There are a ton of irrelevant pages in the PPC listings. At least this is true in the arena we play in. I'm encouraged by anything Google does to remove the junk in their listings. It definitely makes a better experience for everyone except the people who are having ads removed. Thank you Google. There are a ton of irrelevant pages in the PPC listings.

People will like to consume their daily budget so I see bid prices going higher. Those who interpreted it as lessening revenue, have missed the fact that it is an auction. Google has improved the click quality, so ppl., should not mind paying higher for individual clicks.

But, then my CTR has gone crazy. I usually had a very decent Daily CTR around 9-12% (I´m in a very small and specific niche), but after Google changed the Clickable area, I´m having some good CTR days and some other poor CTR days. Julie, can you share any tips to increase CTR (AdWords writing tips) or any other tip that may help me to stabilize my daily ctr´s. Saludos.
