SmartSites Reviews & Testimonials

Digital Services Review from Paloma Anguiano
Overall I feel very confident working with Patrizia and Darius from Smart Site, they have given us clear explanations and accompanied us throughout the process for the growth of the brand. The attention to us is very fast and they advise us in an adequate way.

Digital Services Review from Brianna Porter
SmartSites impressed me from day one. They are knowledgable, kind, and most importantly keep things simple and streamlined so that even an SEO-newb like me can understand. Tiffany and Luna are my main points of contact and they are especially great! I would recommend to anyone looking for an agency to really take their website and digital presence to the next level.

PPC Review from Jim Curry
At first, a survey was conducted to gather company background, product information, target markets, etc. Next, accounts were established on various Google Business platforms, social media, etc. Then SmartSites created the ads and campaigns, and we were off and running in just a few weeks.

SEO Review from Michael Brumleve
We have used HigherVisibility now going on 3 years. Our SEO rankings and eCommerce sales have been fantastic over that time span. More than I could [have] anticipated. This team knows what they are doing in the complex SEO and PPC world and are a huge asset to us. 3 years ago, we had basically 0 online presence. Now, we are consistently ranking #1 on Google for our best-selling products. (Verified via email)

We’ve had a great experience working with Baal & Spots. From the start, their team has been professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in helping us grow our business. They took the time to understand our goals and put together a strategy that actually delivers results—not just promises.Their communication has been clear and consistent, and they’re always quick to adjust or provide insight when needed. It’s refreshing to work with a marketing partner that feels like an extension of our own team rather than just a vendor.Overall, Baal & Spots has exceeded our expectations, and we’d highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and effective marketing company.

I have utilized Astoundz now for a year. I am so grateful for the time they have given my company, and the help with my marketing and website. They have been invaluable with putting forth ideas, and implementing the technical aspect of things I have no idea about.

They are both go out other way to explain all aspects of what is happening with my website.

George Martinez's Review Sourced from Google
I wasn’t going to say anything, but this place is so out of touch. For a juneteenth celebration the white lady who works there thought a picture of fried chicken with the words freedom would’ve been a good/acceptable ad campaign for a business I work closely with.Not to mention some of the things I’ve heard regarding how they treat their employees and they have no HR department.Well they do, but the HR lady is the bosses sister so…yeah…avoid this place at all costs.
Dalton Clark's Review Sourced from Google
I've worked with SBC heavily for the last 12 months. Always professional, never have to follow up or nag about project completion. Honestly, their autonomous and self-directed/motivated spirit spills over into our own company. If you're in the market for a full scale agency, Karee and team do not disappoint.
J Taylor's Review Sourced from Google
1. Requested information from contact form and NEVER HEARD BACK.2. Called and discussed project and was told someone would get back with me with a quote. NEVER HEARD BACK3. Called a second time for quote after 1 week had passed and was told someone would get back with me. NEVER HEARD BACK4. Called a third time and by now you should know what happened. NEVER HEARD BACKWhat I truly feel what happened was, my project was not big enough for Studio Brand Collective. During my call with them when I explained my project details, they asked what was my budget? If you don't tell them you're budget is below $10,000, your info most likely gets thrown in the trash and you NEVER HERE BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!
