Track and Compare Local Service Ads with SplashDash’s New LSA Rankings Action

Lauren Kazemekas • November 19, 2024

Understanding how your business performs against competitors is crucial in today’s competitive local market. With SplashDash’s new LSA Rankings Action, you can now easily analyze Google Local Service Ads (LSAs) for specific categories in your area. This groundbreaking tool provides instant access to detailed profiles, comparisons, and insights that are otherwise difficult to find manually.

What Are Local Service Ads (LSAs)?

LSAs are a key way for local businesses to get noticed on Google. These paid ads appear at the top of search results, helping businesses connect with customers looking for specific services. However, finding and analyzing LSAs for a category and location can be challenging since Google’s algorithm customizes what is displayed for individual searches.


The LSA Rankings Action changes this by pulling all available LSAs in one place, making it easier to assess competitors and benchmark your performance.

What Industries Are Eligible for Local Service Ads?

LSAs are available for a variety of service-based businesses. When working with local clients, it is important to know which businesses are eligible:

How to Use the LSA Rankings Action

  1. Choose Your Business Category and Location
    Start by entering the category of service (e.g., “Plumber”) and the location you want to analyze. The tool pulls LSAs for top businesses in your selected market.
    Note: Not every business category on Google is eligible for LSA.

2. Analyze Competitor Profiles
Review each LSA to compare reviews, ratings, and services. Toggle between businesses to see detailed information, such as review highlights and operating hours.

3. Monitor Averages and Trends
Use the average review count and rating metrics to benchmark your performance. Over time, track improvements in visibility or customer perception by comparing your metrics to these averages.

4. Share Reports with Stakeholders
Generate professional reports that analyze the report and provides trends with AI, perfect for client meetings or strategic planning sessions.

Key Features of the LSA Rankings Action

Here’s what you can do with this new feature:

  • View All LSAs in One Place
    No need to manually search and hope for the right results. The tool gathers every LSA for your chosen business category (e.g., plumbers, med spas, or HVAC) in your area and displays them in an easy-to-read dashboard. 
  • Compare Ratings and Reviews
    Benchmark competitors by reviewing star ratings, total review counts, and other performance indicators. You’ll also see average numbers across competitors in the same category, making it simple to identify where you stand out—or where improvements are needed.
  • Detailed Business Profiles
    Access highlights for each business, such as services offered, hours of operation, and unique selling points like “family-owned” or “military discounts available.” This helps you understand what resonates with customers in your market.
  • Track Performance Trends
    Identify how businesses rank over time and monitor competitors’ positions to see shifts in the local advertising landscape.
