OUR SERVICE

Google Ads Management Profit, Not Just Clicks.

Many accounts spend a large share of their budget on searches that were never going to convert. We restructure around intent, track revenue properly, and spend every dollar where it returns one.

Paid search in Australia is crowded and priced accordingly. The advertisers who stay profitable are not the ones bidding hardest — they are the ones measuring properly, excluding the searches that never convert, and holding every campaign to a cost per sale they can defend.

We manage Google Search, Shopping, Performance Max and YouTube alongside Facebook and LinkedIn campaigns, and have been doing it for Australian businesses since 2009 from our St Marys office in Western Sydney.

The challenge

Where Your Ad Budget Is Leaking

Google Ads rarely fails because of bad creative. It fails because of loose targeting, broken measurement and automation left to guess.

Challenge 01

Paying For The Wrong Searches

Broad match and neglected negative keyword lists pull in research traffic and job seekers.

You are billed for every one of those clicks at the same rate as a ready buyer.

Explore the fix
Challenge 02

Conversion Tracking Is Broken

Duplicate conversions, counted page views and missing offline sales feed the algorithm bad data.

Google then optimises confidently toward the wrong outcome.

Explore the fix
Challenge 03

Automation Left Unsupervised

Performance Max and Smart Bidding work well, but only inside clear constraints.

Without exclusions and clean signals they quietly drift toward cheap, low-value traffic.

Why Orka Digital

Our Edge In Paid Search

Three operating principles that keep a paid search account accountable to your P&L.

We Report Profit, Not Leads

Cost per lead is easy to flatter. We track lead quality through to closed revenue, so a cheaper lead that never buys is never counted as a win.

Learn more

Full Account Transparency

The Google Ads account stays in your name and your ownership. You see the real spend, the real fees, and you keep everything if we ever part ways.

Structured Testing, Not Tinkering

Every change is a documented test with a hypothesis and a measurement window, so you always know what caused a shift in performance.

Our Google Ads Process for Profitable Spend

Measure correctly, restructure around intent, then optimise weekly. Paid search rewards discipline far more than cleverness.

Phase 01

Account & Tracking Audit

We review structure, search terms, bidding and quality scores, then verify every conversion action actually measures what it claims to.

Phase 02

Competitor Auction Analysis

We assess impression share, ad messaging and landing pages of the advertisers you lose auctions to, and where their positioning is weak.

Phase 03

Restructure & Forecast

Campaigns are rebuilt around intent and margin, with a forecast of realistic cost per acquisition at each budget level.

Phase 04

Launch & Test

New structure goes live with clean tracking, fresh creative and matched landing pages, tested systematically.

Phase 05

Weekly Optimisation

Search term mining, negative keywords, bid adjustments and budget reallocation toward whatever is returning best.

Measured in revenue

Every dollar accounted for.

Paid search is the easiest channel to measure honestly and the easiest to flatter. We report the numbers that affect your bank balance.

Return On Ad Spend

Revenue tracked back to each campaign, divided by what that campaign cost.

Reported: weekly
02

Cost Per Acquisition

What each lead or sale costs, measured against the target agreed with you.

Get in Touch

For most Australian service businesses, around $2,000 to $3,000 per month in ad spend is the point where there is enough data to optimise meaningfully. Below that, campaigns take too long to learn and the management fee becomes a large share of total investment.

No. We charge a flat monthly management fee, because a percentage model rewards an agency for recommending higher spend regardless of whether it is profitable. Your ad budget is paid directly to Google.

You do, always. We work inside your account under manager access. If the engagement ends you keep the account, the campaign history, the conversion data and all the learning that sits behind it.

Restructured campaigns usually show improved efficiency within two to four weeks. Smart Bidding needs roughly four to six weeks of clean conversion data to stabilise, so we generally judge a restructure properly at the sixty-day mark.

Often yes, but only with guardrails. Performance Max works well when conversion tracking is accurate, brand terms are excluded and audience signals are deliberate. Left at defaults it tends to absorb budget into cheap traffic and take credit for sales you would have made anyway.

That is the common case, and usually good news — it means the easy gains are still available. We audit first and tell you honestly whether the account is worth repairing or faster to rebuild, along with what each option costs.
