What a PPC audit actually finds

Most accounts have money leaking. Keyword mismatches, bad quality scores, untracked conversions, duplicate creatives, ignored search terms. You might feel like something’s off, but you don’t know what.

A good audit traces the leaks. I dive into your account setup, match your strategy to your actual business, and surface the gaps. Then you decide what to do.

I’ve been doing this for 12 years — £2M+ managed directly — and audits are where I see the problem most clearly before anything else.

What I audit

The audit process

  1. Access and reviewYou give me read access to your Google Ads account. I spend 4–6 hours reviewing structure, performance, and data.
  2. Analysis and findingsI identify the gaps, quantify the impact, and prioritise fixes by ROI.
  3. Report and callYou get a written report with findings, a recorded walkthrough, and a call to discuss next steps.

Fixed scope, no obligation

An audit is a one-off diagnostic. You get findings and a report. If you want to act on them and hire me, I’ll quote that separately. If you want to fix them yourself or take it elsewhere, that’s fine — the audit stands alone.

When to audit your account

Audit if: you’ve been running ads for 6+ months and haven’t reviewed structure; your ROAS has dropped and you can’t figure out why; you hired someone new and want to validate their strategy; or you’re thinking about scaling spend but want to de-risk it first.

I’m based in the UK and have audited accounts in Filton, Gwent, Bristol, and across the region. Remote means I can work with anyone.

Frequently asked questions

How long does an audit take?

The analysis takes me 4–6 hours. You’ll have findings and a written report within 5 business days.

What if you find nothing wrong?

That happens too. I’m honest enough to say your account is healthy, or that the problem isn’t in Google Ads — it’s elsewhere (landing page, product, messaging).

Do I have to hire you after the audit?

No. The audit is standalone. You’ll get actionable findings and a quote for any follow-up work. No obligation.

What format is the report?

Written PDF with findings, screenshots, and priority actions. I’ll also do a recorded walkthrough and offer a call to discuss.

Can you audit my Google Analytics setup at the same time?

I can flag tracking issues in Google Ads, but deep GA audits are outside my scope. I focus on the ads platform.

How much does an audit cost?

Cost varies by account size and complexity. Get a custom quote by requesting an audit below.
