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.

Jesse Morales's Review Sourced from Google
AMW Group has delivered the best results of any agency we have ever dealt with. We primarily do Press Release with them, and I’m so happy we found them!
Farris Fairbrother's Review Sourced from Google
The quality of the work is outstanding, but it is their professionalism and customer service sets them above the rest. The team at AMW Group puts the needs of the customer first by not only hitting required time lines with high quality work, but they listen to the customer and go out of the way to meet those needs.

John Scott Lynch's Review Sourced from Google
This company is a complete fraud and scam. Stole money from me and my mother. Kept telling me me to add money to my working account so I could withdraw what I earned. It never happens. You just keep adding money the keep upping the cost of actually getting your pay. STAY AWAY!!!PLEASE!!! COMPLETE SCAM. They use fake pics of who you are talking with. A COMPLETE MODERN DAY HUSTLE!!!
Brandon Lohaus's Review Sourced from Google
they are a scam i was "employed " by them to help boost ratings and instead of paying me they have it set up to make you think if you send money in you will make more money and be able to withdraw all the money but instead they just kept raising the cost without ever letting me withdraw
Taylor Osumi's Review Sourced from Google
A true 360 degree PR and marketing agency that delivers results, plain and simple. Not only is there extreme care for the agency clients, but it’s abundantly clear how much Konnect values its staff and employees as well.

Power Digital Reviews & Testimonials
Bianca Beale's Review Sourced from Google
Sean and Keanu have been amazing to work with. We've been working with Power for several years, now and they have been the only marketing team that truly makes me feel like they care. They pivot quickly when things aren't working out, and the SEO work they've done and suggestions on the website have brought so much success to my small business. Each time we have a call, we brainstorm new ideas to bring in more business, and the work that they do is thorough and done in a timely fashion. I'd recommend them 100%.
Nicole Cooley's Review Sourced from Google
We have been working with Sean & Keanu for the last 3 years and they helped us grow our local small business with incredible results. Their dedication, commitment and personal touch makes them feel like part of our team. They are constantly looking for ways to help us think bigger and creatively. I highly recommend Power Digital, the investment is well worth the results!
Mary Felt's Review Sourced from Google
Power Digital brings a very strong level of marketing expertise in every channel that they manage. With their support, I've been able to exceed my SEO goals and leverage their expertise. Their strategies and direction have helped me unlock new opportunities and achieve major headwinds with top keywords that I never would have otherwise!

They delivery excellent results on the backs of hardworking vendors... which in turn, they do not pay. From a business ethics standpoint, it's worth looking into another agency who cares about their subs.
