    Google Local Advertising FAQs

    Since Google Local Services Ads are newer and less familiar than Google Search Ads, we’ve created a FAQ list to help you get up to speed.

    Why do I need to use Google LSAs?

    They quickly place your business at the top of local search results, connecting you with local customers searching for your services.
