The challenge

Rising costs. Noisy data. Budget spent on the wrong searches.

Rising costs

Unoptimised dental campaigns often pay high costs per click — so every new patient costs more.

Over-counted conversions

Tracking that counts page views or repeat clicks as conversions feeds Smart Bidding the wrong signals.

Low-intent traffic

General dental searches waste spend on public health schemes, price shopping and DIY advice.

How we solved it

Right searches. Clean tracking. Lower cost per patient.

01Search

High-intent dental campaigns

Ad groups built around real treatments: emergency dentist Gold Coast, family check-ups, teeth whitening and children’s dentistry.

02Negatives

Negative keyword guardrails

Strict negative lists block dental jobs, public clinics, cheap dentures and dental student courses.

03Tracking

One patient, one conversion

Calls, online bookings and webchat tracked through Google Tag Manager — each patient counted once per session.

04Smart Bidding

Bidding on clean data

Smart Bidding fed by verified bookings, with ad schedules and radiuses set around clinic hours.
