Done properly it takes about two hours and finds the<br \/>\nsame three things in most accounts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Those three things, in order of how much they usually cost:<\/strong> multiple products sharing one ad group so<br \/>\nnothing is attributable, missing negative keywords so campaigns bid against each other, and bids set from<br \/>\nAmazon&#8217;s suggestions rather than from the seller&#8217;s own break-even.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Work in the order below.<\/strong> The sequence matters, because several later checks are meaningless until<br \/>\nearlier ones pass. Auditing bids on an account with mixed ad groups tells you nothing at all.<\/p>\n<h2>Before you start<\/h2>\n<p>Pull three things and have them open.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The search term report<\/strong>, last 60 days. Long enough for real click volume.<br \/>\n<strong>The bulk operations file<\/strong>, which shows structure, bids, and negatives in one place and is far faster to<br \/>\nread than clicking through campaigns.<br \/>\n<strong>Your break-even cost per click per product.<\/strong> If this does not exist, calculate it first. Everything<br \/>\ndownstream is guesswork without it, and our guide to<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/zonhack.com\/zh\/amazon-bid-types-and-strategies\/\">Amazon bid types and strategies<\/a> covers the<br \/>\narithmetic.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d refuse to start an audit without that third item. In our experience it is missing more often than not,<br \/>\nand it is the reason so many audits conclude &#8220;reduce ACoS&#8221; rather than something actionable.<\/p>\n<h2>The ten checks, in order<\/h2>\n<h3>1. Products per ad group<\/h3>\n<p>Count them. <strong>Anything above one ASIN or one tight variation family is a finding<\/strong>, and I&#8217;d rank it first every time because it makes the rest of your data unreadable.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Negative keywords present<\/h3>\n<p>Check whether campaigns have any. An account spending for months with empty negative lists is paying<br \/>\nrepeatedly for the same lessons and running internal bidding wars. Our guide to<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/zonhack.com\/zh\/optimize-negative-keywords-on-amazon\/\">negative keywords on Amazon<\/a> covers the fix.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Search term duplication across campaigns<\/h3>\n<p>Filter the search term report for terms appearing in more than one campaign. <strong>Each duplicate is you bidding against yourself<\/strong>, and in our experience this check surprises people most.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Campaigns hitting budget caps<\/h3>\n<p>Identify which exhaust budget before the day ends. A capped campaign is throttled rather than optimized,<br \/>\nand its apparent efficiency is an artifact of the cap rather than a result.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Bids versus break-even<\/h3>\n<p>Compare actual cost per click against the break-even figure per product. <strong>Any keyword consistently above<br \/>\nbreak-even and not deliberately funding a launch is losing money on purpose without anyone deciding to.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>6. Placement adjustments<\/h3>\n<p>Check whether top-of-search adjustments exist on proven keywords. In my experience they are frequently all at zero, which leaves the best-converting placement to whoever bothered.<\/p>\n<h3>7. Bidding strategy per campaign<\/h3>\n<p>Confirm that discovery campaigns are on down-only and that up-and-down bidding, where used, sits only on<br \/>\nkeywords with genuine conversion history.<\/p>\n<h3>8. Keywords paused on thin data<\/h3>\n<p>Look for paused keywords with fewer than 10 clicks. <strong>This is the quiet killer.<\/strong> Accounts pause their way<br \/>\ninto irrelevance one under-sampled term at a time, and the paused list is where you find the evidence.<\/p>\n<h3>9. Products advertised while out of stock<\/h3>\n<p>Cross-check active campaigns against inventory. Advertising unavailable products happens more often than<br \/>\nanyone admits, and it is pure loss.<\/p>\n<h3>10. Naming and structure legibility<\/h3>\n<p>Read the campaign names. If you cannot tell what a campaign is for, nobody has been managing it<br \/>\ndeliberately, and I&#8217;d treat that as the real finding rather than a cosmetic one.<\/p>\n<h2>What the three common findings actually cost<\/h2>\n<p>Putting numbers on them, because &#8220;wasted spend&#8221; is easy to nod at and hard to act on.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mixed ad groups.<\/strong> Take an ad group with 5 ASINs sharing a $50 daily budget and 40 keywords. Amazon<br \/>\nserves whichever product it judges most likely to convert, so 1 or 2 products absorb most of the spend<br \/>\nand the reporting attributes the keyword performance to the ad group rather than to a product. You cannot<br \/>\ntell which of the 5 earned the sale. <strong>The cost is not the spend, it is every subsequent decision made on<br \/>\nunreadable data.<\/strong> In our experience that compounds for months.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Missing negatives.<\/strong> With no negatives, a single search term can trigger 3 of your campaigns. You win<br \/>\none auction, you pay for it, and the other 2 impressions were competition you funded against yourself.<br \/>\nMultiply across a few hundred terms and the waste is substantial without any single line item looking<br \/>\nwrong.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bids from suggestions rather than break-even.<\/strong> Amazon&#8217;s suggested bid reflects auction competition,<br \/>\nnot your economics. A product with a $6 contribution margin converting at 8% supports roughly $0.48 per<br \/>\nclick. If the suggested bid is $1.20 and you took it, you are losing money on every sale and the ACoS<br \/>\nfigure alone will not tell you, because ACoS knows nothing about your costs.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d quantify all three before presenting an audit. When I have shown a seller the arithmetic rather than<br \/>\nthe observation, the fix happened that week.