What is PPC Advertising?

PPC, or pay-per-click, is digital advertising where you pay only when someone clicks your ad. Your ads appear at the top of Google search results when someone searches a keyword you’re targeting, or across Meta and other social platforms based on the audience parameters you set. The combination of intent-based targeting and full cost accountability is what makes PPC one of the strongest ROI channels for local businesses.

For Pickering businesses, Google Search captures buyers who are actively looking for local services — the highest-intent traffic available in digital advertising. Meta ads extend your reach to a broader Pickering audience for brand building and retargeting. Together, they cover the full range of how local buyers discover and choose businesses.
