Review the search terms from your electrician ads against the work your company intended to attract. Read the customer's apparent request beside the ad, landing page and available inquiry outcome before deciding what to change.
A keyword list describes targeting choices. The searches reported by the platform give another view of what people were looking for, with important limits.
Understand what the report contains
Google's search terms report documentation describes the searches that triggered ads and notes that some low-activity queries are omitted for privacy. Treat the report as available evidence rather than a complete transcript of every search.
Keep the reporting period and campaign context with the review. Do not infer the same customer intent from a term in isolation across unrelated services.
Sort by the decision the search suggests
Group reported terms into the service requests your company actually handles, requests needing interpretation and clear mismatches. Planned installations, repair interest, equipment shopping and employment searches can require different judgments.
Read the full phrase. A word such as jobs can describe employment or a customer asking about work. Excluding a fragment without context can remove useful searches as well as unsuitable ones.
- What service does the full query appear to request?
- Does the business offer that work in the intended area?
- Which page did the person reach?
- Do recorded inquiries support the apparent intent?
- Is the term clearly unsuitable or still uncertain?
Check the destination before blaming the query
A relevant search can reach an unclear page. If someone looking for an EV installation sees only a generic repairs offer, improve the service match. If the ad promises urgent attendance but the page offers planned estimates, correct the promise.
Use the actual customer record where available. A click alone cannot establish whether the person requested suitable work, and an unrelated form submission may reveal a wider message problem.

Make exclusions deliberately
Review proposed negative keywords and other targeting changes against legitimate services before applying them. Record why a term is unsuitable and check whether a broader exclusion could block valuable requests. Use the platform's current documentation for configuration decisions.
Avoid treating a competitor's keyword list as a ready-made account plan. Matching behavior and account context need review; a simplistic claim that an exact-match keyword triggers only one literal query should not guide your decisions.
Check whether the change improves inquiry fit
After an authorized change, review the available search evidence and actual suitable inquiries over an appropriate period. Account for other campaign or service changes before claiming causation.
Use electrician marketing lead quality to connect the term review with assessment and estimate outcomes. The purpose is relevant work, not a cleaner-looking keyword report.
