PPC burns money fast when tracking or targeting is off. Work starts with an audit. Then we set budgets with realistic expectations and manage search terms, ads, and audiences.
Hourly rate: £75. Most work starts with a fixed scope audit, then moves into clean-up and ongoing management if PPC fits.
Pick a route
- PPC audit and clean-up. Find waste, fix tracking gaps, improve structure, and tighten search terms.
- New account setup. Tracking, structure, keywords, ads, and landing page fit from day one.
- Ongoing management. Regular optimisation, reporting, and steady improvement.
Fit check
- PPC is a poor fit if margins are thin and conversion tracking is missing
- PPC is a poor fit if landing pages are slow, unclear, or not focused on one action
- PPC is a poor fit if you cannot answer calls, replies, or enquiries quickly
If PPC is not the right next step, an SEO or content plan usually is. See SEO and content.

FAQs
Is PPC worth it
PPC works when margins, tracking, and landing pages line up. The audit confirms fit before ongoing spend.
What do you need access to
Analytics, conversion tracking, and the ad account. If those tools are not in place, setup work comes first.
