We are an SEO-first agency on purpose: organic visibility compounds, while ads stop the moment spend stops. But there are moments where paid media is the right accelerant, and for those moments we manage it the same way we do everything else: transparently, with you owning 100% of the accounts. Scope and pricing are custom-tailored to your business, so the path starts with a conversation.
Ad management services at Portland Peak SEO are offered as an add-on to SEO and web design engagements rather than a standalone product: paid search, shopping, and social campaigns managed with transparent reporting, where the client owns 100% of the ad accounts from day 1. Pricing is custom-tailored to each business’s goals, margins, and spend rather than published as a rate card, so every engagement begins with a conversation and a written scope.
Most agencies lead with ads because ads bill fast. We lead with organic because organic compounds: every page, link, and technical fix from our 17-method Uncharted framework keeps producing after the work is done. Paid media earns its place as an accelerant on top of that foundation, not a substitute for it: covering a seasonal window, testing demand for a new offer or market, or capturing high-intent searches while organic positions mature.
Selling it as an add-on keeps the incentives honest. We are never tempted to keep you dependent on spend, because our core engagement succeeds when you need ads less, not more.
Ads make sense when the math does: when your margins support the cost per acquisition, when there is a timing reason organic cannot cover, or when a new offer needs demand data fast. They do not make sense as a permanent crutch for a site that cannot rank or convert. If your foundation is the problem, we will say so and point you at the fix instead of taking the spend.
| Channel | What gets managed | Strongest fit |
|---|---|---|
| Paid search | Keyword and intent targeting, ad copy, negative keyword discipline, landing page alignment | High-intent service and commercial queries worth capturing immediately |
| Shopping | Feed quality, product segmentation, and bidding aligned to catalog margins | E-commerce stores, especially alongside our e-commerce SEO program |
| Paid social | Audience strategy, creative testing, and conversion tracking | Demand creation for offers people are not yet searching for |
Every engagement runs on 4 non-negotiables:
No rate card, no templated packages. The scope is built around your numbers:
The add-on pairs naturally with e-commerce SEO services for shopping campaigns, with e-commerce web design when a new store needs launch momentum, and with our AI SEO services as the organic engine it accelerates.
Because honest ad management cannot be templated: the right scope depends on your margins, your catalog or services, your existing data, and what organic already covers. We publish starting points for our SEO and design services where scope is comparable across clients; for ads, a rate card would either overcharge small scopes or undercharge complex ones. You get a written custom quote after the conversation.
Generally no, and that is deliberate. Ads as a standalone service builds dependence on spend; ads as an add-on accelerates an asset you own. If your situation is genuinely ads-only, we will tell you and point you toward the right kind of provider.
You do, completely and from day 1. Accounts are created in your name or transferred to it, and every piece of campaign history and conversion data stays yours if we ever part ways.
No, and no honest manager can. We guarantee the execution: verified tracking, disciplined management, and transparent reporting every 30 days that you can check against your own dashboards. Returns depend on your offer, margins, and market as much as on management.
Tell us about your business and goals. We will assess whether paid media is the right accelerant for you, and if it is, scope it custom and put it in writing.
