"Quality score plays a major impact on AdWords account performance, yet the full picture on quality score has always been clouded in a degree of mystery. Craig has lifted the veil off AdWords quality score and provided a comprehensive guide to help us understand the why, how, when, and if, questions we ask ourselves daily. This book covers it all, and after reading it I feel an increased level of confidence in successfully managing my client's accounts."
