We read every agency site below on 13 November 2026. Each price and minimum in this post comes from that read, with a link. Where a site showed no price, we wrote Quote only. Our Google Ads agency fee calculator works out the monthly bill at your spend, so you can check any quote before the call.
Ownership note: We run ZenoX and put ourselves first. This is a shortlist by fit, not an independent ranking or a test of each agency's results. Their service claims are theirs. Our fit advice is our own view.
What Should a Google Ads Agency Actually Do for You?
A good agency owns the full loop. It checks that sales are tracked right. It fixes the product feed if you sell on Shopping. It sets budgets and campaigns, then tells you what it changed and why.
Many pitches only talk about the last part. Ask about the first two before you sign. If tracking is wrong, every bid after it is a guess.
How Did We Pick These Eight Agencies?
We picked agencies that are well known for Google Ads and that publish enough about their offer to compare. Each one had to show its services on its own site. We skipped sites that blocked a plain read on 13 November 2026, because we could not check them.
We did not score anyone. We did not test their results. The table shows what each site says, so you can ask better questions on the call.
Which Eight Google Ads Agencies Belong on Your Shortlist?
ZenoX Media: The Shopify Google Ads Specialist
We only do Google Ads, for Shopify and ecom stores spending €20K or more a month on ads. Our ecommerce Google Ads agency service covers tracking, the product feed and campaigns as one job. If you want one agency for every ad platform, pick a broader team.
Our published fee ladder starts at 10% on the first €10,000 of monthly spend. It drops by bracket to 6% above €150,000. Each rate applies only to its own slice, so at €20,000 a month the fee is €1,900. No setup fee and no lock-in. Our company numbers sit on our facts page.
WebFX: Published Price Tiers
WebFX publishes three PPC plans. On 13 November 2026 its pricing page listed $750 a month for $100 to $5,000 in ad spend. The next plan was $975 or 15% of spend, whichever is higher, up to $30,000. Above that it was $4,500 or 12% of ad spend, whichever is greater. The first month costs more: $1,200, $2,250 or $5,800, with a campaign audit included. The page also says the client keeps admin access to every campaign it creates.
groas: One Fixed Monthly Fee
groas listed Done For You from $2,000 a month, fixed, on 13 November 2026. Its page says the fee never grows with your ad spend, there is no contract, and each done-for-you plan starts with a 7-day money-back guarantee. The plan names paid ads, SEO and AI search. Ask whether your Shopping feed and PMax work are in that scope.
Hustle Marketers: A Flat Fee per Platform
Hustle Marketers listed $600 to $800 per platform per month on 13 November 2026, separate from ad spend. Its page says the work is month to month and you own your ad accounts. It names Google Shopping, Performance Max and Microsoft Shopping, and it works with Shopify stores. A flat fee is easy to plan for. Ask how many hours and which feed changes it buys.
SmartSites: A Published Ad Budget Floor
SmartSites says you pay a monthly management fee plus your ad spend, setup is free, and you get a written proposal with scope and fee before you sign. On 13 November 2026 it listed a minimum ad budget of $1,500 a month for local campaigns and $2,500 a month for national or ecommerce campaigns. The fee itself is a quote.
KlientBoost: Ads Plus the Page After the Click
KlientBoost gives three pricing options after a free marketing plan. It showed no fixed price on 13 November 2026. The sample plan on its homepage mixes ad spend changes with landing pages and onsite conversion work. Pick it when the page after the click is part of the brief. Get the Google Ads scope in writing.
Disruptive Advertising: Audit First, Many Channels
Disruptive Advertising lists paid search, paid social, SEO, Amazon, lifecycle marketing, conversion work and creative. Its site starts the talk with an audit. No price was shown on 13 November 2026. Consider it when you want more than Google Ads from one team. Ask who owns the Google work day to day.
Vysta: Google and YouTube for Ecom Brands
Vysta runs Google and YouTube ads for ecommerce brands. On 13 November 2026 its FAQ said most of its ecommerce clients pay £1,500 to £4,000 a month in management, on top of ad spend. It also said it works with brands that have at least £10k a month in existing ad spend, or the budget to get there. Ask how it splits new demand from sales you would have made anyway.
How Do the Eight Agencies Compare?
These are starting points for a call, not scores. A blank fee or minimum means the site did not publish one, not that none exists.

Which Five Questions Should You Ask Before You Sign?
- What do you change in month one? Ask for a redacted change log from a real account.
- Who checks the sales numbers? Ask how orders in Google Ads are matched to your store.
- Is the feed in the fee? For Shopping and PMax, the feed often matters more than the bid.
- What is the full monthly cost? Get fee, setup, tools and creative in one written quote.
- What happens when we stop? You should keep the ad account, the data and the feed rules.
Mark each answer as shown, promised or missing. A pitch with five promises and no proof is not ready. Our guide on how to verify a Google Ads agency goes deeper.

- Best Google Ads agencies for dropshipping is for dropshipping stores.
When Should You Skip ZenoX?
Under €20K a month in ad spend? We cannot take your account. That is our minimum, not a rule that every smaller store must go without help. A one-off audit, a lower-minimum agency from the table, or learning the work yourself may fit better.
The Google Ads Ecom Lab on Skool is our learning option, from $9 a month.
#1 Google Ads Skool Community: #1 of 233 when you search "google ads ecom" on Skool, 12 November 2026. That is Skool's own search order, not size. Bigger Google Ads groups exist on Skool. Run the same search.
It is a search position, not an award or a result guarantee.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Does a Google Ads Agency Do?
It runs your Google Ads account for you. That covers conversion tracking, campaign setup, product feed work for Shopping, budgets, bids, ad copy and reporting. Ask which of these are in the fee. Many agencies quote some of them as extras.
How Much Does a Google Ads Agency Cost?
Most charge a share of ad spend, a flat monthly fee, or the higher of the two. On 13 November 2026, WebFX listed $750 a month on its lowest plan, Hustle Marketers listed $600 to $800 per platform a month, and groas listed Done For You from $2,000 a month. ZenoX starts at 10% of spend and drops by bracket to 6%.
Is It Worth Hiring a Google Ads Agency?
It is worth it when the agency's work earns back more than its fee. That usually needs enough spend to test and enough sales data to learn from. At low spend, a fixed fee can eat most of the gain. Learning the basics yourself, or a one-off audit, can fit better.
How Do I Choose a Google Ads Agency?
Ask for a redacted change log, a feed edit with its reason, and a sample report. Get the full fee, minimum spend and exit terms in writing. Check that you keep ownership of the ad account. Judge what the team can show, not the size of its promise.
Is There a Minimum Ad Spend to Hire a Google Ads Agency?
Google sets none, but many agencies do. On 13 November 2026, SmartSites listed $2,500 a month for ecommerce campaigns and Vysta named at least £10k a month in existing ad spend. ZenoX only takes stores spending €20,000 a month or more on Google Ads.
