Mortgage PPC Enquiries Increase by 72% Within 4 Months Case Study

Client: Mortgage Broker

Industry: Mortgages

Service: PPC (Pay-Per-Click Advertising)

The Challenge & Our Impact

A mortgage broker’s PPC account was poorly structured, with over 30 keywords per ad group leading to poor ad relevancy. This resulted in approximately 40% irrelevant traffic, wasting crucial ad spend. Our approach focused on restructuring campaigns and diligent spend management. By creating seven new, tightly themed campaigns, utilising shared budgets, and implementing rigorous account-level negative keywords (updated every three days), we increased lead enquiries by 72% within the first four months, significantly boosting revenue from converted deals.

Core Challenges

  • Poor Account Structure & Ad Relevancy: Overcrowded ad groups (30+ keywords) diluted ad relevance and Quality Scores.
  • Approximately 40% of clicks were from irrelevant searches, leading to wasted budget.
  • Inefficient Ad Spend: Lack of control over negatives and campaign focus meant ad spend was not being used effectively.

Our Strategic Solution

  1. Campaign Restructuring: Created seven new, highly targeted campaigns with tightly themed ad groups to improve ad relevance and Quality Scores.
  2. Shared Budget Utilisation: Implemented shared budgets across campaigns to maximise click volume efficiently where opportunities arose.
  3. Aggressive Negative Keyword Management: Added account-level negative keywords and maintained this list with updates every three days to filter out irrelevant traffic and control spending.
  4. Internal Budget Reallocation: The savings from reduced wasted spend were reinvested within the campaigns to drive further growth in enquiries.
