PPC Strategy & Audit Services
Find what’s holding your pay-per-click (PPC) ads back. Fix it. Grow your business.
Most PPC campaigns fall flat because they’re not built right.
Sure, your PPC ads might be driving traffic, but if they’re driving the wrong traffic, what’s the point?
This usually comes down to a mix of issues, including poor ad design and messaging, weak targeting, or a lack of direction.
A proper PPC audit shows you what’s going wrong, and how to fix things.
We’ll build you a PPC strategy that’s built for your unique audience, helping you drive more quality, ready-to-convert traffic.
What is a PPC audit?
A PPC audit is a detailed review of your current campaigns to identify what’s working and what isn’t.
It’s not a surface-level check.
It’s about understanding how your account is structured, how your budget is being used and whether your campaigns are aligned with your business goals.
We audit across:
- Google Ads (search, display, shopping, Performance Max)
- Microsoft Ads
- Meta Ads (Facebook & Instagram)
- LinkedIn Ads
We find what’s wrong and fix it. We’ve been doing this for years; our expert team knows exactly what to look for.

On average our Paid Ads service delivers a:
17% reduction in ad spend
38% increase in conversions
300% return on ad spend
What does a PPC audit cover?
A proper PPC account audit looks at how your account performs from end to end.
That includes:
Are campaigns set up in a way that gives you control over spend and performance?
Are you reaching the right people, or paying for clicks that were never likely to convert?
Where is budget being lost on irrelevant or low-intent traffic?
Are your ads strong enough to drive clicks and conversions, or are they being ignored?
Are users being guided towards action, or dropping off before they convert?
Can you trust the numbers you’re making decisions from?
Is spend focused on what’s working, or spread too thin across everything?
The output isn’t just a list of issues. It’s a clear view of where performance is being lost and how to fix it.
Why is a PPC account audit important?
Because most issues aren’t obvious.
Campaigns can look fine on the surface, but when you look a little deeper, they’re haemorrhaging budget.
A PPC audit helps you:
- Identify wasted spend you didn’t know was there
- Understand why leads or sales aren’t where they should be
- Spot missed opportunities to scale performance
- Get clarity on what’s driving results
Without that, it’s guesswork. With it, you have direction.

PPC strategy development

We don’t just audit your PPC account and then send you on your merry way.
Once we’ve identified the issues and opportunities, we build a PPC strategy tailored specifically to your business and audience, not just your campaigns.
That means:
- Defining what a lead or sale is worth to you
- Prioritising the campaigns and channels that will deliver the best return
- Restructuring accounts to improve control and efficiency
- Aligning targeting and messaging with your audience
- Setting a clear plan for scaling what works
For ecommerce, that might mean focusing on feed optimisation, product segmentation and return on ad spend.
For B2B, it’s often about lead quality, targeting and supporting longer sales cycles.
The audit shows us where you are, what works and what doesn’t. We use our in-depth research and data to build a PPC strategy that’s unique to you, ready to help deliver ROI.
