🕵️‍♂️ Google Ads Checker

Google Ads Checker helps marketers instantly discover which companies are not advertising on Google — so you can reach out and offer your services! 🚀

💡 What It Does

This Actor checks if a website (domain) has or had ads listed in Google's public Ads Transparency Center — covering Google Search, YouTube, Google Maps, Google Play and Google Shopping.

Just give us your list of domains — paste them or upload a file — and the Actor will:

• 🔍 Clean your input list (removes https://, www., paths, query strings)
• 🧩 Combine duplicates into a single domain check
• 🌍 Run the ads check for each unique domain
• ✅ Return hasGoogleAds: true or false for every domain
• 🏢 When ads are found, also return the advertiser name, advertiser ID, and an approximate ad count — extra context for your outreach, at no extra request

This way, you get accurate, enriched results without wasting requests.

⚙️ Input Options

🗂 Your domains

Give us your list of domains in whichever way is easiest for you — you can even use both at once, they'll be combined automatically:

• 📝 Paste them directly — one domain per line, hundreds or thousands at once. Use domains only (like example.com), not company or brand names.
• 📤 Or upload a file — a JSON, CSV, or Excel (.xlsx) file that already has your domains in it. Legacy .xls files aren't supported — just re-save as .xlsx first.
  • Two simple steps: 1) upload your file, 2) tell us the column name (CSV/Excel) or key name (JSON) where your domains live — for example domain or website
  • Works with nested JSON too, using dot notation (e.g. site.domain)
  • If a row has more than one domain (an array, or several domains separated by a comma/semicolon in one cell), all of them are checked

🌐 Region / Country

Choose "Anywhere (global)" or focus your check on one specific market.

🎯 Filters (optional)

Want a more specific check? Two optional filters, matching the same ones on Google's own Ads Transparency Center site:

• 🗓 Date range — "Any time" (broadest, most reliable check for outreach), or narrow it to Yesterday, Last 7 days, or Last 30 days to focus on recent activity
• 📺 Platform — check ad presence on one specific platform only: Google Search, YouTube, Google Maps, Google Shopping, or Google Play. Leave as "All platforms" to check everywhere at once

Leave both as default for the broadest, most reliable "have they ever advertised" check.

💰 Pricing

Pay‑Per‑Event model — you pay only for the number of unique domains checked.

🎯 Ideal For

Marketers, agencies, and lead‑gen professionals who want to:

• Identify businesses not running Google Ads (ever or currently)
• Offer ad campaign setup or optimization services
• Build targeted outreach lists fast
• Spot which platforms (Search, YouTube, Shopping...) a competitor or prospect is already using

🧠 Example Use Case

Paste (or upload) a list of company websites → get a table showing which ones have or had ads, plus advertiser name and approximate ad count → contact those without ads to pitch your Google Ads services, or study the ad activity of those who do.

Simple. Fast. Insightful. Turn ad transparency into new marketing opportunities! ✨
