Google Ads case study

Google Ads wasted spend recovery.

An anonymised UK service business had campaigns bringing in clicks, but enquiry quality was inconsistent and spend was being pulled into low-intent searches.

The problem

Search terms, locations and campaign settings were allowing budget to drift into irrelevant traffic. Tracking also made it difficult to separate useful enquiries from weak leads.

What Wilmot did

Wilmot reviewed search term patterns, flagged waste themes, tightened negative keyword priorities, checked conversion signals and prepared a change list for approval.

The outcome

The account gained a cleaner optimisation rhythm, less avoidable spend and a clearer view of which searches deserved more attention in the next review cycle.

Redacted artefacts

What each case study is built from.

Client details stay anonymised, but the work pattern is specific: prompt, evidence, output and result.

Artefact Example What Wilmot produced Result signal
Prompt Review why enquiries are weak from paid traffic this month. Channel diagnosis covering search terms, tracking, landing page message match and next approvals. Cleaner account review rhythm and less wasted investigation time.
Work log Checked query themes, affected pages, conversion path and mobile decision points. Prioritised action list with evidence attached to each recommendation. Owner could see which changes were urgent and which could wait.
Output Rewrite page hero, tighten CTA, add FAQ proof and prepare approval note. Before-and-after copy plus desktop and mobile QA notes. Improved clarity without needing a full redesign.
Approval Budget, publishing and larger structural changes held for review. Clear approval request with risk, benefit and next step. Faster action without losing business-owner control.
SEO case study

SEO opportunity map and implementation.

An anonymised SME had useful services and local relevance, but the website did not make those opportunities easy for search engines or users to understand.

The problem

Important service pages were thin, internal links were inconsistent and several commercial search intents were not supported by dedicated page sections or FAQs.

What Wilmot did

Wilmot mapped priority queries to existing pages, recommended new page sections, improved headings, drafted FAQ content and connected related service pages with internal links.

The outcome

The business received a practical SEO action map and implemented on-page improvements that gave key services clearer search intent, structure and conversion routes.

Website case study

Website landing page improvement.

An anonymised landing page was receiving traffic from paid and organic sources, but the page made visitors work too hard before they could understand the offer or enquire.

The problem

The page had weak above-the-fold clarity, uneven mobile spacing, vague calls to action and limited proof near the decision points that mattered.

What Wilmot did

Wilmot rewrote the hero message, strengthened CTA placement, improved mobile layout, added clearer trust signals and prepared before-and-after evidence for review.

The outcome

The page became easier to scan, more direct on mobile and better aligned with the search and advert promises that brought visitors there.

Bundle case study

Combined bundle results.

An anonymised UK SME needed ads, SEO and website improvements to work together rather than producing separate reports with separate priorities.

The problem

Paid search data, organic opportunities and website conversion issues were visible in different places, but nobody was turning them into one practical monthly action list.

What Wilmot did

Wilmot connected advert findings, search demand, landing page gaps and reporting signals, then prioritised fixes across traffic quality, page clarity, internal linking and tracking evidence.

The outcome

The business moved from disconnected channel activity to a clearer loop: ads informed page fixes, website findings informed SEO, and reporting shaped the next month of work.
