Ads Audit
Google Ads health monitoring · Evidence-based

Know what to do tomorrow morning.
Before you open Google Ads.

Ads Audit doesn’t generate another report. It gives your account a Google Ads Health Score, tracks it over time, and tells you what to do next — with confidence and evidence from your own data.

Ads Audit never modifies your campaigns. No changes are made to your Google Ads account.

Why this first

Two conversion actions record the same purchase event — the Google Ads tag and the GA4 import — and both are marked as primary. Every transaction is counted twice, so Smart Bidding sees roughly 1.9× the real value and bids up where it should not. Reported ROAS will drop from 4.14 to 2.18 once the duplicate is removed; that is the end of the inflation, not a drop in performance.

Google Ads Health Score

One score for your account. Tracked over time.

Your Health Score isn’t a pass/fail checklist. The Ads Audit Engine weighs every category together and turns your account into one explainable number, 0–100 — built from the same category breakdown you can drill into below. Re-check whenever you like and Ads Audit keeps the record — so “is this account healthy” has an answer that updates, not one you got the day you connected.

Today, Ads Audit reliably computes your overall Health Score and category scores on every re-check, and lets you browse your full score history. Category scores tracked over time, and the automatic new/resolved/regression counts shown above, are on our roadmap.

How it works

Connect, run, review, act

01

Connect Google Ads

Secure OAuth. Ads Audit only ever reads your data — its code contains no path that changes a campaign.

02

Establish account health

The Ads Audit Engine evaluates your account holistically and sets your baseline Health Score, overall and by category.

03

Prioritize what to fix

Findings are ranked by severity and measured impact, so the first row is the first job.

04

Re-check and track the trend

Run the audit again after you make changes. Every run is saved, so you can see whether the account is improving.

Not another report

A decision queue, not a dashboard

A report tells you what happened. Ads Audit reads the same data and returns the work in the order it should be done — each row ranked by severity and measured impact.

Every recommendation has to earn your trust

No black-box recommendation. Each finding carries the signal that triggered it, the value measured on your account, and the threshold it crossed.

What Ads Audit monitors

The categories behind your Health Score

Every category below feeds directly into the category and overall scores above. Coverage grows over time — this list reflects what the engine evaluates today, not a roadmap.

Search

Search terms with cost and no conversions, keyword-level waste.

Conversion tracking

Duplicate or missing primary conversion actions, offline import gaps.

Budget allocation

Budget concentrated in underperforming campaigns, spend with zero conversions.

Performance Max

Performance Max asset groups missing the recommended minimum assets.

Account hygiene

Campaigns and ad groups missing basic setup — paused-with-budget, empty groups.

Ads & assets

Ad groups running a single ad variant with nothing to test against.

Continuous monitoring, without giving up control

Your campaigns stay under your control

Ads Audit is built to be re-run, not run once — check as often as you like and every run is kept. It connects to Google Ads through OAuth and reads account data — campaigns, ad groups, keywords, search terms, budgets, conversions. Its own code contains no function that writes anything back: it never asks for your Google password, and it never changes a bid, a budget or a campaign setting.

  • OAuth connection — Google, not us, handles authentication
  • Only ever reads Google Ads data — no code path writes to it
  • No automated campaign changes
  • No Google password ever collected or stored
  • Disconnect the connection at any time

Ads Audit is operated by PPCWAY. Ads Audit is an independent third-party tool from PPCWAY. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Google. Google Ads and Google are trademarks of Google LLC. What we do with the data we read is described in our Privacy Policy, including our commitment to the Google API Services User Data Policy and its Limited Use requirements.
