More of the right searches, fewer of the wrong ones

A lot of PPC money goes on searches that were never going to become a job. Someone wants a DIY guide, a price for a service you don't offer, or work in a town you don't cover. We set up your Bolton campaigns to catch the searches that bring in work and block the ones that don't.

Why a better ad can cost you less

Google doesn't just sell the top spot to whoever bids highest. It also scores how well your ad and your landing page match what the person searched for.

A high score can put you above a competitor who bids more. A £4.00 bid with a strong ad and page can beat a £6.00 bid with weak ones, and pay less per click.

For a Bolton business, that means clear ads for each service, leading to pages about that service in Bolton. It's slower to set up than one broad campaign, and it pays for itself in cheaper clicks.

    How Ad Rank is worked out

    Ad Rank = your bid × your Quality Score

    Quality Score is Google's mark out of ten for how useful your ad and your page are to the person searching. It is scored on three things.

    • Expected click-through rateHow likely someone is to click your ad, based on how it has performed before.
    • Ad relevanceHow closely the wording of the ad matches what was actually searched for.
    • Landing page experienceWhether the page they land on is fast, relevant and easy to act on.

    Actually paid per click—£2.68

    They bid £6.00 and came second. You bid £4.00, ranked first, and paid £2.68 for the click, because your ad and your landing page were better. That gap is the whole job.

    Simplified: Google also applies rank thresholds, the context of the search and the expected impact of your ad assets. The mechanic above is the part that decides most auctions.

    How we keep your Bolton budget working

    01

    Choosing the searches

    We start with the services you want more of and the searches people use to find them. That covers Bolton and nearby towns like Horwich and Farnworth.

    02

    Blocking the waste

    Each month we check what people typed before clicking your ads, and block the searches that cost money without bringing work.

    03

    One ad per service

    Each service gets its own ads and its own landing page, so what people see matches what they searched for.

    04

    Reports you can check

    Your monthly report shows what you spent, the calls and forms that came in, and what each enquiry cost.
