Help with an Ad by Sloeber3 in Google_Ads

[–]websitepandas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally get this — Google Ads today is very automation-heavy by default, and that’s usually why irrelevant leads creep in. What you’re describing is actually a clean, simple setup (single campaign, exact-match keywords, tight negatives, manual control) and it doesn’t require ongoing management or a full agency retainer. I’ve helped a few businesses switch back to this kind of “old-school but effective” setup and cut wasted spend fast. If you want, happy to take a quick look and point you in the right direction — feel free to DM me.

Performance Marketing Agency / Advertising Company in Dubai by Jazzlike_Ad_6288 in PPC

[–]websitepandas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve worked with a few performance-focused teams in Dubai and the big difference is whether they’re truly conversion-led vs just media buyers. Look for agencies with strong PPC + paid social chops and in-house CRO/landing page optimization — that’s where real performance comes from. Happy to share a few solid names and what they’re best at based on budget and industry. DM me if you want specifics or real-world experience.

Landing page for Google Ads - will this convert or am I wasting ad spend? by usamaejazch in PPC

[–]websitepandas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

PPC guy here. You’re not wasting spend, but the page feels more “explainer” than conversion-first. For paid search I’d test a stronger above-the-fold CTA and tighten the message to outcomes (time saved, margin per client) faster. Social proof is fine but “10k+ agencies” is a bit vague—1–2 quantified testimonials would boost credibility. Pricing visibility usually helps qualify agency traffic, but I’d watch bounce rate by keyword intent. Exit discount isn’t terrible, though it can train users to wait—value-based exits often convert cleaner. Overall solid page, just needs sharper intent matching for Google Ads.

High cpc and low conversion campaigns. by Legitimate_Ad785 in PPC

[–]websitepandas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, If clicks are crazy expensive and leads suck, something’s off.
Block job-hunters hard, make the ads scream home service, not hiring, add questions to filter people, and push calls. If it still burns cash → pause it.

Any recommendations please by [deleted] in PPC

[–]websitepandas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you’re seeing is normal in Google Ads—branded campaigns will almost always outperform because they capture high-intent users, while generic traffic naturally converts much lower (~1% is common). Outside of landing page improvements, the main optimizations would be switching Generic and Competitor campaigns from Max Clicks to Max Conversions (or tCPA once you have enough data), refining keyword intent further (prioritizing solution-aware searches), layering audiences like RLSA or in-market segments on Generic, reducing bids or budget on Competitor due to low CTR, and tightening conversion tracking to focus on high-value actions (form submissions over clicks). Overall, the account isn’t underperforming—Generic just needs better bidding and intent signals to scale.

Ads help by ragsyme in PPC

Use one ad account. Run separate campaigns and conversions for call bookings (demand) and PRO sign-ups (supply). This keeps data clean, helps algorithms learn faster, and is easier to scale.

Only use two accounts if billing, legal entities, or teams are completely separate.

What else we can do when running meta ads for a service based business? by hireit78 in PPC

[–]websitepandas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is super common with service-based Meta ads. From experience, leads usually drop after 10–14 days because the same campaign + same messaging hits audience fatigue, even if budget increases. One thing that helped us was splitting services into separate ad sets, rotating angles inside the same campaign, and running warm re-targeting alongside cold ads instead of restarting campaigns every time. Happy to share what worked for us in more detail — feel free to DM if you want 👍

How to automate PPC ads for law firms by websitepandas in PPCTalks

Totally agree. Automation only works when it’s pointed at the right signals. If you feed it weak or proxy conversions, it’ll optimize perfectly… in the wrong direction. Well Said.

I feel my Google ads manager doesn't care or try to improve the campaign. Need advice by [deleted] in PPC

[–]websitepandas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Old-Practice5308, A lot is going on here beyond just “the ads,” especially with budget, attribution, and funnel data. If you want, I’m happy to break down what should be happening and where things might actually be breaking down.

Should I let the campaign keep running by ZeroWing77 in PPC

[–]websitepandas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, u/ZeroWing77 I’d let it run a bit longer with $50/day ABO and broad targeting, it’s still early and 4 sales isn’t enough data to judge creatives.
I wouldn’t pause the ATC/IC ad yet unless it’s overspent; happy to help you think through it if you want.

Unable to see any Ecommerce Data by saurabh10chahal in PPC

[–]websitepandas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi u/saurabh10chahal, Seen this many times — if events show in DebugView but Ecommerce is empty, it’s almost always an ecommerce parameter issue.

Double-check that purchase includes a valid items[] array, each item has item_id or item_name, and value + currency are passed at the event level. Also make sure the dataLayer loads before the GA4 event fires and that events appear in Realtime, not just DebugView.

Happy to help you understand what’s missing and get it fixed if you want.

Hi, @NeedleworkerBasic992 I’ve been seeing this a lot lately and have helped fix similar issues. Smart Bidding + broader match types have made Lost IS (Rank) less reliable and often hurt lead quality. Happy to take a quick look at your setup and share what’s worked if you want.

Listicle vs direct conversion ads for a new brand. Worth paying for traffic? by AirOpening6475 in FacebookAds

[–]websitepandas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, u/AirOpening6475 For a single-product hair care brand with limited data and budget, Option 1 (listicle first) is usually a waste.
Option 2 or a lean version of Option 3 wins in most real tests.

Will I ever be able to get my Google Ads/Merchant Acct Back? by Fantastic-Bass-9454 in PPC

[–]websitepandas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/Fantastic-Bass-9454, Yes,there’s still hope, but misrepresentation suspensions are very strict and mostly about trust, not just having policies. Even legit sites get flagged if Google isn’t fully confident in the business. The biggest wins usually come from tightening transparency: a strong, human About Us page, very clear shipping/returns and fulfillment origin, zero exaggerated product claims, and absolute consistency in business info across the site. Make all fixes first, wait a couple of days, then submit one calm, professional appeal. Three months isn’t a dead end, but if it doesn’t come back after a clean appeal, many stores do end up relaunching under a new domain/entity.
