Google Ads Audit Household Income Analysis (Part 16 Tutorial 2022)

Google Ads Audit Overview:

This is part 16 in our Google Ads Audit tutorial series where we will deep dive into Household Insights.

We'll use Google UI to collect and organize the data and utilize Google Sheets/Excel and Google Slides to further analyze and cement our findings.

This data can be solid grounding for doing bid adjustments, exclusions or including promotions.

1.      Go into Google Ads UI. Find Search Campaigns, then to Demographics and Household Income.

Here is the Ad Groups demographics. Some unknown incomes here are spending the most money. We can do bid adjustments on this. I’ll input -5 for these, but for well-performing incomes, we filter by conversions. Do the lowest cost per conversion and bid it up.
