This might be a long shot… but if Google instant increases the number of impressions on my Adwords ads (and potentially lowering my clicks), does that mean my quality score could drop?

That’s the only solution whenever Google brings any new changes…Wait and Watch…

Don’t panic…be calm…& let the dust settle down. Everything will be back soon. Thanks for such simple yet very informative posts.

God Speed!

Nice post Sarah.

I am not sure if the clients need to informed at this time to be honest. Because we don’t know if the traffic will actually go down or not. There is a possibility of it going down through keywords, but there is also a possibility the traffic might go up through brand search. I hope this makes sense.

Anticipation would be to see if people will complete what they are looking for before clicking on the listing, to see if it does effect the website’s which are ranking outside top 3.

LOL good strategy, ive flagged the date in analytics but like you suggest will lay off it until the buzz dies down for a real reading.

Im concious that Suggest formats text properly i.e. women’s not womens and wonder how this will effect in the long term

Its annoying that google is polarising searches which can only serve to drive up their PPC revenue :/

Probably the best post Ive read so far today on the changes, out of the 173 that Ive seen!

My takeaway, STOP reading any more of them, go get a coffee. chill out.