<\/p>\n<h2>Auditing an account you did not build<\/h2>\n<p>Slightly different job, and worth its own note because agencies and new hires inherit accounts constantly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do not change anything for the first week.<\/strong> Read only. The temptation to fix the obvious immediately<br \/>\ndestroys the baseline you will need to prove the work later.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Screenshot or export the current state<\/strong>, including bids, budgets, and structure. Bulk files are ideal.<br \/>\nWithout a before, you cannot demonstrate an after.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ask what changed in the last 90 days<\/strong> before assuming the account was always like this. A restructure<br \/>\nthree weeks ago explains a lot of apparently irrational data.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Find out who else has access.<\/strong> More than one person adjusting bids without coordination produces<br \/>\npatterns that look algorithmic and are not.<\/p>\n<h2>Reading the findings<\/h2>\n<p>The part that turns a checklist into an audit.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Group findings by cause, not by campaign.<\/strong> Twelve campaigns with missing negatives is one finding, not<br \/>\ntwelve. Sellers who list every instance produce a document nobody acts on.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rank by cost, not by count.<\/strong> One mixed ad group on your best-selling product matters more than eight on<br \/>\nproducts that barely sell.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Separate structural from tactical.<\/strong> Structure changes take effect over weeks and reset performance<br \/>\nhistory. Bid changes take effect immediately. <strong>Do the structural work first and deliberately<\/strong>, then tune,<br \/>\nbecause doing it the other way round means redoing the tuning.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Write down no more than five decisions.<\/strong> An audit finding thirty things produces no change. When I<br \/>\nhave handed over a five-item list with owners and dates, the work happened. When I have handed over a<br \/>\nthorough report, it did not.<\/p>\n<h2>What an audit will not tell you<\/h2>\n<p>Worth saying, because audits get asked to explain everything.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Whether the product is any good.<\/strong> Advertising amplifies a listing&#8217;s existing conversion. If relevant<br \/>\ntraffic arrives and does not buy, the problem is upstream and our guide to<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/zonhack.com\/zh\/using-amazon-brand-analytics-to-grow-your-business\/\">Amazon Brand Analytics<\/a> covers<br \/>\ndiagnosing which funnel stage loses the sale.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Whether your price is right.<\/strong> Ads cannot out-spend a competitor who is cheaper with faster delivery.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Whether the category is worth being in.<\/strong> Sometimes the honest audit finding is that the margin does not<br \/>\nsupport the cost per click in that category at all, and I&#8217;d say so rather than optimizing toward a<br \/>\nceiling.<\/p>\n<h2>How often<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Quarterly for a stable account, monthly after any significant change<\/strong>: a new product launch, a<br \/>\nrestructure, a budget shift, or a change of whoever manages it.<\/p>\n<p>A full audit more often than monthly is not useful, because structural changes need weeks to produce<br \/>\nreadable data. The weekly work is different: search term review and bid adjustment, which our guide to<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/zonhack.com\/zh\/amazon-ppc-campaign-structure\/\">Amazon PPC campaign structure<\/a> covers.<\/p>\n<p>If you would rather have this run properly than scheduled and skipped, that sits inside our<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/zonhack.com\/zh\/amazon-ppc-management-service-cost\/\">Amazon PPC service<\/a>. We are an Amazon Ads<br \/>\npartner and an Amazon SPN Verified Partner.<\/p>\n<h2>FAQ<\/h2>\n<h3>How do I conduct an Amazon PPC audit?<\/h3>\n<p>Pull the last 60 days of search term data, the bulk operations file, and your break-even cost per click,<br \/>\nthen work through ten checks in order: products per ad group, negatives present, search term duplication,<br \/>\nbudget caps, bids against break-even, placement adjustments, bidding strategy, keywords paused on thin<br \/>\ndata, out-of-stock products still advertised, and structure legibility.<\/p>\n<h3>What does a PPC audit usually find?<\/h3>\n<p>Three things in most accounts: multiple products sharing one ad group so performance is not attributable,<br \/>\nmissing negative keywords so campaigns bid against each other, and bids set from Amazon&#8217;s suggestions<br \/>\nrather than from the seller&#8217;s own break-even figure.<\/p>\n<h3>How long does an Amazon PPC audit take?<\/h3>\n<p>About two hours for a mid-sized account, provided the break-even figures already exist. Calculating those<br \/>\nfirst is what usually extends it, and skipping them makes the rest of the audit guesswork.<\/p>\n<h3>How often should I audit Amazon PPC?<\/h3>\n<p>Quarterly for a stable account, and monthly after a significant change such as a launch, a restructure, or<br \/>\na change of manager. More often than monthly is not useful, because structural changes need weeks to<br \/>\nproduce readable data.<\/p>\n<h3>Why should structural fixes come before bid changes?<\/h3>\n<p>Because bid data from a campaign with several products in one ad group is not attributable to any of them.<br \/>\nFixing structure first also resets performance history, so tuning done beforehand has to be redone<br \/>\nafterward.<\/p>\n<h3>What should a PPC audit produce?<\/h3>\n<p>No more than five decisions, each with an owner and a date, grouped by cause rather than by campaign and<br \/>\nranked by cost rather than by count. An audit that produces thirty observations produces no change.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Last updated: August 31, 2026.
