In this episode, Chris and Jason break down 5 data columns in Google Ads that they consider underused or get asked about frequently.

(5:33) News - Facebook shares plunge more than 20%

(9:30) Optimization score

Optimization score is an estimate of how well your Google Ads account is set to perform and is able to determine your campaign's goal through your bid strategy. 

(17:54) Relative CTR

Relative CTR measures how your ads perform on Display Network sites compared to other ads on the same sites. 

(28:45) Conversion Value/Cost

Conversion value per cost estimates your return on investment. It's calculated by dividing your total conversion value by the total cost of all ad interactions. 

(32:53) View-through conversions

View-through conversions tell you when customers see, but don't interact with your ad, but then later complete a conversion on your site. 

(42:39) Active Bid Adjustment (at the ad group level)

Bid adjustments allow you to show your ads more or less frequently based on where, when, and how people search. We need your help! Please help us grow the show:
