NTD Digital Reviews
Loved By Great Brands.
“Albany Subaru has worked with NTD Digital for over two years and their valued service has been instrumental in our growth. When we started with them, our web presence was marginal, lead volume was down and website visits were sporadic and short lived at best. Once engaged, we felt the difference in lead volume and web traffic immediately and this continues to this day. Lead volume increased over 35%, page views and duration went up and our search listing went from second page to #1 on page. If describe their service with one word it would be intense. Always available, meetings are efficient and fact filled, their reports being detailed and comprehensive.”
“Every month they will go over the campaign results with us and let us know their feedback on where and how to improve. During our past partnership, our sales revenue has grown more than 30% and this result is directly related to our partnership with NTD Digital. We really appreciate their great efforts and contribution.”
“Bob Yolanda and the entire team have been nothing short of incredible. We captured twice as much as the last production company did in 2020. They are so talented. No ego. Just wanted to do the best they could. Lot of filmmakers have big egos and are very arrogant and hard to work with. Such a pleasure working with them. Oh btw our owner was in the store and saw one of the 8 install/delivery videos you guys did and absolutely loved it! Y'all did so good on those video series. It's actually made a difference in our delivery/install failure rate has gone down.”
“Working with NTD Digital since 2015, what impressed me most was the talent of your team. The first time you produced a video for me, I saw the scriptwriting, the serious directing on set, the whole setup and lighting — I knew right away you were exceptionally professional. The first video has now been watched by over 280,000 people. The second has over 70,000 views. By promoting my videos online, clients who had never heard of me found my work and reached out — it's made a tremendous difference. From tens of thousands in annual revenue in 2015 to over one million in 2019 — the growth speaks for itself.”
“We've run ads in other media for over ten years with minimal results. But since partnering with NTD Digital in 2017 for GDN and Facebook advertising, the difference has been remarkable. Their team visits our clinic regularly, responds immediately to any changes we need, and keeps refining until we're fully satisfied. Since advertising with NTD Digital, patient volume from advertising has increased by one third — roughly 1,000 additional patients per year. We are very, very satisfied.”
FAQs
From San Jose businesses.
Do you have clients in San Jose?
Yes. NTD Digital has long-standing partnerships with established San Jose brands across appliances, home services, and restaurants — plus public-sector experience working with Santa Clara County. For brands that want more than paid search, see our full-stack San Jose digital marketing agency and San Jose influencer marketing pages.
What PPC services does NTD Digital offer in San Jose?
We manage paid search, paid social, programmatic, and CTV end-to-end for San Jose businesses. Our PPC services include
- Google Ads — Search, Performance Max, Shopping, YouTube, and Display
- Microsoft Ads (Bing) — often overlooked but high-intent for B2B and older demographics
- Meta Ads — Facebook and Instagram
- TikTok Ads — short-form video acquisition
- LinkedIn Ads — B2B and recruiting
- Connected TV / OTT — Roku, Hulu, YouTube TV — brand reach for regional services, auto, medspa, and home improvement

Do San Jose businesses still need a PPC agency in 2026?
Yes — but what makes an agency worth hiring has shifted. AI-driven tools like Performance Max, AI Max, and Smart Bidding now handle most day-to-day mechanics, so the value of a real PPC agency in 2026 lives somewhere else:
- Knowing which Google defaults to turn off before they drain your budget
- Wiring conversion tracking that AI can actually learn from
- Coordinating PPC with SEO/GEO, social, and CRO so they reinforce each other
- Producing the creative and landing pages AI still can't make for you
- Vertical-specific knowledge that AI doesn't have
What are the advantages and disadvantages of PPC?
PPC (pay-per-click) is paid advertising where advertisers pay only when a user clicks their ad — on Google, Microsoft Ads (Bing), Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, and others.
Advantages of PPC:
Advantages of PPC:
- Fast. Campaigns launch in 24–48 hours.
- Targeted. Reach buyers actively searching.
- Measurable. Track every click, conversion, and dollar.
- Controllable. Pause, scale, or pivot anytime.
- Compounding. Each campaign sharpens the next.
- Rising CPCs. Especially in competitive verticals like legal, dental, and real estate.
- Bidding wars. Costs spike in saturated markets.
- Easy to misconfigure. Broad match, untuned Performance Max, and missing negatives burn budget fast.
- No organic equity. Traffic stops the moment spend stops.
- AI dependency. Smart Bidding fails when conversion tracking is broken.
Why hire a PPC agency in San Jose instead of running Google Ads in-house?
If any of the following sounds familiar, we'd like to help:
- AI made ads easy — and easy to burn. AI Max and Performance Max promise hands-off campaigns, but the defaults can drain a daily budget in hours when conversion signals aren't tuned.
- The Google Ads dashboard changes every week. New buttons, flipped defaults, and "recommendations" that aren't actually optional — keeping up alone is a full-time job.
- Your keywords look right, but no leads come. Broad match wastes budget on browsers, exact match starves you of volume, and the search-term report is full of queries you'd never want to pay for.
- You've been told your site won't convert. Slow load, weak hook, missing trust signals, or form friction can quietly halve your ROAS without anyone noticing.
How much should a San Jose business budget for PPC?
PPC budgets aren't one-size-fits-all. Different industries face very different CPC levels, and companies at different growth stages need very different starting investments. We tailor every strategy to your specific situation. Reach out for a free, custom quote based on your industry, goals, and current account state.
Are you a Google Premier Partner?
Yes. NTD Digital is a Google Premier Partner — a designation reserved for the top 3% of Google Ads agencies in the United States, based on performance, spend, and certifications. Premier status means our team has direct access to Google account strategists, beta features, and escalation support that standard agencies do not.
