Intent, not just keywords
A search for advice is different from a search to book a service. We group terms around that distinction, review actual search queries and maintain negatives to reduce irrelevant clicks.

SHARP LYNX / Marketing services
Capture people actively searching for what you sell, at a cost that makes sense.
What this means for your business
Search advertising puts your business in front of someone already looking for an answer. The work is choosing which searches are worth paying for, giving those visitors a relevant page and checking whether the resulting calls or forms turn into business.
Often a good starting point for businesses with existing search demand and a clear service or product. A small audience, low margin or weak offer can make paid search difficult even with a well-built account.

Broad match keywords pulling in irrelevant searches.
Ads sending traffic to a homepage instead of a focused landing page.
Conversion tracking that counts page views as wins.
The decisions behind the work
01
A search for advice is different from a search to book a service. We group terms around that distinction, review actual search queries and maintain negatives to reduce irrelevant clicks.
02
The ad and landing page should answer the same question. We check that visitors can find the offer, understand the next step and contact you easily on a phone.
03
Search provides useful control. Shopping or Performance Max may add value when feeds, creative and conversion data support them. We do not add a campaign type simply because it is available.
Our approach
01
Tightly themed campaigns aligned to intent, with negative keyword control.
02
Used where it fits, with clean asset groups and audience signals, never as a black box.
03
Commercial-intent research mapped to offers and landing pages.
04
Dedicated pages that match the search and remove friction.
05
Calls, forms and offline conversions tracked through Google Tag Manager.

A practical start
Clear access, current information and agreed responsibilities keep the work moving. We confirm the requirements before the project begins.

Measurement, not guesswork
Calls and form submissions are starting points. Where your systems allow it, qualified leads and sales are fed back into measurement. Changes in demand, competition and attribution settings can affect comparisons between periods.
