WordPress Website Design Review from Shellsea Moala
I am very pleased with our website. They really captured what we wanted and we don’t have anything bad to say about them. They were prompt with communication and for a small business, gave us a really good deal on our website.

WordPress Website Design Review from Gaston Magrinat
The team is personable. The visual design is professional. When the engagement was going smoothly, communication was responsive and the relationship was positive. That is the full extent of what I can recommend.
$16,610 paid across a website build and eight-month SEO programme. When the structural failures emerged commercial content hidden from search engines from day one, a broken contact form for four months, core deliverables marked complete in their own system that had never been done the pattern became consistent and never changed. Friendly responses. Reassurance. Deferral. Not in scope. Next month.
When I submitted a formal nine-section evidence package drawn from BRJ's own contracts and internal records, their response was to propose continuing the retainer at $995 per month to complete the outstanding contracted work. Every item in that proposal was already in the original contract. That proposal was their own written admission that eight months of billing had not delivered what was contracted.
When I declined and requested a refund, their formal written response claimed the Scope of Work was fully executed. Their own internal documents list the same deliverables as outstanding in April 2026 that were marked complete throughout the engagement. Both documents are BRJ's. Both cannot be true.
Not one specific failure was acknowledged. Not one item of evidence was addressed.
Mistakes happen in every agency engagement. What defines an agency is what they do when mistakes are documented and presented. This agency's answer across every avenue, verbal and written was to engage with none of it.
Before signing, ask specifically what accountability looks like when contracted work is not delivered. That answer matters more than anything in the sales process.

WordPress Website Design Review from Jason Kremers
Working with Big Red Jelly was awesome. Very engaging and collaborative, I felt confident in their team throughout the process, and from week 1, was blown away on the speed of progress. Stephen Sobisky is a wizard on website development! Also, I have been very impressed post-launch with their responsiveness to support requests or questions with further tweaks.

Web Design Review from Max Golovan
We hired Traffic Dojo for our website, SEO, and social media marketing. They designed, developed, configured and launched a new website for us. The project began with understanding requirements, doing wireframes and prototyping. Once we approved the workflows, wireframes, and mockups, the actual work began from their side. In couple of weeks a functional version was ready with dummy content for user testing. Improvements were made as per our guidelines and responsiveness were tested along side the testing. Final version of site was made live in another 2-3 weeks time after our approval. SEO work was started and mapped every month.

Digital Marketing Review from Austin Arthur
We hired Traffic Dojo to help with SEO services and manage our Google ads efficiently, Our main goals were to make our website visible and help achieve our business marketing goals as well. We took the help of Traffic Dojo to get experts on board who can help us with our ultimate goal. With their help, we were able to make our website appear higher in SERPs organically. We ran Google Ads to promote some of our services, but the rest of the website was optimized to rank organically. They used a lot of methods and it took time, but in the end, it worked. Traffic Dojo gave us a timeline and they delivered within that.

Web Design Review from Rae Felte
Traffic Dojo built our website from scratch using Craft. When I first talked to them, We spent almost an hour talking, and they answered my questions. I knew what I wanted, but I didn't know how to get there, so Traffic Dojo told me what they thought. After our first conversation, they made a proposal and mailed it to me. They walked me through the project and what to expect. Then, they put together a platform and sent it for review. The website was an information page and also, users could contact us through email to send information. Traffic Dojo knew what they were doing. They listened to what we wanted and made it work. Overall, they were good at their job, and we made an excellent team.

Waris Ali's Review Sourced from Google
I applied for an SEO Specialist position and received a rejection email without any interview or initial discussion. While I understand that companies receive many applications, it would be helpful for candidates to receive more transparency regarding the selection process and the key qualifications being prioritized. I appreciate the response but was disappointed not to have the opportunity to discuss my experience and skills.

