    The Problem

    What happens when this isn't handled.

    Google Ads runs on broad match and close variants, which means you're paying for clicks from searches that have nothing to do with your actual service. 'Free plumbing tips,' 'plumbing jobs near me,' 'how to fix a leak myself' — all of these can trigger your ads and drain your budget without producing a single customer.

    Why This Isn't Like Anything Else

    The old way vs. the AdEx way.

    Broad Match Bleeding

    Weekly Search Term Purge
    Every week we pull your search term reports, identify every query that spent money without converting, and kill it permanently.
    The AdEx Solution

    How the platform handles it for you.

    The Wasted-Click Purge is a weekly process. We pull your search term reports, identify every query that spent money without converting, and add them as negative keywords. Over time, your campaigns become surgically precise — only showing for searches that actually produce booked jobs.

    How It Works

    The process, step by step.

    1

    Weekly Search Term Review

    We pull every search term that triggered your ads and cross-reference against conversion data.

    2

    Waste Identification

    Terms with spend but no conversions — informational queries, job seekers, DIY searches — are flagged for removal.

    3

    Negative Keyword Application

    Flagged terms are added as negative keywords across your campaigns so they can never trigger your ads again.

    4

    Compounding Precision

    Each week's purge builds on the last. Over months, your campaigns become surgically targeted.

    Why It Matters

    The impact on your business.

    Budget Goes Further

    Money that was being wasted on irrelevant clicks gets redirected toward searches that actually convert.

    Higher Conversion Rate

    As irrelevant traffic is eliminated, the percentage of clicks that turn into jobs rises steadily.

    No DIY Searchers

    Informational queries and job seekers are permanently excluded from seeing your ads.
