Your ad should be relevant enough to match what the searcher is looking for. Match the keywords you are bidding on with your headline and ad copy. Your ad should be able to deliver what it promises.
You can also create multiple ads per campaign or use Google’s Responsive Search Ads feature. Just some tweaks and you will get your desired results.
3. Low-Quality Score
Google determines how your ad should rank and it is known as your Quality Score (QS). You will get fewer clicks on your ad if your quality score is low. Your Quality Score will be provided by Google but you have to put an effort to improve it.
