Self-auditFree tool

Audit your own conversion tracking, free

Twelve questions covering the failures we find on real client accounts, each weighted by how much it moves your numbers. The score is arithmetic on your own answers with the weights printed next to every question — there's no benchmark, no comparison to businesses like yours, and no number engineered to make you feel you need help. If it comes back clean, you don't have a tracking problem.

Self-audit your conversion tracking

Twelve questions covering the failures we actually find on client accounts, weighted by how much each one moves your numbers. The score comes entirely from your answers — there is no benchmark and no comparison to anyone else, because we don't have that data and inventing it would make the number meaningless.

  • Is there a written, agreed source of truth for conversions?

    The system whose record decides whether a conversion happened — a store, CRM or billing system, not a dashboard.

    weight 5
  • Have you reconciled your own records against each platform in the last 90 days?

    Matched per record over a fully closed window, not compared as totals.

    weight 5
  • Is deduplication verified where both browser and server paths are live?

    Meta exposes a Deduplicated indicator; read it over seven days.

    weight 5
  • Do refunds or cancellations reverse at every destination?

    weight 4
  • Do your CRM or order records carry a click identifier?

    gclid, gbraid, wbraid, fbclid — all four, not just the first.

    weight 4
  • Has consent been tested by denying it and capturing the network traffic?

    weight 4
  • Is tracking verification on your release checklist?

    weight 3
  • Would you learn within days if conversions stopped arriving?

    Google flags an inactive conversion action 30 days after the last hit.

    weight 3
  • Do you know every system currently sending conversion events?

    Container, platform apps, native integrations, and any previous agency's tags.

    weight 3
  • Does each campaign objective have exactly one primary conversion action?

    weight 2
  • Do conversions carry real values rather than a flat placeholder?

    weight 2
  • Could someone internal explain the setup if the person who built it left?

    weight 2

Self-audit · what breaks

What this tool is for — Self-audit

  1. 01

    You suspect the numbers are wrong

    But don't know where to start looking.

  2. 02

    You inherited a setup

    Built by someone who's gone, undocumented.

  3. 03

    You want a prioritised list

    Rather than a general feeling that something is off.

Self-audit · the fix

What you get out of it — Self-audit

  • A weighted score you can audit

    Every weight is shown next to its question.

  • An action list, heaviest first

    So the first thing you do is the thing that matters most.

  • A downloadable result

    To re-run in 90 days and compare.

Self-audit · architecture

Why a self-audit is worth doing before hiring anyone

Most of what a paid tracking audit finds in the first day is checkable by you, for nothing, this afternoon.

  1. 1

    The expensive part is diagnosis, not detection

    Noticing that the numbers disagree is easy. Knowing which of forty causes explains it is the part worth paying for — and half the time there's nothing to diagnose.

  2. 2

    An auditor who always finds something

    is telling you about their incentives rather than your setup. Running this first means you'll know whether a finding is real.

  3. 3

    A prioritised list changes behaviour

    A general sense that tracking is unreliable doesn't. Weighted items in order do.

  4. 4

    Re-running it is how you catch drift

    A setup that was fine in March and isn't in June is the common case, and only a repeated check finds it.

Self-audit · diagnose

What this tool cannot tell you — Self-audit

Stated up front, because a tool that implies more confidence than it has is worse than no tool. These are checks you have to run yourself.

  1. 01

    Whether your numbers are actually wrong

    It asks what you've checked, not what's true. A reconciliation against your own records is the only thing that answers that.

  2. 02

    Which specific tag is broken

    It surfaces categories of problem, not line-level faults. The validator tools do that.

  3. 03

    Whether your answers are right

    An optimistic self-audit scores well and changes nothing.

  4. 04

    Anything about your account directly

    It has no access to anything. Everything it knows, you told it.

Self-audit · prove

How to confirm the result — Self-audit

Against your own records, not against the tool's output.

Source of truth

your own order, CRM or booking records

  • A reconciliation run against your own records for a closed month.
  • Each flagged item checked directly rather than assumed.
  • The result downloaded and re-run 90 days later.
  • Reconciled over a fully closed window, matched per record rather than on totals.
  • Re-checked after your next site release, which is when most breaks happen.

Self-audit · when not to buy

Why this isn't gated — Self-audit

There's no email form in front of it, and that's deliberate.

  • A tool you have to pay for with your contact details is a lead form wearing a costume. If this is useful, it should be useful without a transaction.
  • Everything it does runs in your browser. There is no endpoint, so there is nothing for us to collect even if we wanted to — open your network tab and check.
  • It will tell you when you don't have a problem. That outcome costs us a sale and happens regularly, which is the point of publishing it rather than putting it behind a call.
  • If it does find something and you'd rather fix it yourself, the reference pages on this site cover the how. Hiring us is one option, not the conclusion.

Self-audit · what we deliver

What it checks — Self-audit

  • Source of truth and reconciliation

    The two questions that carry the most weight, because everything else depends on them.

  • Deduplication and refund reversal

    The faults that actively distort bidding rather than merely starving it.

  • Click ID coverage and consent

    What limits offline import, and what's leaving when it shouldn't.

  • Governance

    Release checklists, monitoring, and whether anyone but one person understands the setup.
