		<description><![CDATA[Regarding CTR and QScore, we have an Ad Group for our brand terms, and it has great click through rates, from 5% to 25%, and great QScores, from 7-10.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Within that group, however, one keyword is a misspelling of our brand.  It gets a *huge* number of impressions, because the misspelling is the name of a famous running shoe.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;While we get lots of impressions, the CTR is very low, because most people who type that word are looking for running shoes, not us.  QScore is 3.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Nevertheless, bidding on this &quot;running shoe&quot; keyword produces good ROI for us, because even though few people click that ad, the ones who do were really looking for us and just misspelled our brand.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Should I move that keyword to it&#039;s own Ad Group?  Does the low CTR and low QScore for that keyword drag down the Quality Score for the entire Ad Group?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thannks!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thanks!]]></description>
