Local service ads help build credibility for your business
Local Service Ads (LSAs) are a great way for businesses to reach their target audience in a local area and drive leads. LSAs are shown for searches related to local services, like “plumber near me” or “tutoring services.”
LSAs help businesses stand out from the competition in local search results. The ads are prominently placed in search results and appear before other organic results, giving your business an advantage.
LSAs are an effective tool for businesses to generate leads in their local area. LSAs are targeted to customers who are actively searching for the services you offer, so you know you’re reaching the people who are most likely to be interested in what you have to offer.
LSAs allow us to show your reputable business to those who are interested in your products or services at a specific moment.

The short answer is no. If you move money from your Google Ads to Local Service Ads, your website traffic will go down because they’re interacting with that and not the website. So you might see an increase in leads but a decrease in website traffic.
LSAs don't run all month long, so it's important to have both LSAs and Google Ads to succeed.
In this digital age, it's vital to invest in Omni-Channel Marketing, which keeps customers informed and engaged with your brand, products, and services, regardless of where they see your brand.
Omni-channel marketing is the best way to meet your goals because it allows us to interact quickly with potential clients and influence them to choose your business.
The most common reason for not getting leads from LSAs is because your bids are too low. If your budget is low, it can put your listing further down the page below your competitors. Even if you didn't lower your bid, it's possible a competitor has raised their bid, so they outrank you.
But the good news is if your ad doesn't spend, the amount will roll over to the next month!
In order to be a good candidate for LSAs, you need to have all of your ducks in a row. Google will only approve certain business industries, and they also require a background check, liability insurance, proper licenses, and a minimum of 5 Google reviews.
