Tip of the Iceberg
Let’s Talk CTR
There’s more to an increased click-through rate than just getting more clicks on your ads!
![Page 22: Webinar: Extreme Ad Optimization - Harnessing the Power of Humans & Machines](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050614/5a6da52b7f8b9af8418b5e69/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
CTR and Quality
“ There are three components to quality and the biggestone by far is click-through rate! ”
- Hal VarianChief Economist, Google

Factors in Computing Quality Score
![Page 24: Webinar: Extreme Ad Optimization - Harnessing the Power of Humans & Machines](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050614/5a6da52b7f8b9af8418b5e69/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Why is Quality Score Important?
