Hi Edmond, thanks for the question!
This metric can be a bit frustrating as it is based on ad rank, not quality score. While quality score is one of the factors that contributes towards your ad rank, you should also take into consideration the use of ad extensions and bid amount as they also factor into ad rank calculations. I know you've mentioned that your bids are above the top page bid estimate but it could be possible that competitors are outbidding you with potentially higher quality scores and more ad extensions which could explain why your avg position is lower than you'd like and impressions are being lost due to rank.
My suggestion would be to make sure you are using as many ad extensions as possible that are relevant to your business. In addition you can raise your bids. Your quality scores are decent but see if there is any potential to create ad copy/landing pages that receive the 'above average' grade, if there is not much room to improve upon those then maybe consider testing ad copy with the goal of improving your CTR.
Lastly I would recommend diving into your auction insights reports, at various levels (campaign, ad group, keywords) to see how competitors are performing. Once you have an understanding of who is outperforming you can analyze their ad copy and landing pages, SEMrush is a great tool for pulling competitor ad copy!
I hope this is helpful, please let us know how things go!

Can Google shopping listings affect SEO rankings?
Hello everyone. Here is my question: Until 4 weeks ago we used to have just around 2,000 product/pages on Google shopping of our product pages, then we added over 40,000 more items/pages to it, and our Google natural search rankings dropped on most of our long-tail keywords pointing to the same product pages. Do you think that's just coincidence or could the number of products/pages on Google shopping affect natural search results?

How do I get a final summary of how much i spent and how much was the income ? I add tracking code to the 2 main pages,
The page when they leave their information - The quote,

To know each lead that come to our system from where he came from ? Thank you very much for your help !!0 -
Anyone Think AdWords Campaigns Hurt Organic CTRs, Decreasing Organic Rankings?
Hi All, It seems like just about everyone agrees that AdWords campaigns and SEO campaigns bring additional value when used in conjunction (increasing Impressions, Clicks, Conversions, etc.), but has anyone considered AdWords performance harming organic rankings by decreasing engagement metrics? I've been searching for studies, blog posts, investigations, etc. this morning and haven't been able to find anyone discussing this specific idea. Personally, I think decreased engagement for organic results would be relatively evenly distributed among those results, making engagement drops relative and thus nullifying their impact on rankings. Any other ideas out there? Thanks!

Google Analytics Matched Search Query Not Working
On Google analytics for our clients when you check the Matched Search Query under Traffic Sources > Overview, it says "There is no data for this view.". I have Google searched it and i am not finding my answer to why this is not displaying my information. On my personal analytics account when i clicked on matched search query it displays exactly what the person searched when it trigered my adwords ad. I have no idea why this account doesn't display the same info when it appears to be setup in the same way. Example: If i am broad match targeting the keyword "outdoor sports", and someone searched "Canadian outdoor sports for kids" It would show exactly what they searched under Matched Search Query. Anyone know how to resolve this issue?

No paid results for specific search term?
Just doing some research for a potential PPC campaign. For the search terms I'm looking to target, no paid results appear wither above or to the right of the organic SERPs. Does anyone know the reason for this? Search term "Cigar Merchants" Is this because the search term is smoking related? Thanks!
