Default Optimising Image Ads

Hi all,


In recent months I have been experimenting with iamge ads on the content network.

It's proving to be quite successful, but I do wonder how they decide on the relevancy of an image ad against your chosen keywords or placement site?

I notice that my image ads get served up in very different amounts even though I have the rotate ads evenly selection.

I have one ad that is getting upto 50% of the impressions. Interestingly it is also the one that also gets a much higher CTR.

All of the ads in that ad group are targeted onto one site. They are all exactly the same type of image ad (ie: 728 x 90 px). They all point to the same landing page.

For some reason Google has decided that some ads are more relevant to the site I am targeting than the others and it is therefore giving more impressions to that ad.

I'm assuming it's basing this on CTR history.

The only other idea I have is that they are using the name that you give to your image ad (sneaky of them).

Anyone got any views?

Thanks
Mike