Mario Inchausti's Review Sourced from Google
Perhaps there are other things they do well. We hired 829 to build our website & it was by far one of the most ridiculous experiences I’ve ever faced. Staff was incompetent & condescending for good measure. They took a year and change to deliver a site that is horrifyingly unstable. Horrible.
Edit: so many 5 star reviews should make one suspicious. They gave me more attention in an effort to get me to delete this review than when we genuinely needed it. Really horrible organization and I use my experience with them often as a cautionary tale. To recap: 829 offered services they were unqualified to deliver, overcharged for those and spent more time trying to upsell and pad their team with as many warm bodies as they could charge us for. Still salty about it…

Caitlin Walker's Review Sourced from Google
Our team chose 829 after interviewing many agencies for the complete rebrand, new website build, SEO improvements, and PR guidance and strategy. Collaborating on the design of the website was surprisingly productive, we needed one or two additional rounds then was first planned and we ended up with a design we all agreed delivered on the requested notes. From brand to website, clean and fresh aesthetic. Our SEO performance was immediately light years improved and continued to grow. The team brought excellent ideas forward and worked well with our opinionated colleagues with clear vision and preferences. I personally enjoyed the 829 staff assigned to our projects and appreciated the ease of working with them through delivery and post delivery management. I would hire them again and I would recommend them without hesitation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Affiliate Marketing Firms
What services do affiliate marketing companies provide?
Affiliate marketing agencies provide a broad spectrum of services aimed at elevating businesses’ commissions and revenue through a network of partners or affiliates.
While many people associate affiliates strictly with social media influencers and public figures, professional affiliate marketing agencies manage a much broader ecosystem of niche content creators, review sites, coupon and loyalty portals, and larger media publishers.
These partners promote a product or service to their established audiences, earning a commission only when a verified sale or lead is generated through their unique tracking affiliate link. An affiliate program generally follows a B2C (business-to-consumer) model, but B2B arrangements also exist.
Key services of affiliate marketing companies encompass:
Program setup
Affiliate marketing strategy
Partners recruitment
Commission management
Affiliate vetting
Performance reporting
What types of affiliate marketing are there?
Affiliate marketing is traditionally categorized by the relationship between the marketer and the product, as well as the promotional medium used. Professional affiliate engagement typically falls into three distinct categories:
Involved affiliate marketing: This model relies on firsthand experience. The affiliate uses and endorses the product through reviews and tutorials. This type has shown to deliver a better conversion rate and make the business a trusted brand.
Related affiliate marketing: The marketer operates within the same industry or niche as the product but does not necessarily use it personally. For example, a financial blog may promote a specific credit card to its established audience.
Unattached affiliate marketing: A purely performance-based model where the affiliate has no direct connection to the product or its niche. The affiliate runs pay-per-click (PPC) campaigns and places the affiliate link in ads, hoping consumers click and purchase.
How much do these services cost?
Across industries, the median affiliate commission rates stand at 5% to 30% of the sale amount. This percentage tends to be higher when collaborating with retail, beauty, and fashion brands, while B2B, electronics and other high-end products pay on the lower end. And that's only for the commissions payout.
To this sum, businesses need to factor in an additional $2,000 to $10,000 per month for the affiliate marketing company. The scope usually dictates the service fee, finalized based on the number of affiliates, campaign setup, creative production, reporting, and optimization.
In terms of the payment method, there are a few main models to choose from:
Pay-per-sale: Pays a percentage of earn commissions
Pay-per-lead: Pays for qualified referrals
Pay-per-click: Offers small payments per each visitor
Pay-per-install: Pays for each app/software download and install
How are commissions usually tiered?
Affiliate marketing companies usually structure the commission based on the complexity of the conversion and the level of creator influence. Here are the average commissions and payouts businesses can expect:
Reach and engagement: 5% to 20%
Revenue-share tiers: 15% to 30%
Flat fee or revenue-share agreements: Around 15%
Referred sale commission: 5% to 25%
Performance-based influencer compensation: 5% to 20%
What is the difference between affiliate marketing and influencer marketing?
The main distinction between affiliate marketing and influencer marketing lies in the primary objective and the corresponding compensation structure.
Affiliate marketing is primarily a performance-oriented model whereaffiliates earn commissions exclusively for prompting specific actions. The engagement delivers immediate return on investment (ROI) and functions as a direct sales channel. Consequently, the relationship between the brand and the affiliate is purely transactional.
By contrast, influencer marketing uses a creator's social influence and audience to cultivate brand awareness and brand trust. Compensation in this model typically involves an upfront flat fee or product gifting in exchange for creative content and visibility.
In essence, affiliate marketing agencies focus on the bottom of the sales funnel, while influencer agencies target the top by putting more emphasis on the narrative and brand resonance.
