What makes a good Google ad for an engineering firm?

A good engineering ad names the service, the area, what the client receives and a clear next step, in factual language. Google's responsive search ads allow 15 headlines of 30 characters and 4 descriptions of 90. Weak ads use superlatives such as "best engineers" or vague phrases such as "engineering solutions".

How should engineering ads connect to landing pages?

Each ad should lead to a page about the same service, with the same deliverables and next step. An ad promising a site visit this week should land on a page with a booking form and honest availability. Pages are covered on ad landing pages, keywords on Google Ads keywords, setup on Google Ads for engineering firms, messaging on sector positioning and proof on project portfolio.

ShoutEx rule

Promise only what your schedule allows.

"Site visit this week" must be true every week the ad runs.
