Liverpool’s paid search agencies are spread from the Baltic Triangle to the city centre and the Fabric District, with at least one specialist across the Mersey in Birkenhead.
To build this list of PPC agencies in Liverpool, we checked each firm’s own contact and about pages for a real street address in Liverpool or Merseyside, looked for a live site with 2025 or 2026 activity, and confirmed that paid search or Google Ads is a genuine core service with its own service page or specialist staff. We left out firms that only run a Liverpool landing page while operating from elsewhere, firms whose only Liverpool link is a registered office, directories and marketplaces, agencies working mainly in gambling, adult or crypto, and anything we could not verify on the agency’s own site.
Each entry covers where the agency is based, how it runs Google Ads and other paid channels, the evidence it publishes (named clients, results, team, partner status), any published terms, and who it suits. If you are weighing up a PPC agency Liverpool businesses already use against a smaller specialist, the How To Choose section sets out what to ask.

Mayfly has worked from Kempston St Works, 87 Kempston Street, near the Fabric District, since 2008. PPC is one of its three featured services, next to SEO and web design, with branding, email marketing and social media also offered. Director Liam has more than 20 years in digital marketing.
Its PPC page sets out an eight-step process: a feasibility check on order value, lifetime value, conversion rates and click costs, then keyword planning, competitor analysis, campaign build with landing page changes and tracking, client approval, launch, optimisation and monthly reporting. Google Ads is the main platform, covering Search, Shopping, Display and Video, with Microsoft and Meta also offered.
Case studies name Allerton Windows, Knotweed Help, Glacial Art, Wall Industries and Ovenu, and the agency reports an average client relationship of more than five years and a 4.9 rating from 66 Google reviews.

Paid search sits within its attract stage alongside SEO, lead generation and paid social.
The PPC service covers Google Ads across Search, Shopping, Display and video, local and international campaigns in several languages, Amazon Sponsored ads, remarketing, Bing advertising and PPC audits. The team also builds PPC landing pages and uses data-led bidding against a target cost per acquisition, with reporting through Raven Tools.

