What it is
Google Ads is no longer managed keyword by keyword
Managing Google Ads in 2026 means giving Google's automation strong signals, strong creative and guardrails, not nudging bids by hand: what AI Max, Performance Max and Smart Bidding learn decides whether an account pays off.
So we start with measurement: clear conversions, enhanced conversions, Consent Mode v2 and CRM data when sales close offline. Then we build a campaign structure by goal, market and language, refined weekly with human judgement.
We coordinate it with SEO to cover the whole results page, analytics and tracking that feed bidding clean data, and conversion rate optimisation so paid clicks land on pages that convert.

AI Max for Search: what changes in your Search campaigns
AI Max for Search is not a new campaign type but an optimisation layer inside your Search campaigns. It combines search term matching, text customisation and final URL expansion, with brand, location and text-guideline controls.
Set up well, it finds new demand; unchecked, it can send traffic to weak pages or publish messages you would never approve. We decide which features each campaign uses.
Two dates matter. Google set September 2026 for the automatic upgrade of campaigns using campaign-level broad match or automatically created assets. And Dynamic Search Ads are moving into AI Max and will be retired in February 2027, so DSA-dependent accounts need a migration plan.
- Upgrade review: what the upgrade changes and which features to keep or switch off.
- DSA migration: target pages, URL exclusions and a controlled test before February 2027.
- Brand and text controls: so generated ads match your tone and real promises.
- Search term analysis: new queries become negatives, ad groups or website fixes.

Search, Performance Max or Demand Gen: the right campaign for each goal
Each campaign type serves a different goal: Search captures people already looking, with the tightest control; Performance Max spreads one budget across Google's inventory; Demand Gen builds demand before anyone searches.
Performance Max is no longer a pure black box: it offers campaign-level negatives, a search terms report, channel performance reporting (introduced in beta in 2025), brand exclusions, device targeting, age controls and asset-level stats. We use them so PMax doesn't cannibalise brand traffic.
Demand Gen lets you pick placements (YouTube in-stream, in-feed and Shorts, Discover, Gmail, Display and Maps) and has absorbed Video Action Campaigns. Video-led work runs with our YouTube advertising service.
- Search: clear intent, high-value leads, full message control.
- Performance Max: ecommerce with a Merchant Center feed and enough conversion volume.
- Demand Gen: launches, new products and audiences who don't yet search for you.
- Shopping and feeds: catalogues where feed quality shapes visibility, alongside our ecommerce service.

Smart Bidding with signals that reflect your business
Smart Bidding is only as good as its goals. Count every button click as a conversion and it optimises for clicks; feed it qualified conversions, real values and closed sales, and it learns to find customers.
We choose target CPA, target ROAS, or maximise conversions or value, by account maturity. Google Marketing Live 2026 brought journey-aware bidding in beta, letting target-CPA Search campaigns learn from calls and forms (useful for professional services, education or healthcare leads), plus Smart Bidding Exploration for Performance Max. Campaign total budgets, available since 2025, suit fixed-date promotions.
When sales close by phone or in person, we import offline conversions from your CRM so Google learns which clicks become revenue.
In depth
Measurement first: enhanced conversions and Consent Mode v2
Before scaling spend, tracking must be reliable and lawful: well-defined conversions, enhanced conversions and Consent Mode v2 connected to a compliant consent management platform.
Enhanced conversions for web and leads now sit under one setting, and since April 2026 Google Ads accepts data from the tag, Data Manager and the API at once. Sent hashed, it recovers conversions cookies no longer attribute.
Consent Mode v2 uses four parameters: ad_storage, analytics_storage, ad_user_data and ad_personalization. Basic mode holds Google tags until consent; Advanced mode loads them and sends cookieless pings for modelling. Google's EU User Consent Policy applies across the EEA, the UK and Switzerland; without those signals, EEA traffic cannot feed audiences, remarketing or personalisation.

Google Ads and AI answers: what is available in Spain
In Spain your ads can appear above or below Google's AI Overviews, not inside them. As of October 2026, in-Overview ads run only in English in 12 markets such as the US, Canada and Australia; no EU country is included.
AI Mode reached Spain in Spanish in October 2025, but its ads remain a US test with no EU dates. Formats unveiled at Google Marketing Live 2026, such as conversational discovery ads and a business agent for leads, are ones to watch in Spain, not to buy.
You can prepare: eligibility for those formats comes mainly through AI Max and Performance Max, with strong feeds and assets. Finance, healthcare and other sensitive verticals are excluded from in-Overview ads everywhere.
Inside conversational assistants, the channel open in Spain since August 2026 is ChatGPT (contextual ads on Free and Go plans), covered by our ChatGPT and AI search ads service.
In depth
Seasonal, multilingual campaigns for international markets
If you sell in several countries or have high and low seasons, the account must reflect it: campaigns by market and language, budgets set to the demand calendar, everything ready before each peak.
Mallorca shows it clearly: a hotel or experiences business sells to visitors from Germany, the UK or the Nordics months ahead, and to locals the rest of the year. So do online shops shipping across Europe and SaaS firms.
- Market and language: ads written natively for each language, with matching landing pages.
- Precise location targeting: people in a place versus people interested in it, vital for buyers abroad.
- Demand calendar: bids that move ahead of the season and lean upkeep off-season.
- Organic alignment: keywords coordinated with international SEO, so you don't pay for traffic you already win.
In depth
Budgets, account ownership and no lock-in
There is no standard budget: it depends on your market, margins and goals. We size it with data (auction competition, search volume, conversion rate, customer value) and scale when results justify it. Ad spend goes directly to Google; our fee is separate and in writing.
The main drivers are sector, markets and languages, seasonality, website quality and learning time. In Spain, Google handles the vast majority of searches, so your competitors are usually there too.
The account is yours: in your name, with your payments profile, accessed through our manager account (MCC). If we part ways, we unlink and you keep its history, conversions and audiences. No lock-in.

