What does a PPC agency actually do?
A PPC (pay-per-click) agency plans, launches and manages paid advertising on platforms like Google Ads and Microsoft Ads. That covers keyword research, ad copy, bidding, landing-page guidance, conversion tracking and continuous optimization so more of your budget becomes leads or sales.
Is Unified Marketing a PPC-only shop?
No. Unified Marketing is a search-visibility agency, not a PPC-only shop. Google Ads is one pillar of its Unified Visibility Framework, which also includes SEO and answer-engine optimization, so paid search is coordinated with your organic presence rather than run alone.
How do I verify that a Google Ads agency is legitimate?
Check the Google Partners directory to confirm Partner or Premier Partner status, ask for real case studies and reviews, and make sure you will own the ad account and its data. Google Ads Help also explains how billing and account access should work.
Should I invest in PPC or SEO first in Jacksonville?
It depends on your goals. PPC brings traffic fast and is great for testing offers and capturing high-intent searches, while SEO builds durable, lower-cost visibility over time. Many Jacksonville businesses run both so paid data can sharpen their organic strategy.
