The services we usually run for local services ads

Local Services Ads: common questions

What is the difference between Local Services Ads and Google Ads?

Local Services Ads charge per lead and show a Google trust badge above all other results. Regular Google search ads charge per click and give you more control over keywords and landing pages. Most trades do best running both.

Can every business get Local Services Ads?

No. Google offers them only for certain categories in each country, and you must pass its checks. We confirm your category and requirements in the free audit.

Who owns the ad accounts, website and data?

You do. Your Google Ads account, Google Business Profile, analytics, website and content are in your name. We work inside them with access you can remove at any time.

Do you lock clients into long contracts?

No. We work month to month with 30 days notice. Website projects have a fixed scope and price.
