Why Choose Google Ads Management with Gravitate?

Google Ads is an advertising platform that helps your website gain traction on Google, YouTube, and other partner platforms. Successful Google Ads management can drive leads, increase site traffic, and encourage conversions.

However, taking full advantage of this resource requires more than basic platform knowledge. It demands an understanding of audience behavior, market trends, and what drives conversions. Parenting with an SEM (Search Engine Marketing) agency makes it easy to find success on this essential search engine.

When selecting an SEM advertising agency, expertise in Google Ads and a dedication to transparency are crucial. We believe that successful agency-client partnerships rely on clear communication, data-driven strategies, and a clear ROI. Our clients across all industries trust Gravitate with their SEM campaigns and Google Ads management.

I've enjoyed the Gravitate team's conciseness and organization (and the results, too!) and would love the opportunity to work with you more.

Full-Spectrum Google Ads Management Services

Our comprehensive, full-spectrum Google Ads management services cover every aspect of a well-executed search campaign. We go beyond basic Google Ads management to outperform industry benchmarks. From the initial keyword research to post-release tracking, we are dedicated to crafting and maintaining your campaign.

Keyword Research and Competitor Analysis

Google Ads success begins with a competitive analysis of your business to build optimized keyword lists. We conduct thorough market research to identify high-value terms and long-tail keywords while finding opportunities to compete with underutilized keywords.

While we focus on high-traffic terms, we also consider the big picture of user behavior in your market. By staying ahead of industry and search behavior changes, we can proactively edit our strategy to take advantage of keyword opportunities.

Our keyword research and competitor analysis services make it easier to outrank your competitors and stay on top of search engines.

Ad Creation and Copywriting

Our tailored approach to copy establishes alignment with brand voice and audience appeal. Our ad copywriting team works with design to create impactful advertisements using keyword research as a baseline.

Our messaging is crafted with multiple variations to test different value propositions and calls to action for optimal performance.

Gravitate’s approach to end-to-end service—from ad copy creation to landing page optimization—ensures that your content is consistent and drives conversions across all avenues of your business.

Bid Management and Budget Optimization

Every cent of your ad budget should be used to drive a desirable ROI. Bid management automates the process of bidding for digital marketing campaigns. This allows for easy adjustments to your CPC (cost-per-click) throughout your campaigns.

Our custom and flexible bid management system adjusts to capture the most profitable clicks. We constantly monitor and optimize your campaigns to reduce wasted spending and improve cost-efficiency across all campaigns.

A/B Testing and Ad Variation

Continuous refinements drive long-term success. That’s why our team doesn’t stop optimizing after a campaign is released. We systematically test ads for engagement, conversions, and audience targeting to identify what resonates best with your ideal customer.

With this approach, we can create campaigns that become more effective over time. Our CRO (conversion rate optimization) strategy guarantees an increase in desired actions with a variety of ads and proactive A/B testing.

Landing Page Optimization

Great ads need great landing pages—webpages designed to encourage specific actions, such as signing up for a service or purchasing a product. While getting visitors to click on your landing page can be challenging, Google Ads, combined with on-page and technical SEO enhancements, can drive new and returning traffic.

Think of an ad as the first impression that gets people in the door, but the landing page must ensure they stay and convert. Our conversion rate optimization experts craft compelling value propositions, optimize conversion paths, and analyze every detail—from page speed and scroll depth to CTAs—to guide customers through the sales funnel.

With Gravitate, landing page optimization becomes a seamless part of the customer journey.

Conversion and ROI Tracking

We execute extensive campaign tracking to monitor every meaningful interaction—from the first click to the final conversion. Our rigorous tracking of key metrics, such as conversions, CPC (cost-per-click), and ROI allows us to understand the true value of your ad budget spent and how we spread your messaging across different channels and campaigns. ROI tracking is a valuable method to stay on top of spending and results-driven Google Ads.

Frequently Asked Questions

Rethink your digital marketing presence with expert Google Ads and SEM management. This comprehensive SEM agency FAQ answers all of our clients' most common questions before diving into a partnership with our Google Ads management services.

SEM stands for ‘search engine marketing.’ An SEM agency is a strategic partner that manages paid search marketing. They market every aspect of your ad campaigns across search engines. At Gravitate, we handle every aspect of search engine marketing—from keyword research to ongoing campaign maintenance.

Our Google Ads management process follows an approach rooted in data and analytics to maximize performance and keep our clients informed. Here’s the general process:

  1. We begin with a purposeful audit of our client’s business objectives, target audience, and industry market.
  2. Then we develop a custom strategy and ad campaign based on keyword research, your target audience, and budget.
  3. By executing cross-channel campaigns, we build traction across Search, Display, Gmail, YouTube, Discover, and Maps.
  4. Throughout the campaign, we continuously track performance to make any necessary adjustments. We use this data to create a bottom-of-the-funnel approach that targets engaged audiences ready to purchase. This complements organic search by using paid ads to take advantage of challenging keywords.

As you can see, Google Ads management extends beyond basic advertising services. We approach each campaign with meticulous care to find lasting success.

Professional SEM management can deliver faster, more accurate results when compared to in-house management methods. Gravitate’s dedicated SEM team has developed solid monitoring and reporting services that allow for constant improvements while a campaign is live. This attention required for long-term monitoring can be difficult to allocate in-house. Investing in SEM services makes digital advertising easier than ever—whether you’re looking to increase your relevancy with Google Ads or Microsoft Ads, increase conversions on your landing pages, or attract buyers on LinkedIn.

The investment in professional SEM services can vary based on campaign scope, complexity, and duration. Through years of experience and testing across diverse industries, we’ve developed solid strategies to utilize any budget size. We develop stylized proposals based on your business’ overarching needs. Reach out to discuss your SEM goals and we’ll develop a comprehensive plan of action.

Your SEM agency should be able to clearly define their strategy and the expected outcome with the data to back it all up. They should offer consistent reporting to keep you in the loop for potential strategy or budget changes. The right SEM agency is communicative and responsive, with team expertise and relevant certifications. Think of any consultation as a job interview—and you’re the hiring manager. Be sure to ask questions that impact your decision-making most.
