Questions owners ask

How does Google Ads charge?

For each visitor. You pay when someone clicks your ad and comes to your website, not when the ad shows. What a visitor costs is set by an auction between the businesses advertising on that search.

Why does a visitor cost so much more for some trades?

Because a job is worth more. An emergency plumber's call-out can be worth hundreds of dollars, so plumbers bid more for each visitor than a hairdresser does for a cut. More businesses bidding on the same search also pushes what a visitor costs up.

Is the price the same everywhere in Adelaide?

No. These are Adelaide-wide numbers. The price in your suburb, for the exact words your customers use, can be higher or lower. That's what the free check shows you.

Do I need Google Ads at all?

Not always. Some searches are cheap to win with a good page and your Google listing alone. The free check shows which of your searches are worth paying for, and which you can win without ads.

Where do these numbers come from?

Google's own Keyword Planner data, for searches in Adelaide, November 2026. For each trade we took three searches ("plumber near me", "plumber adelaide", "plumber") and show the middle of what a visitor costs on each (Google calls it cost per click).
