exact Google Ads and PPC themes

The V1 ad group keeps Google Ads, logistics PPC and trucking PPC searches together for tight message match.

Generic PPC traffic is expensive. Freight intent has to be controlled.

A general agency can send every trucking click to the same page. Unbound separates equipment, service, geography and commercial intent, then removes driver recruiting, insurance, dispatch, software and load-board searches before they consume the budget.

Based on a review of 18 competing agency websites in August 2026. Figures cover only what those agencies publish themselves: 8 of the 18 publish no price at all, and 11 publish no contract term, so nothing here should be read as a claim about any one competitor.

Questions before a test

Straight answers, before any media spend.

What is included in the free Freight Search Scan?

The scan shows relevant searches, estimated CPCs, visible advertisers, likely negative keywords and the smallest credible 30-day test for your services and markets.

Does this include driver recruiting?

No. The campaign is built for commercial shipper demand. Driver jobs, CDL training, insurance, dispatching, software and load-board intent are excluded.

How quickly can the campaign launch?

The target is two to three weeks after access, offer and tracking are approved. The campaign does not spend until the call and form conversions have been tested.

What does it cost?

Google Ads management starts at $495 per month. A website build starts at $2,000, with ongoing management at $200 per month.

Am I locked into a contract?

No. Everything is month to month, with no contract and no minimum term.

How do I reach a person before committing to anything?

Email kyle@unboundlogistics.com. The free search scan and the 20-minute review both cost nothing.
