// In short

Is Google Ads the right place to advertise?

Choose Google Ads when people already search for your service, such as plumbers, clinics, lawyers, removals or B2B services, and you want enquiries from those searches. If people don’t search for what you sell yet, Facebook, Instagram or TikTok ads build demand better; if your tracking is unreliable, Ad Tracking Setup comes first. MD Shamim Mahmud manages Google Ads with conversion tracking, weekly search-term clean-up and reports that separate spend, platform results and confirmed enquiries.

// Who it’s for

Who Google Ads works for

Google Ads works when there is search demand: people typing what you sell, ready to act.

  • People search for your service

    Searches like “emergency plumber near me” or “bookkeeping for small business”.

  • Ads are wasting money

    Clicks come from irrelevant searches and nobody checks the search terms.

  • Calls aren’t tracked

    You can’t tell which keywords or ads bring calls and forms.

  • You’re starting from zero

    You want a lean, well-tracked campaign before spending more.

// What’s included

What management includes

Both plans include these. Ad spend is paid by you directly to the platform; creative production beyond briefs is separate.

  • Accounts in your name

    Ad account, pixel and billing stay yours; I work with partner access.

  • Tracking first

    Conversions, GA4 and offline or chat signals set up before spending.

  • Research

    Audience, keyword or interest research based on your customers.

  • Ad copy & briefs

    Headlines, text and creative briefs for every campaign.

  • Campaign build

    Structure, budgets, bidding and placements set up properly.

  • Weekly optimisation

    Budgets, targeting and ads adjusted every week.

  • Search-term clean-up

    Irrelevant searches blocked with negative keywords every week.

  • Call & form tracking

    Calls from ads and your site counted as conversions.

  • Landing page check

    The page or chat the ad sends people to, reviewed for fit.

  • Monthly report

    Spend, platform-reported results and confirmed enquiries, separately.

Google Ads or Facebook Ads?

Google catches people already searching; Facebook and Instagram reach people before they search. Many businesses use both.

// FAQ

Google Ads questions

What business owners ask before handing over their ads.

Still have a question? Ask me directly

How much does Google Ads management cost?

Management starts from $249 a month (ad spend up to $2,000/month) and $449 a month (ad spend up to $6,000/month) (USD), about 30% below what comparable freelancers typically charge. Ad spend is paid directly to the platform from your own account and is separate from my fee.

How do payments work?

Each month is paid upfront, with an invoice and a receipt. Setup and tracking are included in the first month, there is no setup fee, and you can stop with 30 days’ notice.

Is ad spend included in your fee?

No. Ad spend goes straight from your card to the platform, in your own ad account. My fee covers the setup, management and reporting.

Can you guarantee leads or sales?

No one honestly can. Results depend on your offer, price, budget and market. What I make sure of is clean tracking, sensible campaigns and honest reports, so you can see what your money brings in.

How much should I spend on Google Ads?

It depends on cost per click in your market. For many local services, $500–$2,000 a month is a sensible test budget. I’ll estimate it from real keyword data before you start.

Do you use Performance Max?

Where it fits. For most service businesses, search campaigns come first because they’re easier to control and measure.

How do you report results?

Every month you see three things side by side: what you spent, what the platform reports, and the enquiries or sales you confirm. Platform numbers alone can over- or under-count.

Paying for clicks that don’t call back?

Send your website and, if you have one, access to your Google Ads account. I’ll reply with what I’d fix first.
