The definition

Google's 1–10 rating of how relevant your keyword, ad, and landing page are to each other. Higher scores earn cheaper clicks and better positions.

Why it matters to an owner

It's Google paying you a discount for being relevant. Tight ad-to-page match can cut your CPC while competitors overpay.

This is the work. Want it done?

Everything here is free to use yourself — that’s the point. If you’d rather a senior marketer just handle it, in your accounts and your name: 20-minute call, no pitch deck.