Why manage Google Ads with SERMAN
Measurement before spend
No scaling on shaky data: reliable conversions and correct consent first, growth second.
Automation with human control
AI Max, PMax and Smart Bidding within limits: negatives, exclusions, text guidelines and asset review.
Your account, your data
In your name from day one. No lock-in and no account held back.
The whole search picture
Ads, SEO and visibility in AI answers coordinated, so spend goes where organic reach can't.
What it is not
What this service is not
- We don't guarantee a CPA, ROAS or ad position: they depend on the auction, the market and your offer.
- It isn't set-and-forget: automation needs constant review.
- We don't buy cheap clicks to pad out reports.
- We never hold back your account or data if you change agency.
- We don't run political ads, which Google no longer serves in the EU.
- It won't fix a site that doesn't convert; if the landing page fails, we start by improving conversion.
What we measure
The metrics that actually matter
We measure what spend brings your business, not clicks or impressions.
Qualified conversions and value
Leads, bookings or sales that meet your customer definition, with real values.
CPA and ROAS against margins
Judged against what your business can afford, not market averages.
Impression share
Demand captured, and demand lost to budget or ad rank.
Search term quality
The share of spend on relevant queries, including AI Max and PMax ones.
Market, language and channel
Results by country, language, season and PMax channel to guide investment.
Measurement health
Consent rate, enhanced conversions diagnostics and offline match: weak signals mean weak bidding.

Compliance
Regulations and policies we apply
Advertising on Google from Spain means following EU rules and platform policies. This is not legal advice.
EU User Consent Policy
Google requires valid consent in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland to use cookies and personal data for advertising.
Cookies under AEPD guidance
Spain's data protection authority requires “reject” at the same level as “accept”, and no cookie walls without a real alternative.
Political advertising
Google has not served political ads in the EU since October 2025, under EU political-ad transparency rules.
Environmental claims
Directive (EU) 2024/825 on greenwashing has applied since 27 September 2026, though Spain's transposition was then incomplete. We avoid generic “eco” or “sustainable” claims without proof.
Industries
Where we apply it
Private Clinics, Aesthetics & Wellness
Marketing for dental, aesthetic, medical and wellness clinics: local search, AI answers, genuine reviews and multilingual booking.
Education & Training
Education marketing for private universities, business schools, international schools and academies: student recruitment in Spain and abroad.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How much does a Google Ads campaign cost?
There is no standard price: you set the budget and pay Google directly, mostly per click. Cost per customer depends on sector, competition, markets and conversion rate; our audit proposes a starting budget.
How much does a Google Ads agency charge?
Whether you hire a PPC agency or a Google Ads consultant, it depends on scope: campaigns, markets, languages and measurement work. Our fee is separate from ad spend and agreed in writing.
What is AI Max in Google Ads?
An optimisation layer for Search campaigns combining search term matching, text customisation and final URL expansion. You enable it inside existing campaigns, with brand, location and text controls.
Can my ads appear inside Google's AI Overviews in Spain?
No. As of October 2026, ads in Spain show above or below AI Overviews; ads inside them run only in English in 12 non-EU markets, and AI Mode ads are a US test.
What happens to my Dynamic Search Ads (DSA) campaigns?
Google is moving them into AI Max and will retire DSA in February 2027. We migrate early, with URL exclusions, text guidelines and side-by-side testing.
If I work with an agency, do I still own my Google Ads account?
With us, yes. It is in your name, with your payment method; we access it through our manager account. If you leave, you keep its history, conversions and audiences.
Is Performance Max better than a Search campaign?
It depends on the goal. Search gives more control and anchors lead generation; Performance Max suits ecommerce with a feed and accounts with conversion volume. Many accounts run both.
Do I need Consent Mode v2 to advertise on Google from Spain?
With EEA traffic, in practice yes: without its signals you cannot build audiences, run remarketing or personalise ads on that traffic.
How long do Google Ads campaigns take to deliver results?
Ads can show once approved, but automated bidding needs a learning period with conversion data. We avoid abrupt early changes and read trends, not single days.
Do you also manage Microsoft Advertising?
Yes, as a complementary channel when your audience justifies it. Microsoft's own AI Max has been open to all advertisers since 27 August 2026.
Why choose a Google Ads agency in Mallorca if I sell across Europe?
Because in Mallorca we work every day with what international markets demand: multilingual campaigns, sharp seasonality and customers deciding from abroad.
