What might cause this?

Keyword tool problem...

So, my quality score has been all over the place.

I entered my site into Google's keyword suggestion tool to see what they are showing as suggested keywords for my site. I'm told there is not enough text on the page to generate keywords. This occurs even when I check the box to include other links on the page.

This page has over 3000 words on it and is linked to my sitemap, privacy policy, navigation, etc.

Now, if I enter any other page on my site (even one with no text, just a link to my sitemap) I get the desired keywords...but not this page.

I validated my HTML to make sure there was nothing strange going on, there is no script or anything on the page I could see interfering with the adbot.

I feel this is affecting my quality score- if their keyword suggestion tool can't read my page I assume the quality bot also has trouble with it.

What might be causing this?

OK, the obvious first:

Is your content framed?
Is it indexed in the normal index?
Is this a specific landing page for PPC?
What happens to your QS if you set the destination URL to another page on your site?

Nothing changes when I set another page, but this is an already in progress campaign so it may take days at least for the adbot to come back around and check "quality" again. This page has the sales copy so it's the page I need to advertise...

Try copying the page (With sales copy) to a new page/URL

ie:
from yourdomain.com/landingpage
to yourdomain.com/landing-page

See if QS updates for the new page.
