Are Digital Marketing certifications enough?
Hell No.
More over, You really need to figure out which certifications to do and do them sincerely. You should be ready to handle (not just answer) questions on that particular topic. Then yes.. this should cut the deal.
You have successfully completed the certifications. Then what?
You need to showcase them. This is simple but widely ignored. You should take utmost care in updating the certifications on every professional platform especially Linkedin. Further, I suggest do not just update in the certifications tab. Post it in the feed congratulating yourself. Nothing wrong in it. You will be surprised at the fact that many people will admire it.

Update your CV with correct credentials.
Few courses online for free in 2021
If you are absolute beginner, I would suggest you start with Google digital garage. This is an excellent initiative by Google. It’s around 45 hours course and discusses every aspect of digital marketing in short. This course might not give you enough in-depth knowledge about any topic but a perfect course for basics.
Hubspot inbound marketing course is another excellent free course to understand Inbound marketing in depth. They do have a certification for the same. This course will give you a clear picture on how Inbound works.
Alison Diploma In E-Business course deals with every topic in depth for free. But they charge around 50$ for the diploma. If you want to take your CV to next level in Digital Marketing, then I suggest to go for this. But a warning though, Alison diploma is not recognized as a valid diploma. But still it gives enough push to your CV.
I suggest to follow digital marketing topic on Quora and also write answers on whichever questions you feel you can. It’s a great platform to showcase your certification knowledge. It might even land you a job. Yes it might.
