PPC Management UK: Google and Microsoft Ads
Paid search is the fastest way to appear when someone in the UK types exactly what you sell, and also the fastest way to spend money on clicks that never become customers. Good PPC management UK advertisers can rely on comes down to three things: the right searches, the right places and a landing page that turns a visit into an enquiry. This page covers how we set those up and what it costs.

- Plans from $1,000 a month, month to month

Key takeaways
- Paid search works best when targeting matches the postcodes and counties you can genuinely serve.
- Negative keywords and tracked conversions protect the budget more than any bidding setting does.
- Across the UK, ad spend is billed apart from the management fee, and plans run month to month.
Where UK Ad Budgets Usually Leak
Competition in the auction is heavy. The Department for Business and Trade counted about 5.7 million private sector businesses in the UK at the start of 2025, and in most trades and professions many of them bid on the same handful of phrases. Budgets tend to leak in familiar places: broad match keywords with no negative list, a radius drawn around an office rather than the area actually served, and conversions that count page views instead of calls or forms.
Another common problem is sending every ad to the home page. Someone searching for an emergency electrician needs a page that shows a phone number and the areas covered, not a company history.
How We Build and Run Campaigns
A Google Ads agency UK businesses hire should be able to explain each part of the account in plain terms. Ours is built in this order.
Tracking First
Calls, forms, bookings and purchases are set up as conversions before launch, so bids learn from real enquiries.
Search Terms by Intent
Campaigns are split by service and urgency, with negative keywords cutting out job seekers, DIY searches and anything you do not offer.
Location Targeting
Postcode areas, counties or nations are chosen to match your delivery area, with bid adjustments where margins differ.
Landing Pages
Each campaign points to a page written for that search, and we test headlines, forms and calls to action over time.
Microsoft Ads
Once Google is stable, we often mirror the best campaigns into Microsoft Advertising, where costs can differ.
Seasons, Regions and Audience Size
The ONS estimated about 69.3 million people lived in the UK at mid-2024, but you only pay to reach the slice who might buy. Heating and roofing firms see enquiries jump with the first cold snap; retailers peak before Christmas and through the January sales; estate agents and lettings firms feel spring and late summer. We move budget between campaigns as those patterns arrive rather than spending evenly all year.
City and county pages explain how this plays out locally, including PPC in Manchester, PPC in Birmingham and PPC in Edinburgh. Trade firms can read about PPC for heating and cooling companies, and property businesses about PPC for estate agents.
Rules We Plan Around
UK ads are covered by the ASA and the CAP Code, and some sectors such as finance, health and legal services have extra rules on what an ad can say. We plan copy and landing pages with you so claims can be backed up, and we flag anything you should check with your own adviser or regulator.
Fees and Accounts
Management starts at US$1,000 a month on a rolling plan. There is no minimum term, and 7 days' written notice ends it. Your ad spend is billed separately from our fee, so you always see exactly what went to Google or Microsoft and what came to us.
Campaigns usually run from our ad accounts; if you already have an account with history worth keeping, we can work inside it instead. Landing pages, data and creative stay yours. A one-off account audit is quoted at a fixed price in writing. For a wider view of paid channels, see our UK advertising agency page, or the main PPC management page.

We run every account remotely and are now taking on advertisers anywhere in the UK, from single-site firms to national brands. The free growth audit is a no-obligation 30-minute call: we look at your search terms report, conversion setup, targeting and landing pages beforehand, then walk you through what we would cut, keep and test. Ask through the 'Get my free growth audit' button and we reply within 24 hours. More about the other services we offer British businesses is on our UK page.
