Profitable Sites Information

Profitable Sites is a solo consultancy for owner-operated Shopify brands and UK service businesses. Google Ads, SEO, and websites, run by one operator — David Friend — working directly with founders across the UK and US. Google Partner since 2013. 12 years on Shopify. 20+ years in search. The methodology is Track. Fix. Scale. Nine out of ten accounts we audit have broken tracking — whoever set it up didn't get it right. So that's where we start. Once the numbers can be trusted, we rebuild campaigns on clean data, around what actually sells and what actually makes the business money. Then we scale paid as patterns emerge, and bring in CRO and SEO once revenue's flowing. Two lanes, same methodology: Owner-operated Shopify brands, roughly £500K–£10M, UK and US. Anchor case: an anonymous UK jewellery brand, $0 to $35M and an exit. Ranked #1 UK and US for moissanite engagement-ring keywords. UK local service businesses — plumbers, electricians, security firms, appliance repair. Fast HTML sites with real tracking, local SEO that actually ranks, and Google Ads built around local intent. Priced for owner-run firms. No account managers. No middle layer. The person auditing your account is the person running it. Get a free Google Ads audit → profitablesites.com
