Impression share data is available for campaigns, ad groups, product groups (for Shopping campaigns), and keywords. Impression share = impressions / total eligible impressionsĮligible impressions are estimated using many factors, including targeting settings, approval statuses, and quality. Impression share (IS) is the percentage of impressions that your ads receive compared to the total number of impressions that your ads could get. Always improve your quality first before increasing budget or increasing bids.Two impression metrics track how prominent your ads are: impression share (IS) and absolute top impression share (ATIS). Once you have a good-to-great QS, I suggest 7 or more, then I would increase the budget to cover the loss due to it, provided you are profitable. It just means that when you DO show ads, they are most often at the top of the page. You can have a low share with a high top percentage. To improve QS, you need your creatives to incite searchers to click on ads more often.Īs for the percentage your ads appear at the top, whether that's the top of the page or the absolute top (first position), this has nothing to do with your share. It's how you compare to competitors, that's what QS tells you, so don't look at your own CTR which is without context on its own. Your actual CTR and if you think it's good is irrelevant. You say expected CTR is below average so my guess is your QS is 5, maybe 6 at the most. Improving your QS will indeed help in getting a higher impression share and reduce lost due to ranking. You can raise your bids profitably by 1) increasing your conversion rate, 2) increasing your profit margin, or 3) increase your average order value. If you want to shrink the lost imp share number then you’ll need to raise your bids. As long as you don’t pay more than $1 per click and you maintain that 2% conversion rate you’re profitable. If you’re willing to pay $50 for an order and your keyword has a 2% conversion rate you should set your bid so your CPC is $50*0.02=$1. CPC should equal Conversion Rate multiplied by the CPA you’re willing to pay (which should be based on that keyword’s or campaign’s average order value multiplied by profit margin). If you’re seeing 10,000 impressions a month and you have 20% lost impression share then with unlimited bids and budgets you could potentially see 12,500 impressions.īut other than knowing the total opportunity what are you going to do with that? Are you willing to be unprofitable, and lose money on every sale, so that the lost imp share number is smaller? I hope not. Actual impressions divided by impression share = total possible impressions (with unlimited bids and budget). The right way to look at impression share is as the “cap” of what’s possible with unlimited bids and budgets. I'm hoping to max out the performance on google ads before expanding to other paid advertising - but if this isn't the case let me know what might be a better metric to look at. Note: my understanding is that search impression share shows whether you have space to improve your campaign performance. The expected click-through rate is below average, although my actual click-through is quite good 7-10%.ĭo you have any suggestions on how I can improve this? When I look at the impression share lost to rank, Google says this is a result of the quality score for my keywords but all my keywords quality score factors are rated average or above average with the exception of my expected click-through rate. So first, I'm looking to improve on the impression share lost due to rank, but when I look at my ads they're all rated excellent with impr. Right now, the campaign search impression share is 17% (42% lost due to rank and 39% lost due to budget). I'm working on a search campaign for my local business and trying to improve the search impression share.
