PLAYBOOK CONTENT
Audit all my keywords across every campaign to find match type issues that are wasting budget or missing opportunities.
- Pull all active keywords from my Google Ads account with their match type, performance metrics, and search term data
- Flag issues:
- Broad match keywords with high spend but low conversion rate (bleeding budget on irrelevant searches)
- Exact match keywords with low impression share (too restrictive, missing volume)
- Duplicate keywords across ad groups with different match types competing against each other
- Keywords with no impressions in the last 30 days (dead weight)
- High-performing search terms that are not covered by any keyword (opportunities)
- For each issue, recommend a fix:
- Switch broad to phrase or exact if search terms are too scattered
- Add high-performing search terms as exact match keywords
- Consolidate duplicates into a single ad group
- Pause keywords with zero impressions
- Create a Google Sheet with the full audit and recommendations
- Email me a summary with the estimated budget savings and opportunity size
- Schedule a monthly audit
