What role does keyword analysis play in Google Ads auditing?
Keyword analysis plays a big role in Google Ads auditing. It helps to evaluate the effectiveness of selected keywords, identify optimisation opportunities and improve ad targeting and quality.
By analysing keyword performance data, such as click-through rate and click-through price, you can measure the relevance and profitability of your chosen keywords. This analysis helps identify poorly performing keywords that can be removed or modified, and reveals effective keywords that can be further exploited to even greater effect.
In addition, keyword analysis helps to refine ad groups, ad copy and landing pages to improve the overall effectiveness of the campaign. It ensures that ads are targeted to the right audience to maximise ad revenue, improving ad effectiveness and increasing results.
