Pay per click management for London businesses
Echelon Media is a PPC agency for London businesses that want enquiries now, not in six months. We plan, build and manage Google Ads and Meta ads (Facebook and Instagram) for SMEs, service businesses and online shops. Every campaign is set up to track calls, forms and sales, so you can see what your ad spend brings back.
Pay per click (PPC) means you only pay when someone clicks your ad. In London, clicks can be expensive because so many businesses compete for the same searches. That makes good management even more important. We focus your budget on the searches, areas and times of day most likely to turn into customers, and we cut the spend that does not.
We are based in Tiptree, Essex, and manage campaigns for clients across London. If you want to understand the basics first, read our guide to how Google Ads works.

What's included
keyword Research
We find the searches London customers make when they are ready to buy, including area and “near me” searches. We also build a list of words to block, so you do not pay for clicks from people looking for jobs, free advice or something you do not sell.
Ad creation
We write ads that match each search and make your offer clear. For Meta ads we plan the images and video too. We test different versions to find the message that brings in the most enquiries for the lowest cost. Every ad is written to follow the CAP Code, the UK rules for online advertising.
Landing Page Development
Sending ad traffic to your home page wastes money. We build landing pages that match each campaign, load fast on mobile and make it easy to call or fill in a form. Our London web design team builds these in-house.
Campaign management
We manage your campaigns day to day and adjust bids, budgets, keywords and audiences as results come in. You keep ownership of your ad accounts, so your data and history stay with your business.
Reporting & Analysis
Each month you get a clear report showing spend, clicks, cost per enquiry and what changed. We explain the numbers in plain English and agree the next steps with you.
