Why paid search for Home Inspection in Australia

Context from how your customers search, compare and book in Australia.

Home Inspection buyers book through an Australian number and a short form. Proof that converts here is Google reviews, ABN, and licence details on the page. Slow replies lose the job to Hipages, Oneflare, and Google Business Profile. Reporting is in A$ (AUD); GST at 10% belongs in the unit economics.

Paid search is how Home Inspection buys the click while organic is still moving. The leak is DIY, job-seeker and out-of-area traffic billed as if it were "home inspector near me" in Australia.

We split campaigns by intent: emergency "home inspector near me", price "pre purchase home inspection", and brand defence. Ad groups follow how buyers buy, not one pile of keywords in Australia.

Landing pages must match the ad. A generic homepage after a high-intent click is how home inspection SEM accounts burn budget with a decent CTR in Australia.