Herd Marketing works from Base Camp, Level One, 49 Jamaica Street, in the Baltic Triangle. Mark Baker founded it in 2018 after more than 16 years in digital marketing, and paid advertising is its main business: the homepage positions it as a Meta Ads and Google Ads agency for lead generation and ecommerce.
Services include Google Ads and PPC management for lead generation and for ecommerce, Microsoft Ads, Meta Ads, SEO and WordPress builds. Clients deal directly with Mark rather than an account manager, which the agency presents as its main difference from larger firms. It offers a free ad account audit.
Client logos include Direct Cleaning, MCK Flooring, Crichton Apparel, Artisan Electric and The Disguisery Bar in Chester, covering trades, professional services, health and ecommerce. Its resources section was updated in September and October 2026 with guides on Google Ads lead quality and whether to pay for Google Ads management. Fees are quoted on request.
It suits trades and small businesses that want an experienced paid media specialist handling Google and Meta personally.
Six Digital is based at Unit 2, 24 Derby Road, north of the city centre. It describes SEO and PPC as its two core tools and keeps the team small on purpose: seven named staff led by managing director AJ, including a Campaign Manager. It is a member of the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce.
Its PPC offer comes in two forms: full management of Google Ads and Bing campaigns, or consultancy for in-house teams that want help with keyword research and campaign structure. The process covers research into competitors and device behaviour, segmented campaign builds, ad copy and landing page testing, remarketing audiences, moving budget towards stronger segments, and monthly ROI reports.
Logos on its site include Lavazza, Sainsbury’s, Subway franchising and Marchon, and the agency lists finance, insurance, travel and local business among the sectors it has run campaigns for. The site was updated in October 2026. Prices are not published.
It suits businesses that want paid and organic search planned together, and in-house marketers who want PPC consultancy rather than full outsourcing.
RedCore Digital is based at Unit 10, The Workshops, Marcus Street, in Birkenhead on the Wirral. Founder Dan Wiggins and managing director Jay Price lead a small team, and the agency’s four main services are SEO, pay-per-click on Google and Bing, web design and copywriting. SEO gets the most space on the site, but PPC has its own service line.
The site shows a Google Partner logo updated in 2026 and a Semrush agency partner badge. A blog post from 21 October 2026 reports that the agency has been shortlisted for three marketing awards, and it displays UK Search Awards 2026 finalist and Prolific North Marketing Awards 2026 badges.
Named clients include Pleavin Power, Carrot Recruitment, Culture Shift, Roger Black Fitness and Concept Projects Group, whose case study reports 133% more qualified construction leads. Pumice & Willow saw 85% more bookings. Prices are not published, but its proposal form takes monthly budgets from under £1,000 to over £5,000. It holds a 5-star Google rating from 29 reviews.
It suits Wirral and Merseyside SMEs that want SEO and paid search from one local team.
Frankenstein Digital is an ecommerce growth agency at 5 Janet Drive, Liverpool. Founder Paul Pennington has worked in ecommerce since 2013 across Magento, Shopify and WordPress, holds a BSc in eBusiness from the University of Liverpool, and moved from freelance work into running the agency.
PPC is one of four pillars, with ecommerce SEO, development and automation, and it focuses on Google Shopping and Performance Max. The agency’s commercial intelligence tool compares ad spend against product margins and can remove poorly performing products from Shopping campaigns. It is a Google Partner certified in Google Ads, a Shopify Partner and a Magento Certified Developer.
Named clients include Bed Factory Direct, Taskers, Work Uniform Company and Raquex. Its published case studies focus on SEO and development results, such as 900% sales growth for Work Uniform Company, so ask for paid media examples specifically. The site was updated in October 2026. Prices are not published.
It suits Shopify and Magento retailers that want Shopping campaigns managed by people who also understand their platform and margins.
Plenty of national firms rank for “Google Ads agency Liverpool” with a location page and no local team, and some list only a Liverpool registered office. Before you hire a PPC agency Liverpool search results show you, check the contact page for a working address and ask who runs your account. A Liverpool PPC agency with a local office can meet you in person and will know the regional competition. Every firm here has a published Merseyside address; RedCore Digital is across the river in Birkenhead.
Herd Marketing and Blaze Media put paid media at the centre of their work, while Mayfly, Activate Digital and RedCore Digital fit PPC into wider SEO and web projects. Six Digital sits between the two as a search-only agency. Retailers on Shopify or Magento may get more from a platform specialist such as Frankenstein Digital.
Most agencies here quote on request. As a typical UK market range, Google Ads management for a small business costs about £400 to £1,000 a month, mid-sized accounts about £1,000 to £3,000 a month, and larger accounts are often billed at 10% to 20% of monthly ad spend. One-off set-up fees of £500 to £2,000 are common, and media spend is paid to Google on top. Mayfly is the only firm here that publishes a minimum budget, at £15,000 a year.
Ask for paid search case studies with client names and figures you can check, such as cost per lead, return on ad spend or sales. Blaze Media and Activate Digital publish named PPC results; where an agency’s case studies are mainly SEO, ask for paid examples before you sign.
Check minimum terms, notice periods and account ownership. Mayfly publishes a three-month minimum followed by a fixed term or a rolling contract with 30 days’ notice, which is a sensible benchmark. Make sure the Google Ads account is set up in your name so you keep the data and history if you change agency.
Ecommerce and lead generation brands that want a dedicated paid team with named results should start with Blaze Media. Established SMEs looking for clear terms and a long-running partner will find that in Mayfly, while Activate Digital suits sellers running Amazon alongside Google. Herd Marketing gives smaller firms a founder-led Google and Meta specialist, and Six Digital fits businesses that want SEO and PPC planned together. RedCore Digital serves the Wirral, and Frankenstein Digital covers Shopify and Magento retailers.
Before you sign with any PPC agency Liverpool has to offer, check five things: a real Merseyside address and the name of your account manager, current Google Partner status or certifications, paid search case studies with named clients, clear minimum terms and notice periods, and written confirmation that you own the Google Ads account and its data.
