The Challenge
Roofing keywords are some of the most expensive clicks in home services, and this contractor was paying top dollar for them. The problem was where those clicks landed. Every ad dumped visitors onto a slow, generic homepage with no offer and no clear next step, so the pricey traffic bounced and the cost per lead ate the margin on every job.
We audited the account and the landing experience together, and the leak was obvious:
- Ads sent every visitor to the homepage instead of a matched page
- Quality Scores were low, which pushed click costs even higher
- There was no offer and no reason to act now
- No fast quote path, so interested visitors had nowhere to go
- High click cost plus a weak landing page meant expensive leads
The Solution
We built dedicated roofing landing pages matched to each ad group, so a repair search lands on a repair page and a storm-damage search lands on a storm page. The Google Ads work paired tight message match with a real offer, and the better relevance lifted Quality Scores, which brought click costs down on their own.
- Dedicated landing pages, not the homepage
- Pages matched to repair, replacement, and storm damage
- A free inspection offer and two-step quote form
- Trust badges and financing to reduce hesitation
- Tighter ad groups so each ad speaks to one intent
- Better message match to lift Quality Scores
- Lower cost per click as relevance improved
- Call and form tracking so bidding optimizes on real leads
Match the page to the ad, not the homepage
When someone searches for storm damage repair, they should not land on a generic homepage that talks about everything. We built a separate landing page for each ad group so the page always answers the exact search, and Google rewards that relevance with a higher Quality Score.
- One page per intent: repair, replacement, and storm damage each get their own page, so the message matches what the person actually searched.
- Higher Quality Scores: tight relevance between keyword, ad, and page lifted Quality Score from 4 to 8, which Google rewards directly.
- Lower click costs: a better Quality Score lowers cost per click on its own, so the same budget buys more traffic without touching the bid.
- Less bounce: when the page answers the search immediately, expensive clicks stop bouncing and start converting.
Give a reason to act, then make it easy
A matched page still needs a reason to act and a simple way to do it. We led with a free inspection offer, backed it with trust, and kept the form short, then wired in tracking so the conversion data could steer bidding toward real leads.
- A free inspection offer: a clear, low-risk offer gives the homeowner a reason to reach out now instead of shopping around.
- Trust badges and financing: badges and a financing option reduce hesitation on a big-ticket decision, right where people stall.
- A two-step quote form: the short form asks the easy question first, so more visitors start it and more of them finish.
- Tracking that steers bids: call and form conversions feed back into Google Ads, so bidding optimizes on real leads and conversions grew 120 percent.
How We Did It
01. Ad group to page match
We mapped each ad group to its own landing page so repair, replacement, and storm searches each land on a matching page.
02. Offer design
Built a free inspection offer with trust badges and financing to give visitors a reason to act.
03. Quality Score work
Tightened keyword, ad, and page relevance in Google Ads to raise Quality Scores and lower click costs.
04. Conversion tracking
Wired CallRail and GA4 so every call and form fill is measured back to its source.
05. Ongoing testing
A/B tested offers and form length to keep pushing cost per lead down after launch.
The Results
Cost per lead dropped 41% while lead volume rose, so the contractor got more roofing leads for less money. Better message match lifted Quality Scores from 4 to 8, which lowered cost per click as a bonus, and the conversion rate on the landing pages climbed 120% over the old homepage.
| Cost per lead | -41% |
| Quality Score | 4 to 8 |
