Google Ads

Search, Shopping, Performance Max and remarketing: we build the account structure, keep queries clean with negative lists and report on cost per enquiry.

What Google Ads setup and management includes

We take on the whole account: from campaign structure and the product feed to reporting on cost per enquiry. The ad account stays yours.

Search campaigns

Keywords built on how customers actually phrase things, ad groups kept homogeneous, several headline and description variants per group. Copy gets rewritten when CTR and conversion rate move apart.

SearchKeywordsAd copy

Shopping and Merchant Center

We connect and clean the feed: titles, GTIN, availability, price, shipping. Merchant Center disapprovals that keep products out of the auction get resolved rather than ignored.

ShoppingFeedGTIN

Performance Max under control

Brand terms excluded, asset groups split by category, placement reports reviewed. Without that the campaign simply absorbs demand you already had.

Performance MaxExclusionsAssets

Remarketing on Display and YouTube

Audiences by depth of interest: product page viewed, cart abandoned, visit with no enquiry. Different banners and different bids for each segment.

Negative keywords and query hygiene

Weekly review of the search terms report, negative lists at account and campaign level. It is the routine most often skipped, and it is what holds cost per enquiry down.

Conversions and reporting

Conversions configured and verified, offline data imported from the CRM where the system allows. The report shows cost per enquiry by campaign, not an account-wide average.

How we work with the account

Three rules we hold to, including when a fast result is tempting.

Broad match only with a negative list

Without one, a campaign collects queries within a week that you would never knowingly pay for. The list is prepared before launch and extended weekly.

Brand kept apart from everything else

Brand queries go into their own campaign and are excluded from the rest. Otherwise the report credits advertising with demand you already had.

No daily bid tinkering

Every abrupt change resets the algorithm's learning. Decisions are made on a period that has gathered enough conversions to mean something.

What systematic account management gives you

Google Ads forgives mistakes for exactly as long as you keep paying for them. A campaign built once and left alone gradually accumulates junk traffic: matching widens, competitors change their bids, and the feed drifts away from the website.

01

The account stays yours

Campaigns live in your own Google Ads and Merchant Center. Conversion history, audiences and trained bidding strategies remain with you if our work together ends.

02

We count enquiries, not clicks

Conversions are configured and checked by hand, and the report shows cost per enquiry by campaign. Impressions and CTR stay as background figures.

03

You can see what was actually done

Each month we hand over a change log: which groups were added, which queries excluded, which ad texts replaced and what that changed.

How we launch Google Ads

First we check whether the demand exists and whether the site can absorb it. Campaigns are built after that, not before.

01

Account and demand audit

We review existing campaigns, the search terms report and search volume for the keywords. The output states what we keep, what we rebuild and how much traffic the niche holds at all.

02

Building the structure

Campaigns and ad groups, copy matched to queries, negative lists, the feed and conversion tracking — all of it ready before the first impression, not patched together on live spend.

03

Launch and the learning period

We start and resist touching bids daily: the algorithm needs conversions to learn. Changes follow a week of data, not an impression formed on day one.

04

Optimisation and scaling

Weekly query cleanup, refreshed ad copy, budget moved into campaigns that bring enquiries. New campaign types are added once the core ones are stable.

Frequently asked questions about Google Ads

The questions that come up most often before we start.

01

What determines the advertising budget?

The click price in your sector, the number of searches per month, and how many conversions the campaign needs before the algorithm learns. We work those three figures out at the brief using keyword planner data, and if the budget is clearly too small we say so before launch.

02

Do you guarantee the top position and a set number of enquiries?

No. Position is decided by an auction every single time, and no agency controls it. A forecast of enquiry volume comes only after the first month, based on real data from the account.

03

We already have an account. Will you start from scratch?

It depends on its condition. Where a conversion history exists it is worth keeping and rebuilding the structure inside. Where conversions were set up incorrectly the history is unreliable anyway, and a clean start is simpler.

04

Does Performance Max replace search campaigns?

No. They are different instruments: search responds to a specific query, while Performance Max looks for similar users across Google's surfaces. Without search campaigns and brand exclusions it mostly harvests the easy conversions.

05

Do we need Merchant Center for a small catalogue?

If you sell physical products, yes — it is the main channel for a store. A feed can be built for a few dozen items, and the data requirements do not depend on catalogue size.

06

When do the first results appear?

Impressions and clicks from day one. Meaningful conclusions once the campaign has gathered enough conversions to learn, which in most sectors is week two or three. Rebuilding the structure earlier than that is guesswork.

07

An ad was disapproved. Is that permanent?

Usually not: most disapprovals concern wording or missing documents. It is harder when the restriction applies to the sector itself — then we explain which formats are permitted at all, and we do not promise to work around the rules.

08

Who owns the account and the data afterwards?

You do. Google Ads and Merchant Center accounts are registered to your company, you hold access from day one, and you can revoke ours yourself.

Google Ads setup and campaign management

Google Ads: what is decided inside the account

Search brings people who have already put their need into words. The rest depends on how the account is built: the campaign split, the keyword match types, and what the negative lists filter out. Adcore has worked with Google Ads since 2014, with campaigns run by in-house specialists.

Campaign types and when each fits

  • Search — the base for services and B2B: someone phrases a query, you answer.
  • Shopping — product listings with image and price, fed from Merchant Center.
  • Performance Max — one campaign across every Google surface. Risky without brand exclusions.
  • Display Network — banners on partner sites: dependable in remarketing, rarely on cold traffic.
  • YouTube video — demand that has not reached search yet, measured in conversions rather than clicks.

Account structure and negative keywords

Campaigns are split by what you steer separately: brand, service lines or product categories, geography, remarketing. The search terms report is then read weekly: it feeds the negative lists and turns up queries nobody predicted.

Merchant Center for stores

The feed is the foundation of Shopping and Performance Max. Title, GTIN, availability, price and shipping have to match the site exactly. A price mismatch quietly drops the product from the auction; in the account that shows up only as fewer impressions.

The symptom in the account and its usual cause

What you seeWhat is usually behind it
plenty of clicks, no enquiriesbroad match without a negative list, traffic from adjacent queries
Performance Max eats the whole budgetbrand terms are not excluded, so it claims conversions you had anyway
half the catalogue never shows in ShoppingMerchant Center disapprovals: site price differs from the feed, no GTIN
expensive clicks on generic keywordsone ad text serving a group of unrelated queries, so relevance is low

When not to order Google Ads

If your niche has almost no search demand — a new service nobody has words for yet — the budget goes on adjacent queries. Paid social works earlier there.

We also decline when the site cannot take the traffic: no form or cart, outdated prices. And when the arithmetic fails: the margin on a sale is below the click price times a realistic conversion rate. That sum is done before launch, not after three months.

How this differs from our neighbouring services

This page covers work inside the Google Ads account: campaign types, the feed, negative keywords, ad quality. Choosing the paid channel mix belongs on the paid traffic page; social platforms are a separate service.

Who we work with
