16 days ago54 proposalsRemoteGoogle ads for lead Generation
Hi All, I run a domestic cleaning business based in Essex. I’m looking for an experienced Google Ads freelancer who can review and optimise my account for efficient, high-quality lead generation. I would appreciate professional guidance on the best campaign structure, keyword strategy, conversion tracking, and ongoing optimisation, ensuring spend is focused on high-intent searches and wasted budget is minimised. The goal is a lean, well-managed Search campaign that reliably generates local leads and can be scaled once performance is proven. Here are some of the problems I was facing before; Campaign structure was unfocused, with broad and low-intent keywords mixed in with high-intent local searches. Search terms and negative keywords were not properly managed, causing wasted spend on irrelevant traffic (jobs, commercial cleaning, general research). Too much budget was allocated to non-Search / cross-network traffic, while core Search campaigns had low impression share. Conversion tracking was unclear or unreliable, making optimisation decisions questionable. No leads was really being generated and my daily spend was £20 per day. I currently rank number 1&2 on google organically across my service area.

Hello everyone, I am a teacher and coach of a student team (ages 11–15) working on an educational STEM project related to archaeology and heritage conservation. We are designing a small portable “conservation capsule” intended to protect fragile archaeological finds (fossils, ceramics, bones) immediately after excavation and during transport. The idea is educational, but inspired by real field problems. Concept summary: - Transparent portable capsule - Internal temperature and humidity monitoring (sensors) - Active control using heating/cooling elements and a humidifier - Passive shock protection (foam + damping layer) - Goal: reduce thermal shock, humidity fluctuation, and vibration damage before lab conservation We are NOT claiming this replaces professional conservation methods. We are looking for: - Expert feedback on realism - What is scientifically reasonable vs unrealistic - What real archaeologists actually struggle with in the field - Suggestions to improve or simplify the concept If you are an archaeologist, conservator, researcher, or student in the field, your feedback would be extremely valuable. Thank you for your time.
