What you get

Wasted spend is the Ads cost in the supplied row; it is not a forecast of future savings. Exact is suggested for terms containing multiple words, while phrase is suggested for single words. The generic reason means all three model conditions passed. No finding means at least one condition failed, not that the term is proven valuable.

How it works

The engine builds a set of three-character n-grams from supplied GSC queries. Each Ads search term is converted to the same representation, and the share of its n-grams found in the theme is calculated. Terms at or below 10% overlap qualify only when cost is positive and conversions are zero. Aggregate “other” rows are excluded, and suggestions are sorted by spend.

Features

  • Optional first-party organic theme instead of a generic stop-word list.
  • Spend-ranked findings with conservative match-type defaults.
  • Local processing and explicit Ads/GSC header validation.

Limitations

  • Character overlap is lexical, not semantic; synonyms and homonyms can mislead it.
  • The optional brand allowlist uses exact, contained, and typo-tolerant lexical matching; review exclusions for ambiguous brand/common-word terms.
  • Conversion lag, value, assisted impact, and offline attribution are not modeled.
  • Single-word phrase negatives can block many useful searches and require manual expansion checks.

Frequently asked questions

How does the negative keyword generator choose suggestions?

A search term must have positive cost, zero recorded conversions, and no more than 10 percent trigram overlap with the optional GSC query theme.

What happens if I do not add GSC queries?

There is no theme vocabulary, so every non-aggregate Ads term with spend and zero conversions can qualify. Add GSC queries for a more selective review list.

Why are multi-word terms suggested as exact negatives?

The engine uses exact match for multi-word suggestions to reduce blocking risk. Single-word suggestions use phrase match and deserve especially careful review.

Can a zero-conversion term still be valuable?

Yes. Attribution lag, assisted conversions, low sample size, offline sales, or a strategic upper-funnel role can all make a suggestion unsafe to exclude.

Can I upload the suggestions directly to Google Ads?

Download the CSV for a review-ready negative list. The tool never changes your account or imports the list automatically.
