FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Which advertising platform is the best?
It depends! For best results, we focus on a few key ideas to determine which platforms to advertise on: Where online is your target audience? (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, LinkedIn, etc.) What is the end goal? (website traffic, book appointments, make sales, etc.) What medium will we use for the content? (video, pictures, text, etc.) Successful ad campaigns are built by weighing all aspects of the ad, not just by sticking with one platform or another.
How much of my time is involved?
That's up to you! Golden Digital can handle everything from creating the offer idea to publishing the campaign and managing the budget and bid strategies. We're happy to work with you on any part you're interested in. Most clients prefer to be hands-on in the offer ideation process and then let us take care of everything else.
How much does an ad campaign cost?
Golden Digital charges ZERO dollars up-front for all qualified clients. We only get paid if you get paid! If the ads work and make sales, Golden Digital will either take a flat monthly retainer, a percentage of adspend, OR a performance-based percentage fee. We work with you to determine the most fair and appropriate payment method for the project.
How much does a website cost?
The answer to this question is different for everybody! Since every client’s needs are unique, we do not set a minimum price requirement for web design or development projects. This helps make our services available and affordable to as many brands as possible.
Are the websites you make safe and secure?
Absolutely—security is our number one priority when creating websites and web applications. Our web development methods strictly follow the best practices for software design, resulting in bulletproof web applications deployable to any web-hosting server. However, security concerns persist on the server side as well. Since we currently do not offer custom back-end development, we make sure to use only the most dependable and secure hosting services available, such as those offered by Netlify or Amazon Web Services (AWS).
I already have a website up. It’s not exactly what I want, but it seems to get the job done.
You are not alone—many people we speak with fall into this category. But here’s the hard truth: it’s 2023, and as time goes on, your online presence matters more and more to your customers. Your website is the centerpiece of your digital presence and is a reflection of your company and yourself! If your website isn’t fully optimized and tailored to your brand’s needs, you are leaving money on the table.
Why shouldn’t I just make my website myself with a website-building tool?
You should! -- If it’s feasible and worth it for you to do so. Most small business leaders, however, have far too much on their plates to face the idea of designing a modern, responsive website, then making it come to life in workable fashion by tinkering with a website builder. Also, website builders often promise that they allow you to fully customize your site, but many times users find that their functionality is strictly limited. If you value your time as a businessperson, it’s an easy choice to pay an honest professional to get the job done properly.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes we do. For almost every service, we require a 20% deposit of the estimated total price of the project due before starting. This is less than half of the industry-standard deposit of 50%! The remaining 80% of the total amount can be paid through various types of payment plans. Feel free to ask about discounts, too!
Can you get my app on the App Store?
We are currently in the process of building a dedicated team for mobile app development and deployment. So unfortunately we have to chalk this one up as “COMING SOON”.
What tools do you use to build websites?
We usually code all of our websites by hand in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. This makes your site blazing fast and unique to you! We are also experienced with website builders such as Wordpress, Shopify, and many more. Unlike many web developers, we don’t overcomplicate things with bulky frameworks that slow down your site and introduce more problems than they solve. Depending on the situation, we may use a trusted JavaScript library such as React. All of our media editing is completed in-house with the incredible Adobe software suite.
Can the phone consultation happen in person or on video chat?
Absolutely! If you’re local to our home base of Orange County, CA, let’s schedule a time and place to meet up! We’re also available to meet by video chat any Monday through Friday from 8:00am - 6:00pm PST.
