Do not audit your account immediately after making changes to your campaign. So let the changes reflect in your account and then consider conducting an audit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Doing an audit manually can be quite a task!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>We at Karooya have tools and features that simplify auditing your PPC account.

Duplicate keywords make it difficult to track the performance of keywords, as the data gets split across multiple keywords.

You would like all the traffic for that search query to go to that specific ad group. That is, if your search query is &#8220;nike running shoes&#8221; you would like to match in the adgroup about &#8220;nike running shoes&#8221; and the generic, catch-all &#8220;nike shoes&#8221; adgroup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.karooya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/cross-ad-group-impressions-amazon-ads-karooya.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"177\" src=\"https:\/\/www.karooya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/cross-ad-group-impressions-amazon-ads-karooya-1024x177.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16909\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.karooya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/cross-ad-group-impressions-amazon-ads-karooya-1024x177.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.karooya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/cross-ad-group-impressions-amazon-ads-karooya-300x52.png 300w, https:\/\/www.karooya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/cross-ad-group-impressions-amazon-ads-karooya-768x133.png 768w, https:\/\/www.karooya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/cross-ad-group-impressions-amazon-ads-karooya.png 1463w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-enjoy-the-perks-ad-schedule-for-amazon-ads\"><strong>Enjoy The Perks &#8211; Ad Schedule for Amazon Ads<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Amazon Ads doesn&#8217;t have the option to schedule your ads on specific day(s) of the week or time of the day.
