A pre-launch checklist for Google Ads policy review
Most disapprovals are avoidable. Run this list before publishing and you remove the usual reasons a campaign lands in review.
Most disapprovals we see are avoidable. Run this list before you press publish and you remove the common reasons a new campaign lands in review.
Landing page
- Business name, contact details and a privacy policy are visible without scrolling far.
- Claims on the page match claims in the ad — no new promises after the click.
- The page loads in under three seconds on mobile and has no broken links.
Ad copy
- No superlatives you cannot substantiate on the landing page.
- Capitalisation and punctuation follow the editorial policy — no all caps, no repeated symbols.
- Trademarks only where you are authorised to use them.
Account
- Advertiser verification is completed before the first campaign, not after a request.
- Billing country matches the business address on file.
- Conversion actions are set up and firing on a test submission.
If a campaign still goes to review, do not create a duplicate. Appeal once, with specifics, and wait. Parallel copies of a reviewed campaign are one of the fastest ways to escalate the situation.
