One-off account review

Google Ads Audit in Sydney

If you're already running Google Ads and suspect the budget isn't working as hard as it should — but you're not ready to commit to a new agency yet — this audit is built for exactly that situation. It's a one-off diagnostic, not a sales pitch for a management contract, and it's free. Some call this a Google Ads account review Sydney businesses book before committing to ongoing management; others search specifically for a PPC audit Sydney agencies can turn around quickly — both describe exactly this service.

Why is my Google Ads account spending money without producing leads?

Three causes show up most often: bidding on broad, low-intent search terms instead of ones that signal real buying intent; conversion tracking that can't distinguish a real lead from a form-fill; or budget spread too thin across campaigns to generate useful data on any of them. The audit identifies which of these, if any, apply to your account specifically.

Are competitors allowed to bid on my business name?

In most cases, yes — Google's trademark policy allows competitors to bid on a business's brand name as a keyword. The audit checks whether that's happening to you and whether defensive bidding makes commercial sense for your account.

Why does Google Ads keep sending low-quality leads?

Google's bid automation optimises toward whatever event it's told counts as a conversion. If that event is too loose — any form submission, rather than a qualified one — the system will keep delivering more of exactly that. The audit checks what your account is actually optimising toward.

What the audit checks

Account structure, conversion tracking accuracy, wasted spend on irrelevant search terms, negative-keyword gaps, brand-name bid overlap from competitors, landing page relevance to the ads running, and Quality Score / ad relevance.

What to send before we start

Read-only access to your Google Ads account is enough to complete the audit. Share your website and target area too, so the findings can be put in context.
