Common questions
How much does google ads management cost?
With a freelancer, google ads management costs ₹5,000–₹15,000 per month (ad spend extra) for basic work, ₹15,000–₹40,000 for standard work and ₹40,000–₹1,50,000 for premium work. Hourly rates run from ₹400 to ₹4,500 an hour.
How long does google ads management take?
Typically set-up in 3–7 days, then monthly, depending on the scope, the number of revisions and how quickly you send feedback and material.
Is a freelancer cheaper than an agency?
Usually. A freelancer often costs 30–60% less than an agency for the same scope, because there is no office, sales team or account manager to pay for. An agency makes sense when you need several skills managed together.
Should I pay a fixed price or by the hour?
Pay a fixed price when the scope is clear, and split it into milestones you approve one by one. Pay by the hour for ongoing or open-ended work, with a weekly cap.
