How it opens

Most ad problems are page problems wearing an ad costume. Fifteen checks that walk the exact path a paying click takes: promise in the ad, promise on the page, proof, price, and the one-second test that predicts bounce before you spend.

That is page one, unedited. The remaining 4 sections carry the thresholds, the tables and the fixes.

Who this is for

  • Store owners buying paid traffic
  • Landing page builders
  • Media buyers blamed for page problems

Where this came from

Not theory and not a summary of someone else's blog post. Every checklist here came out of an account I actually run, and the thresholds are the ones I use on a Monday morning.

Questions

What does it cost?

Nothing. There is no paid tier behind it and no call to book at the end.

What format is it?

A checklist pdf you can download and keep. It opens on a phone.

What happens to my email address?

It goes on my list so I can send you the writing. I do not sell it or share it, and every email has an unsubscribe link.

Do I need to be running Google Ads already?

No. Plenty of this applies before you spend a dollar, and knowing the thresholds up front is cheaper than learning them live.

Where should I send it?
