One of the largest myths about Google Ads is that you need to have a fully developed site before you start. That’s not always the case. In 2025, you can employ Google Ads and run without a site and still generate leads, calls, and sales—if you do it right.
This is especially useful for small business owners, local service providers, and freelancers who are yet to be on the web but would enjoy starting advertising right away.
Here’s how you can do it
Use Google My Business (Now Google Business Profile)
If you own a local business, your Google Business Profile is your most powerful tool. Once verified, you can promote it directly with “Local Ads” or “Smart Campaigns.”
These advertisements appear when someone searches for phrases like:
- “Nearby hair salon”
- “Top-rated gym in [city]”
- “24/7 plumber in [location]”
When you run ads connected to your Business Profile, customers can call you, view directions, or visit your profile without ever visiting a website.
Benefits:
- No website necessary
- Perfect for local businesses
- Easy setup with Google Ads Express
- Binds to Maps and local search
- LSI keywords included: Google My Business ads, run ads no website
Take advantage of Google Ads Lead Form Extensions
Google introduced Lead Form Extensions to capture customer information without a landing page.
Here’s how it works:
- Someone sees your ad
- They click on it and get a form to pop up
- They enter name, email, or phone number
- You have the lead in real-time
It’s perfect for businesses offering free consultation, service quote, or call-back request.
You can also send the form to your CRM or email program so you can react quickly. That solves the Google Ads content issue most face when they don’t have a separate landing page.
Tip: This feature applies to Search, YouTube, and Discovery campaigns.
Use Call-Only Ads for Instant Phone Leads
If your company offers a phone service—like repairs, deliveries, or law advice—Call-Only Ads can create hot leads without a website.
Your ad will show a phone icon and on tap, it initiates an instant call to your company. You can create call-only ads to operate during work hours.
Best for:
- Doctors
- Home services
- Lawyers
- Cab and towing services
It’s a low-friction setup that eliminates landing pages entirely.
Use YouTube Ads with CTA Overlays
Need to drive a product or service without taking users to a website? Use YouTube Ads with call-to-action (CTA) overlays.
You can
- Get users to call you
- Direct them to your Google Business Profile
- Offer lead form fills (like “Get a Quote”)
This is an excellent way of performing Google Ads without a website and still receive an enormous amount of people viewing video content.
If you have an existing YouTube channel, you can also build brand awareness and trust prior to your website going live.
Sell on Third-Party Sites
Suppose you are selling products but do not have an eCommerce website yet.
This is how you can continue making money with Google Ads:
- Sell on platforms like Amazon, Flipkart, or Etsy
- Use Google Shopping Ads or Display Ads with those product URLs
- Directly send traffic to your seller pages and not your own website
This way, your inventory gets traffic and you don’t have to worry about checkout, hosting, or payment gateways.

Make a Basic Landing Page on Google Sites
If you don’t have a complete website, just make a basic landing page using free tools like Google Sites or Carrd.co.
Google Sites is simple to combine with Google Ads policies and ensures that you do not have the “Google Ads content issue” where your ads become disapproved for poor landing page experience.
This isn’t required—but if you want greater control and better analytics, a one-page website can help.
Key Takeaways
You can advertise without a website through the use of tools like Google Business Profile, lead form extensions, call-only ads, and YouTube advertising.
Make sure your Google Ads account is well-verified with up-to-date business info, phone numbers, and location information.
Always follow Google’s ad policies to avoid disapproval.
You don’t need to wait for your site to get ready if you’re a newbie or in the testing phase. Use the above techniques to achieve results earlier—no code or domain necessary.
