PPC Management for Small Businesses Wales

PPC campaigns that aren't managed
are just money leaving your account.

When someone in Cardiff searches “electrician near me”, when a Swansea homeowner types “loft conversion quote”, or when a Wrexham business owner looks for local services, the ads at the top of the results get the calls. Small business Google Ads Wales campaigns put you there immediately, while SEO builds in the background.

The difference between campaigns that drive enquiries and campaigns that drain budget is management. Tight keyword targeting. A negative keyword list that actually gets maintained. Conversion tracking in place before a penny is spent. Ad copy tested properly instead of set and forgotten. Bids reviewed on the basis of real data, not left to drift.

I manage campaigns personally for a small number of businesses across Wales, from Cardiff to Neath and from Newport to Wrexham. Every account gets the same level of attention. Every month you get a plain-English report on what was spent, what it produced, and exactly what I'm doing next.

The difference

Managed well
= enquiries.

The same ad budget, managed properly versus left to run, can produce a completely different result. Most accounts I audit have the same fixable problems.

What I Actually Do

What PPC management actually involves

Running paid search is an ongoing job, not a one-off setup. Here's what I manage for small businesses in Wales and what each part does.

Search Campaign Management

Search ads appear when someone actively types in what you offer. A plumber in Newport. A solicitor in Cardiff. A kitchen fitter in Swansea. I manage your Search campaigns with tight keyword targeting, correct match types, and ad copy that's tested and refined over time. Every click that comes through is qualified and tracked back to a real enquiry.

Right for

Small Welsh service businesses that want to appear in front of active buyers at the exact moment they search.

Shopping Campaign Management

For product-based businesses, Shopping campaigns show your image, price, and business name directly in search results before anyone clicks through. I manage your product feed, structure campaigns around performance data, and push budget toward your highest-converting lines. No black-box automation — every decision is deliberate.

Right for

Welsh small businesses and retailers who want product visibility at the point of purchase intent.

Ongoing Optimisation & Reporting

Running small business Google Ads Wales campaigns is not a set-and-forget task. Bids change, search trends shift, and competitors adjust. I review and optimise your campaigns on a regular schedule, cutting what wastes money, scaling what works, and keeping a tight negative keyword list so budget goes to buyers, not browsers.

Right for

Any small business in Wales already spending on Google Ads that wants proper management rather than a campaign that runs itself into the ground.

Why Most Ads Fail

Most small business PPC accounts waste money. Here's why.

PPC is one of the fastest ways to put your Wales business in front of buyers. But most small business accounts are set up badly and left to run: wrong keywords, no negative list, weak landing pages, and no conversion tracking.

I've audited affordable PPC Wales campaigns spending £500, £1,000, even £2,000 a month with very little return. Every time, the platform is not the problem. The management is. Fix the foundations and results follow.

Common mistakes I fix

Bidding on broad match keywords that attract the wrong traffic
No negative keyword list: paying for clicks that will never convert
Sending all ad traffic to the homepage instead of a relevant landing page
No conversion tracking: no idea if ads are generating real enquiries
Set-and-forget campaigns: never tested, never optimised

What I do instead

Tight keyword match types, a negative keyword list built before a campaign goes live, dedicated landing pages, and conversion tracking set up from day one. Every month I review the data and cut what's wasting budget.

Every decision is data-driven. Every pound is accountable.

Bid adjustments, keyword decisions, ad cuts — all based on real performance data from your account.

What You Get

Everything your campaigns need. Nothing you don't.

Every PPC management small business Wales retainer with BLACKdot includes the following as standard.

Conversion tracking from day one

Before a single campaign goes live, tracking is set up for calls, form submissions, and key page actions. You'll know which clicks turn into real enquiries — not just impressions.

Keyword research and match type strategy

I research the search terms your Wales customers actually use and structure campaigns with the right match types. Budget targets buyers, not people browsing for something else.

Negative keyword management

A maintained list of searches your ads should never appear for. Without it, budgets drain fast on irrelevant traffic. I build this list before launch and update it throughout the retainer.

Regular bid optimisation

Bids are reviewed and adjusted based on what the data shows. Not set once and left to drift. Frequency depends on your plan: weekly on Starter, three times a week on Growth, daily on Authority.

Ad copy testing

Multiple ad variants run in parallel. The ones that generate enquiries get more budget. The underperformers get cut or rewritten. A continuous process, not a one-off task.

Monthly plain-English reports

Every month: what was spent, what it produced, cost per lead, and what I'm adjusting next. No graphs that don't connect to your business goals.

Why BLACKdot

Why Wales businesses choose us for PPC management

Managed personally

I manage a small number of accounts personally. You'll always deal with the person who actually runs your campaigns — not an account manager who hands the work to someone junior.

Conversion tracking as standard

Every campaign has conversion tracking in place before it goes live. You'll know which clicks turned into actual enquiries — not just which ones happened.

10+ years experience

Over a decade running paid search campaigns across service businesses, retailers, and SMEs. I know what wastes PPC budget and what drives enquiries.

Plain-English reporting

Monthly reports that tell you what was spent, what it produced, and what I'm doing next. No jargon, no dashboards full of metrics that don't connect to your business.

How It Works

From brief to live campaigns

Audit or build

If you're already running small business Google Ads Wales campaigns, I audit the account first and identify where budget is being wasted. Starting from scratch? I research your market, competitors, and the search terms your customers use. Conversion tracking is installed and verified before anything goes live.

Campaign structure

I build campaigns with the right keywords, the right match types, and a thorough negative keyword list based on the research. The foundations determine how well everything performs. Not a single pound is spent until they're right.

Launch and early optimisation

Campaigns go live and I monitor closely in the first two weeks. Early performance data tells me what's converting and what's not. Bids are adjusted from the start — not after a month of wasted spend.

Ongoing management and reporting

Every month you get a plain-English report: what was spent, what it produced, cost per lead, and what I'm changing next. I track the metrics that matter to your Wales business: enquiries, not impressions.

Enquiry-focused management. Not click-focused.

Every plan tracks conversions, not just impressions. You'll know exactly what your ad spend is producing.

Common Questions

Things small businesses in Wales ask about PPC management

PPC management small business Wales campaigns need consistent time and expertise. Keyword research, match types, negative keywords, bid optimisation, and ad copy testing all need ongoing attention. Most business owners set campaigns up once and let them run, and budget quietly leaks.

Faster than SEO. Campaigns can appear in front of buyers the same day they go live. Most clients see enquiries within the first week, with stronger efficiency from month two once optimisation data builds.

No. You fund your Google Ads account directly and every penny goes to Google. My management fee is fixed and published on this page. It doesn't change based on how much you spend. No markup, no percentage, no hidden fees.

Yes. I start with a full audit to identify where budget is being wasted — wrong keywords, missing negatives, poor match types, no conversion tracking. Then I fix the foundations and manage going forward. Most new clients are surprised at how much was being wasted.

For most small business Search campaigns, a minimum of £300-£500/month in ad spend is a sensible starting point. Below that, there usually is not enough data to optimise confidently.

No. I ask for an initial three-month commitment so campaigns have time to be set up, launched, and properly optimised. After that, it's 30 days' notice. No 12-month lock-ins, no exit fees.
