A landing page is the second half of every paid search campaign. We design and build them ourselves so the page, the ad and the keyword are written by the same team for the same intent. Pages are mobile-first, load in under two seconds, and track every call, form and chat back to the campaign that produced it. For PPC clients the pages are included in management. For everyone else they are quoted per page or per program.
Why the agency running the ads should build the pages
When a web company builds the page and an agency runs the traffic, nobody owns the conversion rate. The page gets built once, the ad gets changed weekly, and the two drift apart. We have taken over dozens of accounts where the highest-spending campaign was landing on a page written for a different service.
Because we run the ads, we know exactly which search terms are arriving and what those people expect to see. The headline matches the query. The offer matches the ad. The form asks for what the sales team needs and nothing more.
What a PPC landing page needs that a website page doesn't
- One job. No main navigation, no footer full of links, one action.
- The headline answers the search. If they typed "same-day AC repair," those words are in the H1.
- A sticky call button on mobile. Most local service leads call; the number must be one tap away at every scroll depth.
- Trust in the first screen. Reviews, licenses, years, guarantees, awards and badges that are genuinely yours.
- Local proof. City name, service area, real address, real photos.
- Speed. Under two seconds on a phone on a cellular connection. Google prices slow pages higher.
- Tracking that survives. Call tracking, form tracking and chat tracking wired through Tag Manager and verified weekly.
Local variants for every market
For multi-location and franchise clients we build one proven template and generate a variant per market, each with the local number, address, reviews and service list. Structure and messaging stay consistent; the details change. We have run this across hundreds of locations for a single brand. Franchise marketing.
How we test
Every page starts with a hypothesis and a baseline. We rotate headlines, offers, form length and hero treatment against real lead quality, not just form fills, because a page that doubles submissions with junk leads is a loss. Winners become the new baseline. Tests and results are logged in the monthly report.
What it costs
Included in PPC management for accounts we run. Standalone pages and multi-page or franchise template programs are quoted after a short call. Build times are one to two weeks for a single page, longer for programs. Pricing.
