Paid Social & Search Campaigns
We run targeted campaigns across a mix of paid media platforms from Google to TikTok, so you can be confident of better brand awareness, student engagement and ROI for your business.
Unrivalled knowledge to deliver targeted campaigns
We hold 100s of data points that let you reach and remarket to the right individuals with tailored messages, based on their demographics, interests and interactions.
Refine your search by application status, subject, study level and career interest, university and location – driving high-quality engagement that’s more likely to resonate and therefore lead to conversions. You can also target specific content types on ucas.com, influencers (parents and advisers) and by age, device or those who have previously engaged.
