Service area first, then search terms, then the page. We group suburbs by drive time, for example Sandy Bay and Battery Point, Glenorchy and Moonah, Kingston and Blackmans Bay, and the eastern shore, so budget can move between groups.
Every week we read the list of searches that triggered your ads and add negative keywords, which are searches we block, such as job seekers. Emergency campaigns run only in hours someone answers, with call tracking.
Planned campaigns get longer pages naming the suburb and the licence. We count calls over a set length and completed forms, then mark which ones became jobs. SEO, Meta ads and landing pages sit alongside.
