Pay Google by the Atlanta lead.
Not by the click.
Local Service Ads (LSA) in Atlanta are Google's pay-per-lead advertising format at the top of Atlanta search results — above the Maps 3-pack and traditional Google Ads. You pay Google only when a verified lead contacts you, not per click. Atlanta LSA is available for ~70+ service categories (home services, healthcare, legal, beauty, automotive, education, care, pet). Not eligible for retail, restaurants, B2B, e-commerce. Our Atlanta LSA management costs $399 one-time setup + $99/month — ad spend paid directly to Google ($400-$1,800/mo typical Atlanta range).
