For the numbers behind the answers, see our [PPC case studies](https://cleandigital.co.uk/case-studies) and [free PPC tools](https://cleandigital.co.uk/resources). ### What does a free Google Ads audit actually check? A senior specialist reviews the things that decide whether Google Ads spend pays back: conversion tracking and the values behind it, brand versus non-brand split, search terms and match types, negative keyword lists, Performance Max and brand-search overlap, Shopping feed quality, bidding strategy, audiences and budget pacing. You get the specific findings for your account, not a generic checklist. [See how we manage paid search](https://cleandigital.co.uk/paid-search) ### Is this a PPC audit or only a Google Ads audit? Google Ads is the usual starting point because Search, Shopping and Performance Max are where most urgent waste appears. If Microsoft Ads, paid social or another channel affects the same budget decision, the review covers that context too so the recommendation does not treat one platform in isolation. [Google Ads management](https://cleandigital.co.uk/google-ads-agency) ### Which ad platforms do you audit? Google Ads is the most common, including Search, Shopping and Performance Max. We also audit Microsoft Ads, Meta and Amazon accounts. If you run several platforms, the audit looks at how they read together rather than as separate channel reports. [Microsoft Ads management](https://cleandigital.co.uk/microsoft-ads-management) ### Do you need access to my account? Read-only access is enough, and you can remove it the moment the audit is done. If you would rather not grant access yet, a senior specialist can still review what is visible from your website and ads and tell you whether a deeper look is worth it. ### Will you change anything in my account? No. The audit is a diagnostic, not a takeover. We identify what is costing you money and what to fix first, and it is your decision whether you act on it, hand it to your current team, or ask us to. ### Is it really free, and what is the catch? It is free and there is no obligation. We audit accounts to prove the work is worth it before any conversation about management, and you keep the findings either way. Some accounts read the report and fix things themselves, which is a fair outcome. ### Who carries out the audit? A senior PPC specialist at Clean Digital, an employee-owned Google Premier Partner in Edinburgh. It is not a junior learning on your account, and it is not an automated scan that prints the same warnings for everyone. [Meet the team](https://cleandigital.co.uk/about) ### How long does it take and what happens after? A written breakdown within a few working days, covering where spend is being wasted and what to fix first, with a short call to walk through it if you want one.
