" title="complaining_about_google" src="http://www.jrfarr.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/complaining_about_google.png" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></p>
<p>I&#8217;ll admit, I was one of those peeps.  I was one of those complainers.  &#8220;This new Google Qualtiy Score update is awful, what were they thinking?&#8221;  Yeah, it does have a few bugs in it, but it&#8217;s time stop complaining and it&#8217;s time to do something about it.</p>
<p>At least that&#8217;s what I have been doing over the past few months.  One thing that has helped me is creating an idea of what it is I&#8217;m actually doing to help the quality score.  I like to call it, having &#8220;tight&#8221; campaigns and ad groups.  Gone are the days of 2,000 keywords in an ad group.  10-15 keywords in an group is where we have landed. Bringing more and more relevacny to your campaigns, ad groups, keywords and of course your ad copy.</p>
<p>I know everyone and their dog has talked about how to help quality score, but try not to get tangled up in the B.S. and stick to a simple plan.  Keep your campagins tight and you&#8217;ll be good.  Just remember, if your not exceeeding the amount of campaigns and ad groups in your accounts, then you&#8217;re not doing enough.</p>
<p>Best of luck and hope that helps you on your paid search journey!</p>
<p>More to come&#8230;</p>
