  1. Local search opportunity

    Whether relevant searches appear to exist in the towns, boroughs or postcodes you want to target.

  2. Service, location and competition

    Which care service and area offer the strongest starting point, and where budget could be wasted.

  3. Website readiness

    Whether your website gives families enough information and confidence to enquire.

  4. Investment, tracking and enquiry quality

    The likely media budget, how genuine care outcomes should be measured and how recruitment searches should be excluded.

  5. Recommended next step

    What Byte Digital believes you should prioritise next, even when the answer is not Google Ads.

An honest recommendation

“Not yet” can be a useful answer.

The purpose of the review is to identify the right next move, not to recommend Google Ads at any cost.

  • Google Ads presents a worthwhile opportunity.

  • It could work, but the website or tracking should be improved first.

  • A different service, location or campaign approach should be prioritised.

  • Google Ads is unlikely to be the right investment at the moment.

Either way, you will have a clearer commercial decision than an automated lead estimate can provide.

A selective review

Is the review right for your care business?

The strongest fit is a provider with capacity, a defined area and a realistic intention to grow private care.

A strong fit

  • Capacity now or expected within three months
  • A clear service area and growth objective
  • A team able to respond promptly to families
  • Readiness to invest consistently if the opportunity is viable

It may be too early

  • No capacity or intended start date
  • Recruitment is the main objective
  • You only want a DIY campaign template

You can still submit the form. Gareth will point you towards the most useful next step.

Useful questions

Before you request a review

If your question is not covered, include it in the final form step.

Will you tell me if Google Ads is not right for us?

Yes. The purpose is to decide whether the opportunity, timing and likely economics make sense—not to sell Google Ads to every care provider.

Who completes the review?

Gareth Allen, Byte Digital’s founder and Managing Director, reviews the information personally and responds by email to arrange a call where useful. You will not receive an automated estimate based on a generic industry average.

How much should a care provider spend on Google Ads?

There is no reliable universal figure. It depends on local demand, competition, the care being promoted and the locations targeted. Media spend is paid directly to Google and is separate from Byte Digital’s management fee.

Do I need a new website or landing page?

Not necessarily. We will review whether your existing website is ready to convert paid traffic and recommend improvements only where commercially justified.

Do you work with home care providers and care homes?

Yes. The strategy and meaningful outcomes differ: private care packages and weekly hours for home care; viewings, admissions and occupancy for care homes.

Does requesting a review commit me to anything?

No. The review is intended to help you make a better-informed decision about whether Google Ads should be your next investment.
