What we do

A full-service Google Ads offering covering every campaign type and optimisation lever — from keyword strategy to conversion tracking and ROAS growth.

Search Campaigns

Keyword targeting, compelling ad copywriting and intelligent bidding strategies that put your business in front of customers actively searching for your services — driving maximum conversions at the lowest cost per click.

Display & Video Ads

Visual advertising across the Google Display Network and YouTube that builds brand awareness and reaches your ideal audience with eye-catching creative — expanding your visibility far beyond the search results page.

Shopping Campaigns

Product feed optimisation, Google Merchant Center management and Shopping ad campaigns that showcase your products directly in search results — driving high-intent traffic to your e-commerce store with strong ROAS.

Remarketing

Re-engage past visitors with targeted ads across the Google network. Our remarketing campaigns bring back warm prospects who didn't convert the first time — significantly improving your overall conversion rate and cost efficiency.

Landing Page Optimisation

CRO-focused landing pages engineered to convert paid traffic into leads and sales. We design, build and continuously test landing pages that maximise your Quality Score, lower your CPC and turn clicks into customers.

Analytics & Reporting

Conversion tracking, attribution modelling and transparent ROI reporting. We set up comprehensive analytics so you know exactly where every pound of ad spend goes — and what it's generating for your business.

While media companies generate significant organic traffic, paid search and display advertising play a critical role in driving subscription sign-ups, promoting premium content, filling event attendance, and supporting new-brand launches. Cloudswitched manages Google Ads campaigns for London media businesses, aligning paid-media spend with commercial objectives.

Media advertising requires a different approach to standard B2B or e-commerce PPC. Campaigns often promote content rather than products, target niche professional audiences alongside broad consumer demographics, and must coordinate with editorial calendars and tentpole events. We build campaign architectures that support subscription acquisition, event promotion, content-hub launches, and brand awareness, with audience targeting that leverages your first-party data and contextual signals. Every pound of spend is tracked against the commercial metrics that matter to your business.
