The searches that will find you

We group searches by intent: high-intent queries go into separate campaigns with higher bids, informational ones become negative keywords or content.

Niche specifics

Why ads for IT Outsourcing & Software Development can’t follow a template

01

Candidates instead of clients

Searches like “react developer”, “java remote” or “developer jobs” are typed by both clients and programmers looking for work. We filter out candidates with negative keywords (jobs, salary, vacancy, resume, junior, courses) and choose wording with hiring intent: hire, company, services, outsourcing.

02

An expensive Western auction

US and Western European markets are competitive, and broad queries like “software development” eat through the budget fast. We narrow keywords to the technologies, industries and project types where you have strong expertise, and send each area to its own page.

03

Too few conversions for automation

Real leads are scarce, and a deal takes several months to close. To give Smart Bidding enough signals, we send intermediate stages from your CRM — qualified lead, call, proposal sent — each with a different value.

04

Trusting a remote vendor

The client is risking budget and deadlines, so they check case studies, reviews on independent platforms, processes and security. Remarketing with case studies and technical articles keeps you in touch while the decision is approved internally.

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

Web apps, mobile products and integrations. Transparent sprints and weekly reports.

We'll discuss your task, estimate the scope and propose a team for your timeline.

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.

  • Project estimate request
  • Call booked via calendar
  • Case study or deck download (micro-conversion)
  • Qualified lead (CRM status)
  • Proposal sent
  • Signed contract with deal value

Demand seasonality

Demand depends on clients' budget cycles: more inquiries at the start of the year and of each quarter, fewer during the year-end holidays and summer vacations in target markets. For each country we account for its holidays and business hours, so ads run when your sales team can respond quickly.

FAQ

Common questions about ads for IT Outsourcing & Software Development

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

How do you tell a client's search from a programmer looking for work?

By marker words: clients type hire, company, services, outsourcing, development team, while candidates type jobs, salary, remote, vacancy. We build keywords around commercial intent and add a large negative keyword list. We review search terms regularly because wording keeps changing.

Does Google Ads work for IT outsourcing if deals take months to close?

It does, if you evaluate campaigns by lead quality rather than lead volume. We connect ads to your CRM and send deal stages to Google Ads to see which queries lead to contracts. Remarketing keeps you in touch throughout the cycle.

Which markets should we start with?

The ones where you already have clients, case studies and convenient time zones for communication. We start with one or two countries, check lead quality and only then expand. More expensive markets go into separate campaigns so they don't take the whole budget.

Do we need a separate page for each technology?

Ideally, for your key areas. A client looking for a team on a specific stack wants to see relevant case studies, team composition and the engagement model right away. A page like that improves Quality Score and the share of visitors who submit a request.
