Google Quietly Deleted the Keywords That Were Converting 22.05.2026 4:36
Send us Fan Mail Google was removing keywords, editing bids, and changing targeting without the business owner knowing. Claire audits a flight booking company where auto-applied recommendations turned off the small volume keywords that were converting cheaply and replaced them with broad match. 216 keywords crammed into 1 campaign meant poor ad strength and invisible ads. She explains how to check...
209 Negative Keywords and the Account Was Still Bleeding 20.05.2026 4:40
Send us Fan Mail 209 negative keywords added by the business owner and the search terms were still full of rubbish.

She explains why negative keywords cannot fix a structura...
The Cookie Banner That Was Hiding Every Conversion 18.05.2026 4:04
Send us Fan Mail $981 spent and zero conversions showing. But the salon was actually getting bookings.

She explains how to check if your tracking is silently broken — and why a small banner at the bottom of your page might...
Every Google Recommendation Was On — And Every One Was Wrong 15.05.2026 4:28
Send us Fan Mail Every Google recommendation was turned on. Every campaign was the wrong type. And the results were getting worse. Claire audits an orthodontist's Google Ads account where auto-applied recommendations had converted every campaign to display network, added 739 broad match keywords, and launched YouTube and Performance Max campaigns — none of which were appropriate for an orthod...
Is Your Dashboard Double-Counting Leads? 13.05.2026 4:04
Send us Fan Mail 28 leads reported. Only 18 were real. Claire audits a personal injury law firm where conversion tracking was double counting, Performance Max generated zero leads, and the target CPA was set to $2,000. She explains how to check whether your numbers are inflated and what proper structure actually costs per lead — including a truck accident attorney getting leads at $55 each. https:...
755 Leads at $7 Each — So Why Was Nobody Booking? 11.05.2026 4:13
Send us Fan Mail 755 leads at $7 each. Sounds incredible until you realise none of them were converting into bookings.

She explains how dynamic ad groups meant for e-commerce were misused for lead generation, wh...
$953 Per Lead: The Bidding Strategy Nobody Questioned 08.05.2026 4:17

Why a Higher Optimisation Score Made Everything Worse 06.05.2026 5:03
Send us Fan Mail The optimisation score went up. The results went down. Claire audited a dog training school where 3 services were mixed into one campaign, the display network was bringing in fraud leads, and Google was spending the budget on puppy training searches instead of the high-value board and train enquiries. She explains why the optimisation score measures compliance with Google, not per...
4,085 Keywords, 1 Ad Group, and a Misspelled Headline 04.05.2026 5:40
Send us Fan Mail 4,085 keywords in a single ad group. One ad doing the work for all of them. And the word cleaning was misspelled in every headline. Claire breaks down the air duct cleaning account that had everything wrong — dynamic keyword insertion pulling in random terms, target impression share wasting budget on visibility instead of leads, and one landing page for every service. She explains...
$23,000 a Month and Nobody Was Tracking the Phones 30.04.2026 4:27
Send us Fan Mail $23,000 spent in a month. 9 form submissions. Zero phone calls tracked.
