Higher advertising costs or fewer leads require an account-level diagnosis. An industry CTR study does not prove why an individual campaign changed, and a decline in clicks is not the same as a decline in profitability.
Seer Interactive’s September 2025 analysis covered informational and educational queries across 42 client organizations from June 2024 through September 2025. It reported lower CTRs in the groups studied. These were selected query observations, not a controlled experiment or a forecast for every Google Ads account.
Compare spend, impressions, clicks, cost per click, qualified conversions, and value using consistent attribution settings. Check tracking, consent changes, conversion actions, search terms, geography, match types, budgets, and landing pages. An apparent drop in leads can also be a measurement or form-delivery problem.
Review result layouts for important queries and save dated examples. Ads, competitors, seasonality, and changes in demand can affect performance alongside AI features. Avoid assuming a single industry percentage describes your local campaign or proves that AI caused its cost increase.
Prioritize poor-fit queries, broken journeys, unclear offers, and weak measurement. Agree on the success criteria and testing period, allowing for the sales cycle. Evaluate qualified acquisition cost and business value, not CTR in isolation. Diversification can be reasonable, but it should follow evidence about your customers and economics.
