# Google Ads Audit for Rayleigh Businesses

A forensic review of your Google Ads account. We'll identify what's costing money, what's broken, and exactly what to fix — no obligation to hire further.

## You're spending money. But is it working?

Google Ads looks simple from the outside. But inside most accounts there are half-written stories: keywords bidding against each other, landing page links pointing to the wrong pages, conversion tracking that isn't actually tracking, budget bleeding into low-intent searches.

You don't know until someone looks. An audit is that look — a forensic review of your account to show exactly where the waste is.

## What a PPC audit covers

- **Keyword structure** — are keywords overlapping? Are you bidding on the wrong match types?
- **Bid and budget allocation** — where's your money going? Are high-performers underfunded?
- **Conversion tracking** — is Google actually seeing your conversions? (Most accounts say yes but don't.)
- **Landing page experience** — do your ads link to the right pages? Are those pages optimised?
- **Ad copy and extensions** — are you saying the right thing? Are you using the tools Google gives you?

### What you'll get

> A written audit report with findings ranked by impact. Here's what's broken. Here's how to fix it. Here's what to do first. And an honest assessment: is your account salvageable with fixes, or does it need a rebuild?

## Why a proper audit matters for Rayleigh and Essex

Google Ads CPCs in Essex are high — you're in the London commuter belt competing with the noise. Every wasted pound hurts more. An audit costs a few hundred quid but could reveal thousands in avoidable spend, or spot quick wins (like a keyword fix) that immediately improve ROAS. In Rayleigh's competitive market, that's worth knowing.

## How an audit works

1. **You grant access** — You'll give me read-only access to your Google Ads account. I don't touch anything — just look.
2. **I dig into the data** — I'll spend 3–5 hours reviewing structure, performance, tracking, and spend patterns. I'll check Google Merchant Center (if ecommerce), conversion tags, and landing pages.
3. **You get the report** — I'll write up findings with clear, actionable recommendations. We can hop on a call to walk through it if you want.

## Frequently asked questions

### How much does an audit cost?

Audits vary by complexity. I'll give you a tailored quote on a call after you describe your account size and current setup.

### What if I don't like the findings?

That's fine. The audit is yours to action however you want — or not at all. No obligation to hire me for ongoing work.

### Can you audit an agency's work on my behalf?

Yes. If you're with an agency and want a second opinion, I can review their account strategy and tell you honestly if they're doing right by you.

### How long does an audit take to get?

Typically 2–3 weeks from kickoff to report, depending on my calendar. Urgent audits can be faster — just ask.

### Are you local to Rayleigh and Essex?

I'm UK-wide and remote. I specialise in ecommerce and home services accounts, which covers most of what's running in Rayleigh.

### What if you find huge problems?

I'll be honest. If the account needs a rebuild, I'll say so and explain what that looks like. If it's fixable with some focused work, I'll prioritise those changes in the report.
