FAQ
Questions about paid search
- What does Donut Analytics do in paid search?
- We plan, build and optimize Google Ads campaigns: search campaigns with Responsive Search Ads and ad extensions, and Performance Max. We tag every campaign for Google Analytics and tie the results back to revenue.
- Do you run Performance Max campaigns?
- Yes, where it fits. We judge Performance Max on real sales, alongside search.
- Do you run ads on ChatGPT?
- Yes. We build and run ChatGPT ads in OpenAI's Ads Manager, with UTM-tagged links and conversion tags in Google Tag Manager, so they're tracked like the rest of your search.
- How do you know if paid search is working?
- Clean tracking first: UTM-tagged links and Google Analytics. When most sales happen offline or in stores, a media mix model measures advertising against all sales, not just what the ad platform can see.
- How does search fit with your other channels?
- Search is one part of one plan across every channel, online and off. We plan, buy and measure it alongside social, video, TV, streaming, out of home, audio and print.
