Do you use a raw click-through rate to determine the quality index?

No, we do not use a raw click-through rate to determine the quality index because that would unfairly penalize ads displayed in lower positions. Instead, we use a “normalized” click-through rate that factors in the ad’s position, as well as the historical performance of the keyword, to provide a more fair and accurate assessment of an ad’s performance.
