💡 Today’s Insight 💡
🗞 TL;DR - Even if you hate doing them, paid search audits are integral to having a strong, successful paid search strategy. But now, they don’t have to be so time-consuming and headache-inducing. AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Gemini can transform your entire auditing process and help you conduct actionable audits that drive better performance.
💡 Insight - Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to use your favorite AI model to conduct better search audits:
Input your initial account review into a Google Doc (bonus: use your phone’s text-to-speech feature to really make it quick), then feed that raw data into your chatbot. Ask it to organize your thoughts, structure the observations, and identify issues.
Use AI to simplify complex concepts and translate technical jargon for stakeholders. This can help turn the thoughts from your head into polished presentations with actionable steps to implement.
Once you’ve provided the AI with account data, ask it targeted questions like: What are the biggest opportunities for improvement? Are there any red flags to be concerned about? Which keywords have high cost but low conversions?
Apply the process of analyzing data with AI at every level of the account hierarchy – the campaign level, ad group level, and keywords and ads. You can even have AI create a template of the analysis it gives you, so you can have a standardized audit checklist, or have it generate reports and automate regular reporting.
Audit ad copy with the AI’s recommendations or provide the chatbot with your competitors’ ad copy to help analyze their strategies and suggest opportunities for differentiation.
