FAQ
Common questions
Is a Google Ads campaign worth it for a small business?
Usually, yes — when it’s set up well. Ads put you at the top of search results for the exact things customers are looking for, and you only pay when someone clicks. The key is tight targeting and ongoing management so budget isn’t wasted.
Can I start with a small budget?
Absolutely. You decide what you’re comfortable spending each month. We start focused, measure what works, and scale up only what’s producing results.
Do you work with nonprofits?
Yes — it’s a big part of what I do. I work with nonprofits on websites, Google Ads (including Google Ad Grants), SEO, and connecting donor systems to their outreach.
What makes RotenDigital different?
Most marketing shops hand off anything technical. I’ve spent 20+ years writing code and leading software delivery, so the website, tracking, integrations, and campaigns are all handled by the same person.
