Get The Google Guaranteed Google Local Service Ads here.
What are Google Guaranteed Local Service Ads?
Get Google Guaranteed with Google Local Service Ads! These ads launched UK-wide in 2021 and offer you a position ABOVE the better known Google Search Ads at the top of Google search. It’s a new and ideal way to reach your customers in your local area. Plus, it’s not cost per click based; instead, you only pay when you get a genuine lead! So to earn yourself a Google Guarantee badge, jump to the top of the search engine results page and pay only for the calls you get – give it a go!
You can control the times your ads appear – so you only get calls when someone is there to answer them. Plus, you can display open hours, reviews, logos, images and unique selling points.
These ads will appear on all devices, including voice search (Alexa or Siri). Unlike other Google Ads, they don’t need much management or optimisation – Google AI does it all for you! Simply set a weekly budget (which Google will help you set) and watch the calls come in. See more on how it works here.

Google Local Service Ads appear at the top of the search engine results page, but this space is limited as follows:
– Up to 3 Local Service Ads will appear on a desktop.
– Up to 2 Local Ads will appear on mobile devices.
– Only 1 Local Service Ad will appear via voice search on Google Assistant.
To ensure your listing is ranked highly to appear on top more, you are ranked on the following factors:
Your business hours.
How near your address is to the searcher’s location.
Your review star rating and how many reviews you have.
How quickly do you respond to customers.
Any complaints you’ve received.
Yes and no. As long as a Job classification suits your business, you are eligible. See a complete list of categories below. But, because this is a new type of Ad from Google, it’s still limited to selected “service” sectors within the United Kingdom, so you may find there is no relevant one for you yet. However, fear not – Google is launching new “service areas” and locations all the time!

This Is Why Google’s Local Service Ads Are Worth It!
If you want a cost-effective, easy to set up and easy to run advertising method that sits at the top of Google, then Google Local Service Ads are worth it! As long as you fit within one of their category classifications above, you can start taking complete control of your weekly and monthly budgets and get significant cost per lead growth!
1. Only Pay Per Lead
Pay per click advertisers pays for clicks regardless of whether they convert and make contact or not. With Local Service Ads, you only get charged for actual leads (calls, messages), and you set your cap on how much you want to spend for them. Plus, you don’t get charged for unanswered calls, and you can dispute any fraudulent, spam, duplicate or poorly matched leads in exchange for a credit back.
2. Get Verified For A Google Guarantee Badge

There are a few verifications to complete under the “Business Verification” tab, and it will take a few days to be approved, but it’s worth it to earn your status as ‘Google guaranteed’. This is then automatically displayed to everyone who sees your business, so they know you are trustworthy and checked by Google. Great for trust, authenticity and getting an edge on your competition! It is also great for customers – the badge protects them if they are unsatisfied with the work they receive for jobs booked through Local Service Ads (capped at £2,000 protection).
3. Showcase 5 Star Reviews
Your reviews here are unique and showcased under your name. However, be aware that these reviews and your ad listing are NOT linked to your Google Business listing on the map. These ratings are unique to your Google Local Ads listing. To get more reviews, go to your “Dashboard” and select “Business Verification”, then click “Customer Reviews”, and you will find the link to send to customers to collect these reviews.
Make sure you send these review requests out to build up your ratings. Google has said that they will automatically add the option to request reviews under your “Leads” any day now (once you mark a job as booked) – keep your eyes peeled for this option soon!
4. Get To The Top Of Google
Local service ads appear top, above organic and other Google Search Ads on Google – so you will have a better chance of being seen first! So your ratings, Google Guaranteed badge and quick contact details will all work together to get you to the top of Google.

- Select Google’s bullet points for your bio.
- Your service areas.
- Advert photos – your logos, business images etc
- Your job/service types.
