The Importance of a PPC Audit.
PPC Audit is the process of thoroughly analysing the setup and performance of PPC accounts and campaigns to identify missed opportunities and areas for improvement as well as provide an extensive list of recommendations on how to further improve the return on advertising spend. During this process, we analyse a tremendous number of factors so that a fully-tailored PPC strategy is built to guarantee a successful performance against competitors.
Reduce Investment While Maximising Results.
Regardless of the PPC account size, conducting a thorough PPC audit can save your business a lot of money but at the same time, improve your advertising performance.
In other words, a smaller PPC budget could get you the same or greater number of conversions. We have helped dozens of small-sized businesses and enterprises save thousands and millions of euros, respectively.
Regular PPC Audits Ensure Constant Success.
You might wonder when is the best time to get your campaigns audited. Well, this depends on several factors. You should get an audit straight away if:
- The same person has been managing your campaigns for a long period.
- The performance has been dropping recently.
- You want to get the same performance at a lower cost.
- Your competitors perform better than your business.
Regular audits allow us to constantly find new areas for improvement, and therefore are carried out free of charge for our existing clients on a monthly or quarterly basis.

Choose The MOST Qualified PPC Advertising Consultant.
There are plenty of businesses outsourcing PPC activities to agencies. A great deal of them selects agencies or consultants solely based on the fact that they have clients in the same industry, instead of checking how many years of experience and knowledge they have gained in the digital marketing field. Frankly enough, it takes many years and hard work to learn how the PPC ecosystem works, and a few days to understand how to optimally advertise a company that operates in a certain industry.
Given that it is extremely easy to waste money on PPC, it’s of utmost importance to get an expert to audit and manage your campaigns.
