Ardent Creative is a Fort Worth-based digital marketing and web development agency built for small and mid-sized businesses that need real results without enterprise-level complexity or cost.

We specialize in four core services: website design and development, search engine optimization (SEO), paid advertising on Google and Facebook, and social media management. Our website engagements start at an accessible $5,000 price point designed to get businesses online with a professional, conversion-focused presence without the inflated timelines and budgets that come with larger firms.

What sets Ardent Creative apart is our approach. We don't hand accounts off to junior staff or run clients through templated processes. Every engagement is built around the specific goals of the business whether that's generating leads, growing local visibility, or building a scalable digital presence over time.

We've incorporated AI-augmented workflows across our service delivery, which means faster execution, sharper content, and more competitive positioning for clients in an era where the digital landscape is shifting fast. This isn't a side capability it's built into how we operate.

Ardent Creative was co-founded by David Canington and Brad Ball, both of whom remain actively involved in client strategy and delivery. We're based in Fort Worth, Texas, and primarily serve businesses in the DFW area and beyond.

I have worked with Ardent on a variety of different projects, and they ALWAYS go above and beyond to deliver a result that brings to life the vision we gave them. Cannot recommend them enough for all things web and design! "
Bethany Smith's Review Sourced from Google
We need a 6th star for these guys. I work kinda in the same space and have long had a great and wonderful partnership with David and Brad. Ardent is just the best.Recently, I needed a sounding board and a bit of coaching. Without hesitation, David hooked me up with James and Joshua to deep dive some ad strategy and they were nothing short of genius level coaches for me.I cant thank them enough for their friendship, support and help over the years. "
