Negative conflicts
Find campaign, ad group and shared-list negatives that may block active positive keywords.
What it is for
A faster check.
Not automatic judgement.
Negative keywords can quietly block the traffic an account is meant to capture. This script compares active positive keywords with campaign, ad-group and shared-list negatives, separates likely conflicts from low-risk exact cases and remembers previously reported conflicts.
- 01Set the recipient email
- 02Optionally add a tracking Sheet
- 03Choose whether to show low-risk exact single-word cases
- 04Run once after every major negative-list update
Match-type logic is nuanced. Verify the exact positive keyword, negative match type and query behaviour in Google Ads before removing a negative.
