Although there are pros and cons for every formatting option, our recommendation is to develop and deliver your Google Ads reports via Looker Studio. Alternatively, the second best option is to use our Google Ads Google Sheets Reporting template that can be downloaded on this page.
How often should I deliver a Google Ads performance report?
Ideally you should develop a Google Ads report via Looker Studio, accessible 24/7 and updating in real-time.
In terms of communicating your Google Ads campaign performance to your stakeholders, reporting delivery depends on your budget:
-
Small Accounts < $5,000 spent per month: Monthly Reports
-
Medium or Growing Accounts spending between $5K - $20K: Bi-Weekly Reports
-
Large Accounts spending over $20K per month: Weekly Reports
The above reporting time-frames are a good rule of thumb to follow, however please note that the frequency of your Google Ads reporting should always take into account your specific Google Ads campaign management and business needs.
