Niche specifics

Why ads for Food Delivery can’t follow a template

01

Aggregators take your customers

Big delivery platforms dominate search results and take a commission on every order. Direct orders through your website or app are more profitable, but without clear advertising, customers go to the aggregator out of habit.

02

Demand is wider than your delivery zone

People you can't deliver to also search “pizza kyiv.” Without location targeting matched precisely to your delivery zones, budget goes to people outside your radius.

03

Orders have different value

A sushi set for a group and a single burger are completely different money. If Google Ads only sees that an order happened, without its value, the algorithm learns to bring in small orders.

04

Profit is in repeat orders

Delivery makes money on customers who come back. Without separating new and returning customers, ads pay for people who would have ordered anyway.

Sample ad

Here’s what your ad could look like

This is just one variation. In a responsive search ad, we write up to 15 headlines and 4 descriptions, and Google assembles the best combination for each search.

  • The search keyword appears in the first headline
  • A concrete benefit and offer instead of generic claims
  • A call to action that matches the goal: call, booking, directions
  • Sitelinks lead to relevant pages

Ad descriptions

We make your rolls after you order, not in advance. Thermal boxes keep them fresh.

Order on our website or Telegram bot and get a bonus on your next order.

Analytics

What we count as a result

Automated bid strategies learn from the data we feed them. That’s why we only count actions that lead to sales.

  • Completed order with order value
  • First order from a new customer
  • Call to place an order
  • Order via Telegram bot
  • App install and in-app order

Demand seasonality

Delivery demand grows in the cold season, in bad weather, before New Year's and on holidays, as well as on weekend evenings and during major sports broadcasts. There are two clear peaks during the day — lunch for offices and dinner at home — so we set the ad schedule and bids separately for each.

FAQ

Common questions about ads for Food Delivery

Answers to the questions business owners ask most often before launch.

Do ads make sense if we're already on delivery aggregators?

Yes, if the goal is more direct orders through your website, bot or app. An aggregator brings volume but takes a commission and keeps the customer for itself. Google Ads helps you capture people searching for your exact cuisine and move them into your own channels.

How do you measure results if some orders come in by phone?

We set up call tracking from ads and the website, and confirmed orders from your CRM can be sent back to Google Ads as offline conversions. That way the algorithm sees the full picture, not just online checkouts.

Do we need a separate campaign for brand searches?

As a rule, yes. Competitors and aggregators can show up for your name, and a brand campaign usually has a low cost per click and protects your orders from being intercepted. We report its numbers separately so it doesn't inflate overall results.

How do you show ads only in our delivery zone?

We set location targeting by radius or specific neighborhoods and exclude areas you don't deliver to. In the settings, we target people who are physically in the zone, not just interested in it. If zones have different delivery terms, we split them into separate campaigns.

When should we launch Performance Max?

Not on day one. First, Search campaigns build up an order history; then Performance Max gets quality conversions with value, audience signals from customer lists and brand exclusions. That way the campaign doesn't claim orders that would have come from brand searches anyway.
