Is Google playing with YouTube?
Wed 13 May 2009 11:00, Jaap Jacobs
We all know that Google is suffering with YouTube. Google should take action in order to make YouTube as successful as other Google products. The last weeks I noticed that the results within Google’s search partner network swings with extraordinary figures. Is there any connection?
The last
weeks Google’s search partner network resulted within a triple amount of views,
while Google’s search seems to be stable. The click trough ratio and amount of
visitors on its search partners however stays behind, but a decrease within
views in certain area’s happens as well.
Example
Google Adwords campaign (1 – 7 april)
Example
Google Adwords same campaign (1 – 7 may)
It is hard
to have a good explanation for these figures. Google started to publish Adwords
ads on YouTube. Maybe it has been published with under Google’s search
partners? I have asked the Google’s Adwords team, but they didn’t had an answer
on its fluctuating figures. What do you as search experts think would be the
cause?

any chance you could make the images link through to a bigger version, can't quite make some of the details out.
My guess would be that ppl on Youtube are not fussed about ads, or perhaps the Adsense listings have some crazy ads in it on YouTube making nobody click!

Als ik op youtube zoek op zoekwoorden van klanten zie ik inderdaad de advertenties terugkomen.

If I search on youtube, I do see indeed our advertisements, while the content network has been switched off and the search partners have been on.

Hi all,
Do you also see a huge drop in av. position (together with the increase in impressions)? I had contact with Google and they told me it was a bug which should be solved right now...
