      Web Development Review from Madison Shaheen

      I worked with Forefront to redesign my nonprofits website and had an amazing experience. They were professional, creative, easy to work with.. I could go on and on. Our website looks amazing and is exactly what we were hoping for. I worked closely with Nick during the process and could not speak more highly of him.Since our redesign project completed, we now use Forefront for our website maintenance and that has also been just a flawless experience. Anytime I run into a problem Phill helps me in a timely manner and is so helpful.Can't recommend Forefront enough!

      Tom Reid's Review Sourced from Google

      I was connected with Rod at Splurge Media through a mutual social media friend. I had a litany of bad experiences with past webmasters and was feeling very cautious in establishing a new relationship. I am, additionally, a dinosaur with such things. I entered this new relationship extremely guarded due to the past experiences.Rod and his team were EXTREMELY patient, offering both much more in their time and talent than one client deserves. And unlike past webmasters, they produced a modern, high-quality page that actually worked! We have since worked together on two additional pages, the last of which involved a complete rebranding of my consulting services business, including logo and supporting graphic material.They contributed significantly to improving the overall marketing, are exceptionally responsive to minor edits or glitches that arise, and each month I receive a report that explains each back-up, outage, off-normal event, and other information that now allows me to test marketing and outreach approaches.They also went over and above expectations in the final layout, the addition of a video element, and several other things that have improved the site, its ranking, and has generated very positive customer feedback.I am still a dinosaur, and they are still exceptionally patient. And competent. And professional. I've recommended them often and will continue to do so. I expect Splurge Media to be the last web design and maintenance team I will ever engage. As a solopreneur, it feels SO GOOD to never have another worry about the websites.

      We had worked as a partner with Power-Marketing.com over 10 years and few months back Hortongroup.com bought this company over and asked us to stop work on all client campaign (12+ accounts) with a promise that they'll pay the outstanding balance of last month's work. It's been more than 4 months now and ever after tens of reminders sent they still haven't paid our outstanding balance of US$5500. Do not work with Hortongroup.com or their partner company Jlbworks.com or the owner Ned Horton.

      I had this company double-bill my credit card, and they would not resolve it - so got billed both times. I had made an agreement with Abid M, who left the company before dispute was settled. I called one day to talk to Abid, but I knew immediately it was NOT Abid. The mannerisms and voice tone were different. I asked to be transferred to Account Pay to resolve the dispute and receive my credit. When Natasha (whom I find out later is the COO) answered, and said, "Thank you Reynold". I told her that Reynold answered the phone and identified himself as Abid. I said why are you impersonating ex- employees?I had had multiple problems before this incident, and disputes with multiple credit cards because they were not doing the work they had agreed upon. My site was never completed to standard. The only honest employees that got ANYTHING done on website left the company. This place is as crooked as they come. Find another web company.

New Jersey SEO Company Hiring Guide

Why should I hire an SEO agency near me?

You should hire an SEO agency near you because it can amplify your organic visibility and produce content that effectively reaches and resonates with your local audiences. 

Some additional advantages you can tap into include: 

  • Insight into the locality 
    Operating within the same area as your local audience, an SEO agency near you understands their cultural nuances, search behavior, and preferences, enabling it to better tailor its strategies. 
  • Expansive local network  
    A local SEO agency has established relationships with local media outlets, businesses, and influential personas in the area, providing your business with more opportunities for partnerships, collaborations, and exposure. 
  • Early access to local trends and news 
    An SEO agency near you may have first-hand knowledge of upcoming trends, events, and happenings and can use it to help you stay ahead of competitors and retain relevancy among target audiences. 
  • Local market gap identification 
    By understanding the intricacies of the local market, a nearby SEO agency can identify unmet needs and opportunities, allowing you to position your business as a standout solution in the marketplace. 
  • Immediate access to resources 
    Proximity to your business enables fast response times, direct team access, quicker project turnaround time, and rapid adaptation to evolving business needs and market trends.  
  • Effortless collaboration 
    Working with a local SEO agency reduces miscommunications as you're in the same time zone, share the same culture, and speak the same language, making collaboration and project coordination much easier. 
  • Long-term partnership  
    The close proximity to the SEO agency will facilitate more personal face-to-face meetings, thus strengthening the bond between teams and fostering a deeper, long-lasting partnership. 

Success story 

To illustrate how a nearby SEO agency can benefit you, we have selected this case study from New Jersey SEO company Smart Sites

  • Challenge: Operating in the Tri-State area, air duct cleaning company Air Duct Brothers struggled to attract the right customers and grow its online presence due to misrepresentation and an outdated website. 
  • Solution: SmartSites transformed the client’s website from a single page to a fully functioning website with a navigational structure and rebranded it as “Air Duct Brothers.” It also produced dozens of SEO-rich and engaging content pages and blog posts to better target keywords and increase website exposure. Moreover, SmartSites deployed an intensive link-building campaign to attract traffic and establish the client’s local reputation. 
  • Results: The partnership with a local agency yielded some lucrative traction — Air Duct Brothers recorded a 375% lead increase and a 244% organic search traffic surge.

    Check the agency’s list of expertise, clients, and case studies to see if it has worked with businesses from your niche. A New Jersey SEO agency that knows your local market can better understand your audience’s behavior and anticipate your needs. 
  • Hyper-local market understanding 
    The agency should be familiar with New Jersey’s unique business landscape, cultural nuances, and demographics to create effective strategies. For instance, it should recognize that “Beemerville house for sale” is a highly competitive keyword considering the area’s popularity. 
  • Ties with local media and popular personas 
    Search for agencies with connections with New Jersey-based personalities, media, and news outlets, like Courier Post, The Star-Ledger, and The Press of Atlantic City. An extensive media network means they can obtain strong local backlinks and amplify your brand exposure. 
  • New Jersey-focused reporting 
    Ensure the agency provides clear and consistent reporting that goes beyond standard SEO metrics. It should deliver insights on how your website ranks for New Jersey-specific search terms (like “best bagels in New Jersey” or “New Jersey landscaping services”) and local keywords, emphasizing your performance against regional competitors in your industry. 
  • Technical SEO with a local focus  
    Shortlist New Jersey SEO companies that possess technical know-how to optimize for local elements, including geo-targeting, schema markup for New Jersey businesses, local proximity searches, map pack results, and neighborhood-specific queries (like “top coffee shop in Hoboken”).
