Google Ads in Adur

Approval takes a day, and enquiries can follow the same week. The tidying takes longer. In a market this size the useful data arrives slowly, simply because there are fewer searches to learn from, so give it a few weeks before judging it. Clicks here average under eleven pounds.

Work back from the job rather than picking a monthly figure. The spread between the cheapest and the dearest trade here is wide enough that the trade you are in changes the answer more than anything else does. What matters is what one enquiry is worth to you and how many of them you convert.

They show where you tell them to, which is the point. Radius targeting round a postcode wastes money on places you would never drive to. We set the area to where you actually go, which from Adur usually reaches Lancing and Sompting, Shoreham-by-Sea.

You can, and around Adur you will get away with more than you would elsewhere. That is exactly why so many local accounts run for years with nobody noticing the waste: a light auction hides the search terms nobody reads and the targeting that quietly widened itself back out.

Across the trades we measure, 580 searches a month happen in Adur for services people are trying to buy locally. Every one of them ends with somebody ringing a business that is not necessarily yours.

Nothing will have changed hands, so the loss is ours rather than yours. In a market as lightly contested as Adur we rarely have to turn work down, but the analysis still comes first.

By count, construction is the biggest sector here, ahead of professional and technical services and retail. If you are in one of those you are in the crowded part of the market and the work is about separating yourself. If you are not, there is usually more room here than the size of the district suggests.
