vain when things don’t work. But at your end, you need to analyze why is it

intersection of the relevancy of keywords used in ad copy, landing page, the
behavior of visitors. You can even outrank those who bid high for keywords by
maintaining your quality score.

deadly combination can dilute your work. It’s better to hire to write
high-quality ad copies.

relevancy of your Ad is reflected in the landing page if visitors don’t
find it right, bounce backs are bound to happen.

Landing Page optimization-
Call and ask any Google AdWords consultant, tell your story, one of the advice you would
receive is optimization in the landing page.
Whatever users perceive
through your ad; they search for it on the landing page. Let’s say you sell
lemon seeds but your landing page has no mention of seeds when users click on
it. This situation is really annoying for anyone.
Build a link-
Once users are convinced
to fall into the marketing funnel, no one can stop you to get a higher quality
score, even if it is signup and no purchase.
The biggest contributor
to building links are keywords. Use the same set of keywords you use in your ad
and landing page. The content on the landing page must have those keywords
repeated multiple times. When user will encounter those set of keywords several
times, they will start finding their way in your brand.
Final words
The quality score is
nothing less than a panacea in improving your marketing life. Do give it a try.
