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!

Brand Impressions & Clicks down massively
HI We've seen a huge drop in impressions for brand terms in Adwords. YOY - 37,140 vs. 792. Our impression share is still high. An agency manage this for us and can't seem to find a reason, but the drop is huge - it seems like it's just people not searching but we haven't seen this in organic and the drop is so huge we wondered what else it could be? Paid is fairly new to me, so just doing some fact finding 🙂

We are getting really good results. almost 50% conversion rate, all the keys are in average position of 1.5, the quality score is high (between 6-10),Search Lost IS, is really low. Everything split to group, zip code, cities, for mobile or desktop... basically everything is going really well. BUT as we always want to increased the results and like all if us we have the presser from the client to improve and get more results, i feel that im a bit stuck. What other stuff i can do to improve\extend the campaign ? Any tips are more then welcome!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!

Adwords & Analytics Different Product Listing Results
Hi We have recently set up a Product Listings ad campaign via AdWords and have seen some impressive initial figures in our AdWords account. However, when viewing data from the same period in Analytics it shows completely different statistics. For example, from 1st-16th June, AdWords shows 604 clicks and 29 conversions from our Product Listings campaign but Google Analytics only shows 23 clicks and 0 conversions across the same period. Any ideas why these variations show? Is there any additional tracking code that needs to be inserted at all? Thanks
