Step 1: Sign in to Your Google Ads Account
The first step in deleting a Google Ad campaign is to sign in to your Google Ads account. Once you’re signed in, you’ll be taken to the Google Ads dashboard where you can manage all of your campaigns.
Step 2: Select the Campaign You Want to Delete
Next, navigate to the “Campaigns” tab in your Google Ads dashboard. This is where you can view all of your active campaigns. Find the campaign you want to delete and click on it to select it.
Step 3: Click on the “Settings” Tab
Once you’ve selected the campaign you want to delete, click on the “Settings” tab. This will take you to the campaign settings page.
Step 4: Scroll to the Bottom of the Page
Scroll to the bottom of the campaign settings page until you see the “Remove Campaign” button. Click on this button to delete the campaign.
Step 5: Confirm Deletion
After clicking on the “Remove Campaign” button, a pop-up window will appear asking you to confirm that you want to delete the campaign. Click “OK” to confirm.
Step 6: Wait for the Campaign to be Removed
After confirming the deletion, the campaign will be removed from your Google Ads account. It may take a few minutes for the campaign to be completely removed, so be patient.
Step 7: Double-Check That the Campaign Has Been Deleted
Once the campaign has been removed, double-check to make sure that it’s no longer listed in your Google Ads dashboard. If you still see the campaign listed, try refreshing the page or waiting a few more minutes for the deletion to take effect.
