Why Google Local Service Ads Are a Game-Changer
Google Local Service Ads (LSAs) are pay-per-lead ads that appear above the 3-Pack and even above paid search ads. For home service businesses (plumbers, electricians, HVAC, etc.), LSAs can be a lead generation goldmine.
Key benefits:
✅ Higher visibility – Appear at the very top of Google.
✅ Pay only for leads – No clicks, just booked calls/jobs.
✅ Google-guaranteed badge – Builds instant trust.
But how do you set them up for maximum conversions? Let’s break it down.
Step 1: Eligibility & Application
- Available for home services, legal, and healthcare.
- Must pass Google’s screening (background checks, license verification).
Step 2: Optimizing Your LSA Profile
- Business Name & Categories: Be specific (e.g., “Emergency Plumber” vs. “Plumbing Services”).
- Service Areas: Target high-demand ZIP codes.
- Photos & Reviews: Showcase real jobs and happy clients.
Step 3: Bidding & Budgeting Strategies
- Set a competitive weekly budget (start with $500-$1,000/month).
- Adjust bids based on lead quality (raise bids for high-intent keywords).
- Use negative keywords to filter out irrelevant searches.
Pro Tips to Maximize Conversions
✔ Respond to leads within 5 minutes (faster = higher ranking).
✔ Collect Google reviews (more reviews = better positioning).
✔ Track lead quality in Google’s dashboard.
