About Zeldigital

ZELDIGITAL is a Google Ads consultancy in Cebu City, on Borbajo Street in Talamban. Hanzel Lacida founded it. It runs a solo, fractional model with one accountable specialist and no junior account managers (some listings say two to nine people). The firm holds a US limited liability company for American clients and serves the Philippines and the United States.

It launched in 2020. The founder has more than ten years in paid search and has managed over 10 million US dollars in ad spend. About 90 percent of the work is Google Ads, covering Search, Shopping, Performance Max, Display and YouTube. The rest goes to Microsoft Advertising, Meta, LinkedIn and remarketing. SEO is also offered, but the business is built almost entirely around paid search.

New accounts follow a set schedule. Week one covers a discovery session and an audit of the existing account to find wasted spend. The strategy and budget plan is done by week two, and campaigns are built and launched in weeks two and three. Bids are tracked daily and refined weekly after that. Monthly reports come as Looker Studio dashboards on leads and sales. Work for multi-location businesses includes Google Merchant Center fixes, call tracking and attribution.

The firm suits a dental practice or group that mainly wants patient enquiries from paid search and is willing to fund a meaningful ad budget. It is less suited to a practice whose priority is organic or map rankings. Its main clients are e-commerce brands, lead-generation businesses, retailers and agencies, and it does not mention dentistry. Dental, medical and health care are small parts of its client mix.

Published proof is limited. On The Manifest and Clutch, a safes and security retailer rated the firm 4.5 overall. The client's sales rose from nothing to more than 100,000 US dollars in 2022, and its advertising returns improved. The reviewer valued the detailed monthly reports, regular strategy meetings and budget-friendly pricing. There are also case study titles on music streaming and e-commerce growth, without details.

Pricing is published as monthly retainers in Philippine pesos. Starter costs 35,000 pesos for up to two campaigns with monthly reports. Growth costs 75,000 pesos and adds Shopping, Performance Max and YouTube, weekly reports and a roadmap. An ads-led Fractional CMO tier costs 120,000 pesos and includes fortnightly executive syncs. There are no lock-in contracts, clients can cancel at any time, and a free ten-minute intro call is offered. Ad spend is billed separately and no minimum is published.
