Why setup matters

Broad match keywords and no negative list is the fastest way to burn a budget on the wrong searches.

Search Ads reward precision. A campaign with the right keyword match types, a real negative keyword list, and working conversion tracking spends efficiently from day one. A campaign without those things pays for clicks that were never a fit, and won't know it until the budget's already gone. Search Ads Setup is where that precision gets built in.

What's included

Everything a Search Ads account needs before launch

Conversion Tracking Setup

The right conversion actions defined and verified in Google Tag Manager, so the campaign optimizes toward outcomes that actually matter to your business.

Keyword Research & Match Type Strategy

Keywords researched and grouped with intentional match types, balancing reach against relevance instead of defaulting to broad match everywhere.

Ad Group Structure

Tightly themed ad groups matched to specific keyword clusters, so every ad stays relevant to the search that triggered it.

Negative Keyword List

A researched negative keyword list built before launch, so your ads don't show for searches that look related but were never going to convert.

Our setup process

Four steps to a launch-ready account

  1. 1

    Research

    Keyword research identifies real search demand and the negative keywords needed to filter out irrelevant traffic.

  2. 2

    Track Conversions

    The right conversion actions are set up and verified through Google Tag Manager before any keyword goes live.

  3. 3

    Structure & Write

    Ad groups are built around keyword clusters, with ad copy written to match the specific intent of each group.

  4. 4

    Verify & Launch

    Test conversions are confirmed firing correctly before the campaign goes live for real.

Why businesses choose Sivaga

We build the negative keyword list first, not as an afterthought once budget's already been wasted.

Negative keywords built before launch, not after

Most accounts we audit build their negative list reactively, after seeing wasted spend. We build ours proactively before day one.

One-time engagement, clear finish line

Setup is scoped and delivered as a defined project, not stretched into an open-ended arrangement.

Hands directly into our own Management service

Since we also run Google Ads Management, setup is built to the exact standard our own optimization team needs, not a generic checklist.

Proof

The kind of setup work we do

A newer standalone offering, unbundled from ongoing management

Setup used to be bundled silently into every Management engagement. We don't have separate setup-only case studies published yet, but the technical process is identical to what every live Google Ads Management account already runs on.

Built to feed straight into ROAS-first management

Our Google Ads Management service optimizes campaigns against real outcomes, and that only works when tracking and structure are set up correctly first, which is exactly what this service delivers.

Test conversions verified before spend goes live, every time

We confirm conversion actions are firing correctly in Google's own tools before calling any setup complete, rather than assuming a tag install worked because the code was pasted in.

FAQ

Questions we hear before starting Search Ads setup

Search Ads Setup is a one-time foundation: conversion tracking, keyword research, ad group structure, and negative keywords. Google Ads Management is ongoing, optimizing bids, budgets, and ad copy on live campaigns. Setup happens first, management runs afterward.
Without a negative keyword list, your ads can show for searches that look related but aren't, like a repair service showing up for someone searching how-to guides. That wastes budget on clicks that were never going to convert, which is one of the most common problems we find in unmanaged accounts.
If conversion tracking wasn't set up correctly or your keyword match types are too broad, an existing account can still be optimizing against the wrong signals. A setup audit can identify and fix this on a live account.
No one can guarantee specific auction outcomes, since cost per click depends on competition in your market at the time you're bidding. What setup guarantees is that your account is structured to compete efficiently within whatever that market looks like.
Yes, initial ad copy for each ad group is included as part of setup, written around the specific keywords in that group. Ongoing ad copy testing and refinement is part of Google Ads Management once campaigns are live.

"We had zero negative keywords for a year. The list they built cut irrelevant clicks almost immediately."

Every irrelevant click is budget your best keywords never got to spend

A missing negative keyword list doesn't just waste money, it quietly starves the searches that would have actually converted.
