Services / Search & Maps Advertising

Search and Maps ads should produce website reservations and visits.

Help people looking for a restaurant, hotel or event space reach the right page. Jay Street Media plans paid search around the business you need, with dining-room, hotel and event outcomes kept distinct.

When do Search and Maps ads fit a restaurant?

Start with the business the restaurant needs. Agree the campaign objective, page and conversion definition before launch. We can work alongside your marketing and web teams, with the restaurant retaining its accounts and clear responsibilities for implementation.

Foot traffic campaigns and private-event campaigns stay on different scoreboards

Shape campaigns around the guest's intent and a useful destination. A dinner reservation, a hotel booking and a private-event inquiry need different information and measurement.

Google is still the core demand source for most operators. Apple Maps ads have been live since August 2026 and belong in the same system once the free listing is complete. ChatGPT ads stay a small tracked test, not a budget shift.

Search terms are read every week so spend moves toward queries that produce those outcomes and away from terms that only create noise. For restaurants, we do not buy the name. Hotels do, because travel sites bid on it, and that spend sits on its own line.

Hire this when you want that scoreboard and you own the ad account. Skip it if you want someone to "just spend the budget," or if the real bottleneck is press.

If you are choosing the kind of partner, start with how to choose among restaurant marketing agencies. Groups comparing location-level plans can use which marketing partner a restaurant group should choose.

What kinds of searches does Jay Street build campaigns around?

Nearby dining, private dining, tasting menus, hotel bars, catering, group dinners, and other searches where the guest is close to choosing.

How is performance measured?

We separate reservation-link clicks from completed bookings where confirmation is available, and keep calls, directions and platform-reported visits distinct. Events count sent inquiries, with qualification and booking feedback from the venue. Hotel bookings have their own definition. Explain missing data before using the numbers to change budget.

Do Search and Maps ads include Apple Maps and ChatGPT ads?

Those platforms can be evaluated as separate tests when access, budget and measurement support them. Apple Maps and ChatGPT have their own account requirements and controls. The agreed scope should say which platforms are included, what each test needs to establish and when the results will be reviewed.
