Birmingham / Google Ads

Birmingham Google Ads built around ROAS, not dashboards

We manage Google Ads for Birmingham ecom brands and West Midlands service businesses. Search, Shopping, Performance Max. £500/month + 10% of ad spend.

Birmingham CPCs are reasonable. Most accounts still waste half the budget

Birmingham CPCs sit in a sweet spot — lower than London, higher than rural. Which means there’s room for lean accounts to print money. The problem is most Birmingham Google Ads accounts we audit are running broad match on everything, no negatives, and Performance Max eating brand searches.

A typical Birmingham ecom brand on £2,500/month Google Ads is probably wasting £600-£900. A local Birmingham service business on £1,500 might be bidding on intent that never converts. More budget won’t save those accounts — proper structure will.

We rebuild accounts from conversion tracking up. Server-side where possible. Clean campaign separation. Tight match types. Weekly search term reviews. Smart Bidding fed with actual data.

How we structure Birmingham accounts

01. Conversion tracking rebuild. Fix tracking before fixing anything else. Enhanced conversions, server-side GTM, CAPI where applicable.
02. Campaign restructure. Brand / non-brand Search / Shopping / Pmax — separate campaigns, separate budgets. Brand ring-fenced from Pmax.
03. Keyword cleanup. Exact and phrase match. Negative keyword lists layered in from day one. Broad match only where Smart Bidding has enough data to justify it.
04. Landing page alignment. Ad copy must match landing page. If they don’t, your Quality Score tanks and CPCs climb. We flag misaligned pages and fix the copy or build new pages.
05. Weekly optimisation. Search term review, bid adjustments, creative rotation. Plain English reporting monthly.

Ecom and local, different plays

Birmingham ecom brands live on Shopping and Pmax. We integrate with Shopify’s Google channel or Merchant Center, optimise product feeds, and run Pmax with brand exclusions.

Birmingham local service businesses run tight Search campaigns. Geo-targeting to the West Midlands. Call extensions and form fill tracking. Landing pages matched to each ad group. Call tracking via Google Forwarding Numbers so we know which ad drove which call.
