Is Your Ad Spend Living Its Best Life? (The “No-Strings” Audit You Didn’t Know You Needed) 

June 3, 2026 - By Christopher Harper

Two weeks ago, we talked about why DIY-ing your Pay-Per-Click (PPC) advertising is a bit like trying to perform your own root canal—technically possible, but unnecessarily painful and likely to end in a mess. 

If you’ve been sitting on the fence, watching your “Cost Per Click” climb while your “Lead Count” stays stubbornly low, we have a question for you: What if you’re just one or two “toggles” away from a breakthrough? 

At McCord Web Services, we know that for many small to medium business owners, the biggest hurdle isn’t the desire to grow—it’s the uncertainty of whether their current setup is actually working. That’s why, for a very limited time, we’re opening the doors to our internal lab. 

The “Under the Hood” Truth 

Most PPC accounts we inherit from “set it and forget it” owners are suffering from a few common—and expensive—ailments: 

 The “Zombie” Keywords: Keywords that eat your budget every month but haven’t produced a sale since 2022. 

 The “Broad” Mistake: Targeting “Landscaping” when you actually only do “Commercial Tree Removal.” 

 The Mobile Trap: Paying for clicks from mobile apps where kids accidentally tap your ad while playing games. 

You might be doing everything “by the book,” but the book changes every week. As Google and Microsoft Advertising Partners, our strategists spend their lives reading the new chapters before they’re even published. 

Our Gift to You: The Professional PPC Account Review 

Between now and June 30th, McCord Web Services is offering a Comprehensive PPC Account Audit at no cost and with absolutely no obligation to hire us. 

This isn’t a generic, bot-generated PDF. One of our fully certified strategists—the same experts who manage our partner-level accounts—will personally dive into your Google or Microsoft Advertising data to find the leaks. 

Here is exactly what we’ll look for: 

 1. Wasted Spend Analysis: We’ll identify exactly which keywords are lighting your money on fire. 

 2. Conversion Tracking Health: Are you actually measuring what matters? (You’d be surprised how many businesses aren’t). 

 3. The “Partner” Perspective: We’ll show you which new features or “Beta” tools you’re missing out on that your competitors likely don’t know about yet. 

 4. Competitive Landscape: A quick look at how you stack up against others in your specific niche. 

Why Are We Doing This? 

Is it because we’re incredibly nice? Well, yes (our mothers certainly think so). But it’s also because we’re confident. 

We know that once you see the level of detail, technical precision, and strategic thinking that a Google and Microsoft Partner firm brings to the table, you’ll see the value in having a professional team in your corner. If you decide to take our audit and fix the issues yourself, that’s fine! If you decide you’d rather have us handle the heavy lifting so you can get back to running your business, we’d love to help. 

The Clock is Ticking: Offer Expires June 30th 

Digital marketing moves fast, and so does this offer. We take these audits seriously, which means we can only perform a limited number of them per week to ensure our certified strategists can give each one the attention it deserves. 

Don’t let another month of “maybe” marketing go by. Send us a contact form submission to Claim Your Free Account Review, mentioning in the comments you want our free account review. 

Terms: Offer valid for existing Google Ads or Microsoft Advertising accounts. Review must be requested by midnight on June 30th. No credit card required, no pushy sales calls—just expert advice from a partner you can trust.* 

Let’s stop the guesswork and start the growth.
