Reading 4,000 Search Terms with Claude

Hand the weekly search term report sweep to Claude and approve each change

He no longer scrolls search terms by hand.

Per source Reported by an agency about its own client work, not independently verified.

Copy-paste prompt

Copy-paste promptStarter prompt (written by us)
Here is my search term report for the last [14] days [attach].
Give me, in plain English: the search terms wasting money (spend over $[x] with no orders) and the ones worth scaling (orders with ACoS under [y]%).
For each, the exact change you'd make. Don't make any change until I confirm it.

The source didn't publish its exact prompt. We wrote this starter so you can try the same workflow. Replace anything in [brackets].

What they did

Daniel Popa, a paid-ads consultant, says the search term report was the chore he pushed to Friday for ten years: sort by cost, find the junk queries and the one winner, forty minutes per account every week. Now Claude reads the report (4,000 search terms in his example) and gives him the wasters and the winners in plain English, and he says yes or no to each.

How it went

He no longer scrolls search terms by hand. The part that took him a while to trust: nothing changes in the account unless he confirms the exact change first.

We only report what the source says. Results are self-reported unless noted.

Worth knowing

He works across client accounts, and the post doesn't give results or say how Claude connects to the account.
