Google Ads Wellington

A Google Ads agency in Wellington that charges a flat fee.

Most Google Ads management is priced as a percentage of your ad spend, which means the agency earns more every time your budget goes up, whether or not the leads do. We charge a flat $250 a month excluding GST. Your ad budget goes straight to Google, and you can see every dollar of it in your reporting dashboard.

We run Google Ads accounts for New Zealand businesses from our office at 22 Downer Street in Hutt Central, Lower Hutt. If you used Google AdWords years ago and gave up on it, the platform has changed a great deal since. The principle has not: pay for clicks from people who are already looking for what you sell.

That is why we keep budgets on Google Text Ads and Shopping, where buying intent lives, and leave display banners on random websites alone.

Targeting greater Wellington

Google Ads targeting that matches where you can deliver.

A trades or services business is better off owning greater Wellington, from Porirua to the Kāpiti Coast, than being faintly visible everywhere in the country. If you ship nationwide or sell online, we target nationally and let the bidding find the regions that convert. Plenty of clients run both, split by campaign.

Inside the region, location matters more than most people expect. A search for a service in Lower Hutt behaves differently from the same search in Te Aro, and the bidding treats them differently.

Bids by location, device and time

Bids adjust continuously by keyword, device, time of day and location, so budget follows the searches that turn into work.

Search terms pruned continuously

Wasted search terms are cut out of the account continuously, so the bidding learns from buyers rather than browsers.

Only the areas you serve

Campaigns are built around the places you will actually drive to, so you are not paying for clicks from customers you cannot reach.

How AI management works

AI bidding, with people deciding what winning looks like.

Google's bidding models price every auction using signals no person can weigh in real time. Feed them clean conversion data and they beat manual bidding comfortably. Feed them nothing useful and they spend your money confidently in the wrong direction, which is why the real work sits upstream of the algorithm.

  1. 1

    Free audit and setup

    We audit your existing account free, keep what is working, and rebuild campaigns around buying-intent keywords. You keep ownership of the account either way.

  2. 2

    Conversions defined first

    We set what counts as a conversion, and what it is worth, before the model starts bidding. A call from a job worth $5,000 should not count the same as a newsletter sign-up.

  3. 3

    AI bidding

    Bids are reallocated continuously toward the keywords and products that convert.

  4. 4

    Clean data back to Google

    We check that the data flowing back to Google reflects genuine enquiries rather than form bounces, so the bidding is learning from the right thing.

  5. 5

    Human strategy every month

    Our team reviews direction monthly and explains it in plain English: spend, leads and cost per lead, all in your dashboard.

Campaign types

Text Ads and Shopping. No wasted display spend.

For most New Zealand service and product businesses, display spend buys impressions rather than customers. So we put the budget where people are actively searching.

Search Text Ads

For service businesses: the ads above the organic results when someone searches for the job you do in the place you do it.

This is where a trades business, a clinic or a professional firm in Wellington wins most of its paid leads.

Google Shopping

For retailers and eCommerce: product listings with the price and picture in the results, for people ready to buy.

Shopping relies on clean product data, which is why it sits naturally alongside our Shopify builds.

Reported in one place

Spend, leads and cost per lead, live in your dashboard rather than a PDF three weeks after the month ends.

When something changes, you hear about it from the person managing the account.

Ads and SEO together

Google Ads now, SEO underneath it.

When the enquiries are needed this month rather than next quarter, Google Ads is the answer, because paid search can bring clicks from the day the campaign is approved. SEO is slower, and cheaper per lead once it lands. It also keeps working after you stop paying.

Most clients run ads while the organic side builds, then rebalance as rankings arrive. The search terms report from your ads account is one of the best keyword research sources there is, so the two feed each other.

A landing page that converts

A click is only worth paying for if the page it lands on is fast and makes the next step obvious. See web design in Wellington.

Organic growth alongside

Link building and content raise the rankings that eventually replace some of the paid clicks. See SEO in Wellington.

Proof in the numbers

Every engagement starts with the number we are trying to move. See how we measure on the case studies page.

Where we work

Google Ads for businesses across the region.

We manage accounts for businesses all over New Zealand, and we are close enough to most Wellington clients to sit down with the account on a laptop.

Wellington city

Professional services, hospitality and retail, where competition for every click is stiff and tight keyword lists matter most.

Lower Hutt and Petone

Where our office is. Trades and showrooms that only want calls from within a set radius, so the campaign is targeted by location and ad schedule as well as by keyword.

Upper Hutt

Home services working the length of the valley, where location bidding keeps the budget on jobs worth driving to.

Porirua and Kāpiti

Fast growing areas where a campaign split by location can win local searches without paying for clicks from people you cannot serve.
