The AdWords team brings its Ad Innovations to Search Engine Strategies New York

It’s that time of year again - the AdWords team is making its annual pilgrimage to New York for Search Engine Strategies. If you’re planning on attending the conference, we’d love you to stop by and meet the team. We’ll have senior AdWords and DoubleClick executives presenting our newest ad innovations as well as a booth full of knowledgeable Google staffers to answer your questions.

Here are a few Google sessions to put on your SES agenda (for the full Google schedule, refer to the SES website):

Ads in a Quality Score World (Panel)
Wednesday, March 23 3:45-4:45pm

More and more, ranking well in paid search listings is less and less about how much you pay and more about the "quality" of your ad campaign. But what goes into making up your quality score? In this panel, we'll take a closer look at quality factors and give tips on increasing the perceived relevancy of your campaigns.
Speaker:

• Frederick Vallaeys, AdWords Evangelist, Google

We hope to see you in New York. If you can’t make it to SES in person, join in on the fun by exploring our new features on our Ad Innovations site or by keeping up with the AdWords Facebook page and @adwords Twitter account. We’ll be posting ad innovation-related information to these forums frequently over the course of next week.
