FAQ

Quick answers to common LSA questions.

What's the difference between LSA and PPC?

LSA is pay-per-lead - you only pay when someone contacts you directly through the ad. PPC (pay-per-click) charges for every click and offers more granular control over targeting, landing pages, and conversion tracking. LSA is simpler and ideal for local service businesses; PPC is better for businesses that need detailed analytics and broader campaign control.

How do I get the Google Guaranteed badge?

Google requires a background check and verification of your business license and insurance. We guide you through the entire process as part of the setup.

Can I dispute invalid leads?

Yes. Google allows disputes for spam, wrong-service, and non-local leads. We handle disputes on your behalf as part of ongoing management.

What types of businesses qualify for LSA?

LSA is available for a growing list of service categories including HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing, legal, financial planning, and more. We can confirm eligibility for your specific industry.

Is the lead cost included in your fee?

No. Lead costs are paid directly to Google. Our fees cover profile setup, optimization, dispute handling, and ongoing management.
