Google Search & Google Adverts Do Not Assure Clicks Lead To Conversions

Google’s John Mueller and Ginny Marvin said that both on the organic search side and paid search ad side, Google does not guarantee clicks will lead to conversions.

This was a Twitter thread where John said on the organic side, “Nobody can guarantee you conversions.” I guess not even Google…

Then Ginny said on the ad side “Smart Bidding takes many signals into account to bid based on the predicted conversion opportunity, but every click won’t convert & looking at one click is usually not informative.”

Here are those tweets:

Smart Bidding takes many signals into account to bid based on the predicted conversion opportunity, but every click won’t convert & looking at one click is usually not informative. This guide has good info: https://t.co/HOUVFakUn1
