Google Ads in the Melbourne Tradie Market
Melbourne's tradie market is shaped by its suburbs. The inner suburbs from Fitzroy to South Yarra to Richmond have high search density and high competition. The middle ring from Box Hill to Doncaster to Oakleigh offers strong volume with less aggressive competition. The outer east, south-east and north-west each have their own patterns.
I build Melbourne campaigns that are mapped to where you actually work. If your plumbing business covers the Bayside suburbs and the inner south-east, your campaign only runs there. Your budget does not bleed into areas your truck cannot reach in a reasonable time.
- Corridor-based geo-targeting matching your actual Melbourne service zones
- Separate campaign structures for inner and outer suburb competition levels
- Frankston and Werribee split apart rather than sharing one 50km budget
- Seasonal bid adjustments for painting, landscaping and exterior trades
- Year-round demand held on a base budget, with the spring lift funded separately
- Full conversion tracking from call and form to trackable cost per lead

Google Ads and Lead Generation for Melbourne Tradies
There are two things I do, and on a Melbourne account they are built to work together rather than sold separately.
Google Ads for Melbourne trade businesses
Search and Local Services Ads targeted to the Melbourne suburbs your team can actually reach in a profitable drive time, not a blanket metro radius.
- Suburb-level geo-targeting built around your real Melbourne service radius
- Separate campaign structures for emergency work and planned jobs
- Local Services Ads setup and verification where Google offers it for your trade
- Negative keyword lists carried over from every trade campaign before yours
- Call tracking on every number, so a wrong number never counts as a job
- Bid scheduling set to the hours your phone actually gets answered

Turning Melbourne clicks into booked jobs
The click is the easy part. What decides whether it becomes a job is the page it lands on, what that page asks for, and whether you can see which ad produced the call.
- A landing page built for one trade and one job type, not a template
- Forms that ask for what you need to quote and nothing else
- Conversion tracking wired from the ad through to the enquiry
- Reporting that shows cost per booked job, not just cost per click
- A phone number and quote form above the fold on mobile, where the traffic is
- The page, the tracking and the ad account all stay in your name
No lock-in contract and no retainer. You stay because it returns, or you leave.
Why Melbourne Tradies Work with Me
I run Google Ads for trades only. Melbourne's suburban complexity means generic campaigns with city-wide geo-targets produce poor results. I map campaigns to where your business genuinely operates.
Month-to-month contracts. No lock-in. Your account and your data.
I cover all of Melbourne, and all of Australia
I run campaigns across Melbourne's inner suburbs, eastern corridors, Bayside, south-east and western suburbs.
Not sure Melbourne is competitive enough for your trade?
Then I will say so on the call. I would rather turn the work down than take a budget that was never going to return.
Google Ads for Melbourne trade businesses
Every campaign is built for the trade, not reskinned from a template. This is what I run in Melbourne, and the list is where the published campaigns are rather than a limit on who I take on.
