We've researched and ranked the leading public relations firms in California that establish positive relationships, foster engaging interactions and align your brand as a leader in the industry. Narrow down your search for the best partner using our intuitive agency listing table below. Filter by team, size, reviews, budget and more.

Organic rankings are determined by five factors: top services, reviews, portfolio, awards/press, and team expertise. Sponsored listings pay for a placement that appears above organic positions. Sponsorship does not affect star ratings or review content - read more on our methodology page.

      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.
