Q: Question about the leads / use questions
Hey, I purchased a program and it's really cool so far, but I'm curious:
First, how do I find businesses that are running Google ads and/or Facebook ads?
Second, how do I save my search? I searched for businesses and exported the list but can I not save that search and results?
Third, what is email cold calling?
Also, the SEO audits are very inaccurate for anything other than the most basic items. It doesn't accurately detect links, alt text, sitemaps, etc. Are these being fixed now?
Thanks for your help.

Sep 18, 2025A: Hi,
Thank you for joining the SmatLeads Tribe — I’m glad to hear you’re enjoying the platform so far! Let me walk you through your questions one by one:
Finding businesses running Google/Facebook ads
To check this, go to the “Manage Leads” tab, select the project where your leads are saved, then click the three dots on the far right of each lead. From there, you can generate a report which will display whether they’re running Google Ads or Facebook Ads.
Saving your searches
Once you’ve run a search and your leads are displayed, you can select them by clicking “Select All” and then saving them into a project. This way, you don’t lose your search results, and you can revisit or export them anytime.
What is email cold calling?
This simply means sending outreach emails to potential prospects who haven’t interacted with you yet. Think of it as the email equivalent of a cold call — reaching out to introduce your business and start a conversation.
SEO audit accuracy
You’re absolutely right — some of the SEO audit features currently handle only the basics. The good news is that we’re in the middle of a major revamp to make our audits far more accurate and comprehensive (covering links, alt text, sitemaps, and more). These improvements are already in progress and will be rolled out in upcoming updates.
