eCommerce Development Review from Undisclosed
We have been working with First Pier for almost 10 years now, beginning with the launch of our women’s boutique E-Commerce business. First Pier has been responsible for our e-commerce store design, web development, e-commerce SEO, digital strategy, online marketing campaigns and beyond ever since. As a already successful brick and mortar retailer, we saw an opportunity to reach beyond our existing customer bases in Portland, Maine & Portsmouth, New Hampshire by creating an online shopping experience accessible 24/7 and nationwide. First Pier has helped us turn that vision into reality by taking us from no online store and zero sales to a dependable thriving new channel for our business that continues to grow. Our experience with Shopify started when First Pier migrated our site from Magento to a Shopify website. Since First Pier is a designated Shopify Expert, we knew we could trust them with the daunting task of moving all of our products, accounts, and customer history to our new Shopify site. They made the transition to a new e-commerce system painless by ensuring our hands were held along the way, we were thoroughly trained, and none of the SEO ranking keywords were lost. We continue to work with First Pier on expanding our use of Google Shopping SEO and will be implementing Shopify’s Point of Sale in the coming year as part of a continued effort to deliver a unified customer experience at our stores. As a small women’s boutique based in Maine, we are now able to deliver our customer experience to tourist and seasonal customers where they are year round. We would recommend First Pier to anyone looking to build or update a Shopify store.

Shopify Review from Undisclosed
First Pier helped us move, update, and launch our online business on Shopify. As a high-traffic bakery, it was important to us that customers buying from around the country were able to view the quality of our products, feel the vibe of our Portland and South Portland shops, and trust that their order would be as special as a visit to our Maine bakery. First Pier delivered mouth-watering e-commerce product photography, an easy-to-use site, and supported us every step of the way. Our shoppable site is now optimized, accurately reflects our brand, and has poised us for growth.

We’ve worked with Rich, John and their flyte team for years and they are a breeze to work with especially when they introduce us to new technology like GA4 and AI. They also knocked it out of the park for us for our 23rd Annual Maine Family Business Awards with their strategic Linked in and Facebook ad campaigns. We received more than 500 nominations from all across Maine, smashing our previous record. They are proactive, use Basecamp (which helps keep us all on track) and they are so knowledgeable and quick to respond. We can’t say enough about this amazing team and how lucky we are to work with them!”

We needed help with growing our sales revenue for our small business, and we contacted flyte new media. They spent time helping us to clarify our goals and then they created a digital marketing plan for our website and online shopping experience, including Google Ads, SEO and blogging. As our sales team members were mostly novices on all the facets of digital marketing the flyte team provided a lot of education, and welcomed our questions. After working with flyte new media for 3 years we have seen our sales revenue increase measurably. We feel that flyte new media is a vital member of our marketing team, and have no hesitation in recommending them to any business in need of their services.

Sebago Technics was looking for a local website design company to help create and manage our new website and SEO efforts. Page One designed and implemented a very high-quality WordPress site that was easy to manage for our Marketing and IT team. It is a pleasure working with Mike, Victoria, and Koren who answer all of our questions and communicate with us throughout the entire process. We were extremely impressed by the team's ability to fix issues, make design changes incredibly quickly, and improve our SEO. After launching our new website in 2020, we are thrilled with the positive results so far. We plan on continuing to work with the team and would recommend them to anyone looking to enhance their presence on the web. The Page One team is professional, friendly, and gets the job done!

We’ve worked with Page One on a variety of web development projects for our clients over the last five years or so, and appreciate their high level of expertise and responsiveness. We work directly with Patrick and Jeremy, and they know their stuff. They’re easy to work with, they can speak plain English to non-developers, their estimates and invoices always line up, and most importantly they do great work. Happy to recommend them!
