If you have been utilizing Google AdWords but have made the decision to disconnect your account from it, don’t worry because it can easily be done. Google provides the option to remove the link between your Google account and AdWords service, allowing your personal or business account to function separately from the advertising service. Follow the simple steps below to successfully disassociate your account from Google AdWords.
Steps to disassociating your account from Google AdWords
Step 1: Sign in to your Google AdWords account
Open your web browser and go to the Google AdWords homepage. Click on the ‘Sign In’ button at the top right corner of the page and enter your Google account credentials to log in.
Step 2: Go to your account settings
Once logged in, locate and click on the ‘Tools & Settings’ icon at the top right-hand corner of the screen. A drop-down menu will appear. Click on ‘Account Settings’.
Step 3: Navigate to ‘Preferences’
In the Account Settings page, find and click on the ‘Preferences’ tab.
Step 4: Cancel your AdWords account
Under the ‘Account cancellation’ section, click on the ‘Cancel my AdWords account’ button. A pop-up dialog box will appear, asking you to confirm your decision. Once you’re sure, click on the ‘Cancel my Account’ button in the dialog box.
Note:
Cancelling your AdWords account doesn’t delete your Google Account. This only disassociates your account from Google AdWords. You can still access other Google services using the same Google Account.
Step 5: Confirmation email
Finally, Google will send you a confirmation email confirming the account cancellation. Check your email linked to your Google account for this email.
Conclusion
And that’s it! In just five simple steps, you can disassociate your account from Google AdWords. Remember, this action is permanent and cannot be undone. However, you can always create a new AdWords account if you choose to use the service again in the future. Before you disassociate your account, make sure it is the right decision for you or your business.
