What is this tool

Stop wasting ad budget — forecast Google Ads performance before you spend

Our Google Ads Budget Calculator gives you complete budget clarity. Enter your daily/monthly budget, target CPC, conversion rate, and AOV. Instantly forecast clicks, impressions, conversions, and ROAS. Test different scenarios and optimize budget allocation before spending a dollar.

FAQ

Google Ads budget questions answered

What's a good daily budget for Google Ads?+
Start with 10-20x your target CPA. If target CPA is $50, start with $500-1,000 daily budget. For smaller budgets, target long-tail keywords with lower CPC. Our calculator helps you forecast results at any budget level.
How do I calculate required budget from target CPA?+
Required budget = (Desired conversions × Target CPA) ÷ (1 + wasted spend buffer). Use our CPA to Budget calculator: enter desired monthly conversions and target CPA → get recommended daily budget instantly.
What's a good CPC for Google Ads?+
It varies by industry. Legal/finance: $10-50 CPC. Ecommerce: $1-3 CPC. B2B SaaS: $5-15 CPC. Use our Required CPC calculator: enter target CPA and conversion rate to find maximum profitable CPC.
How do I forecast conversions from my budget?+
Clicks = Budget ÷ CPC. Conversions = Clicks × Conversion Rate. Our Budget to Conversions forecast does this automatically. Test different CPC and CR scenarios to see impact.
What's the difference between daily and monthly budgets?+
Google recommends daily budgets. Monthly budget = daily budget × 30.4 (average days per month). Our calculator supports both — use daily for active management, monthly for long-term planning.
How do I calculate maximum CPC from target ROAS?+
Max CPC = (AOV × Conversion Rate) ÷ Target ROAS. If AOV is $100, CR is 2% (0.02), and target ROAS is 4x, max CPC = ($100 × 0.02) ÷ 4 = $0.50. Our ROAS to Budget calculator handles this automatically.
Should I set campaign budgets at ad group or campaign level?+
Campaign-level budgets are easier to manage. Use ad group-level budgets for strict control over different product lines or audiences. Our campaign comparison tool helps you test both approaches.
How often should I adjust Google Ads budgets?+
Review budgets weekly for active campaigns. Increase budgets for top-performing campaigns, pause underperformers. Use our what-if scenario tool to test budget changes before implementing.
