Stop paying for clicks you already own.

Most companies pay Google for clicks they would have got for free. TotalSearch finds them, and moves the money to where it brings new customers.

The total view

Every channel in one place. Data that works together.

SEO, SEM, GA4 and AI search are merged per keyword. One team sees what the other knows, and the information flows both ways. So you make decisions for the whole, not one channel at a time.

The problem

You pay for clicks you would have got for free.

Most advertisers bid on their own brand even when they rank number one organically, and they are increasingly cited in AI answers. The overlap is invisible in Google Ads alone. In TotalSearch you see it per keyword, and free it up in one click.

From insight to action

Free up the keyword. See what you save.

When a keyword already ranks top 3 organically, you add it as a negative keyword across the whole Google Ads account in one click. TotalSearch logs who, when and how, and calculates the saving from the keyword's full history.

✓Account level: applies to every campaign, including Shopping and Performance Max.
✓Choose exact, phrase or broad, and see what the searches cost before you decide.
✓Dry run first. Undo at any time and the ads are back on.

From saving to growth

Don't just save. Move the money to growth.

It's not about cutting the search budget, it's about spending it smarter. Money that goes to clicks you already get for free moves to generic keywords where you're not yet visible. The result is more conversions in total, for the same budget.

SEO, SEM, AI search. Who's in control?

Search has never had more surfaces, or more silos. The film shows why they stay apart, and how TotalSearch brings them together.

Everything in one place

Not just SEO and SEM. AI search too.

Search happens in Google, in AI Overviews and in ChatGPT. TotalSearch brings paid, organic, traffic and AI visibility together, with an agent per channel that goes through the numbers and tells you what to fix.

Questions and answers

What people ask before the demo.

We use all the paid history on the keyword, across all campaigns. The monthly average is multiplied by the months the keyword has been freed, and spend that still leaks through is subtracted. Keywords that were never bought count as zero.

AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) is about being the answer in Google's AI Overviews and answer boxes. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) is about being mentioned and cited in ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity. TotalSearch measures both, alongside SEO, SEM and GA4.

Google Ads, Google Search Console and GA4 connect with Google sign-in. We only read what you choose, and never change anything in Search Console or GA4. Changes in Google Ads only happen when you confirm them, and everything is logged.

Under two minutes. Connect Google, pick the website, Google Ads account and GA4, and the first recommendations per keyword are ready once the data is in.

Yes. The agency plan gives multiple clients, users and roles in one login, with a project per brand. Custom pricing.

The story behind TotalSearch

Seven years, one idea: search budgets should drive growth.

TotalSearch started with Ibrahim El Kadi. Over his career he has managed many hundreds of millions of kroner in media budgets for some of Norway's largest brands, and time and again he saw the same thing: SEO and SEM were run separately, and the ad budget paid for clicks the brand already got for free.

For almost seven years he has developed and tested a method for seeing paid and organic search as one, and moving the money to where it actually brings new customers. It has been tried in the accounts of some of the country's largest advertisers, with strong results. TotalSearch is that method, built into a tool.

The recipe

We don't share the method.

It's built on seven years of tests in real accounts, with real budgets. Which searches can be freed, when the ad has to come back, and where the money works hardest is experience we have paid for. We doubt an AI agent can copy it. That's why our agents are the ones using it.
