Store Account Level Quality Score in a Google Spreadsheet

EDIT 2013-04-22: Check out an updated version of this script that stores Account, Campaign, and AdGroup level quality score.

EDIT 2013-03-18: I added DESC to the .orderBy() clause so that it orders the impressions from highest to least.

I was reading a post on SearchEngineLand.com the other day about storing and analyzing your account level quality score.

The Author of the article provided a script, but I figured I could come up with my own version pretty easily.  In the following script, I am using the same logic to calculate the account level quality score but I am looking at all campaigns and all keywords with an impression in the last 30 days.

Depending on your account size, this might be too much data to analyze in the 30 minute limit imposed by AdWords, but ordering by impressions should get you the top 50000 (again, another AdWords limit) keywords with impressions.

You can find the spreadsheet I am storing data in here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aotb6eheEOpodGNKMW1UWkZKekc5NWxkR3Zra3lzWVE

Your best bet is to copy that sheet, erase my data (except the headers) and copy the new spreadsheet url into the script. If you have multiple accounts that this will run in, you can store the data in the same spreadsheet but add additional tabs for the account name. Then update the ACCOUNT_NAME variable and you should be all set.

Thanks,
Russ
