Souvenez-vous en début août Google avait bougé ses annonces Adwords plus près des résultats naturels pour quelques tests. Nous avons aujourd’hui la confirmation que ces tests ont été concluant via Jonathan Rosenberg lors de la conférence de Google sur ses revenus du 3ème trimestre :

How much of your sequential growth was driven by Ad Auality improvement?
Jonathan Rosenberg
Again, we don’t tend to break that out. We had a very good quarter from Ad Quality’s perspective. I can tell you the significant things that we did. The biggest things, probably in order, or close to order, were the UI tweaks that we did for results pages. We changed the maximum width, decreasing the spacing between the search results and the right hand side ads on wide screen. With that it increased the click-through rate on the right hand side ads and I think we did that some time around the second week in August.
We also had some significant ad improvements like site links that basically allow additional links to categorize and deeper advertisers of a site, which you can see if you run a query on something like Chevy, you’ll see the Silverado, the Malibu, you will see more information there, which increased click-through rates.
We also did some more work on showing more goods at good ads and expanded match. But we don’t give a specific sense of exactly the percentage that that resulted in. The more significant of the changes occurred in mid-August.
Jonathan Rosenberg nous dit ici que les plus gros changements concernant la qualité des publicités ont été les modifications de la position des annonces Adwords dans les pages de résultats. Il ajoute en effet qu’ils ont changé la largeur maximum de la page, réduisant de ce fait l’écart entre les annonces Adwords et les résultats naturels. Il en résulta donc l’augmentation du taux de clic sur ces annonces.
Reste à connaitre les retours financiers de cette amélioration du CTR, sachant que Google tire une grosse partie de ses revenus grâce à ces annonces.
