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)

Web Design Review from Nick Scarpino
Americaneagle.com has a seamless process from project ideation through completion. I found a lot of value in the system they have for mocking up the site during the design phase. Seeing the site on a mobile device and a desktop computer at that stage in the process was critical.

Ecommerce & Digital Marketing Director at The Harmonist

PPC Review from Viet Nguyen
We've had a very positive experience working with HK Digital as our paid media partner. As an ecommerce business focused on sustainable growth and performance accountability, we value partners who combine strategic thinking with reliable execution and HK Digital has delivered on both.
From the start, the team demonstrated strong organisation, clear communication, and a collaborative mindset. They took the time to understand our business goals, customer acquisition challenges, and revenue targets, then translated those into structured paid media strategies across our core channels.
One of the biggest strengths of HK Digital is their ability to balance performance optimisation with long-term growth thinking. Reporting is clear, actionable, and focused on outcomes that matter to the business not just channel metrics. The team is proactive in identifying opportunities, testing new ideas, and refining campaigns based on data.
Since working together, paid media has remained a major contributor to our ecommerce revenue, with campaigns consistently driving qualified traffic, supporting customer acquisition, and helping us scale efficiently. Their responsiveness and willingness to adapt quickly to business needs have made them feel like an extension of our internal team rather than an external agency.
Compared to other agencies we've worked with, HK Digital stands out for professionalism, reliability, and a genuinely collaborative approach. They are solutions-oriented, dependable, and focused on delivering measurable impact.
I would confidently recommend Travis and HK Digital to any ecommerce brand looking for a performance marketing partner that understands both the commercial realities of running a business and the technical execution required to grow it.

Media Buying Review from Ben Cheema
HK Digital is a reliable and results-driven partner. The team is strategic, responsive, and easy to work with, consistently delivering strong performance and clear communication. Highly recommend them for anyone looking for a knowledgeable and accountable digital marketing agency.

Performance Marketing Review from Carol Shih
We've partnered with HK Digital as a performance marketing partner and have referred business back and forth with full confidence. Travis Herndon is extremely knowledgeable, direct, and efficient the kind of partner who doesn't waste time, overpromise, or hide behind buzzwords.
His customer service and response time are excellent, communication is clear and matter-of-fact, and most importantly, the results speak for themselves. Travis approaches performance with discipline and accountability, which is exactly what serious brands need.
If you're looking for a straightforward, high-integrity performance partner who delivers without the noise, HK Digital is a strong choice.

I am an employee with Ace Handyman Services and we worked with Niles on the FiG team for social media management services and I came here to say our experience was nothing short of exceptional. From our weekly calls, to the generated social content, to the support in digesting the metrics, Niles and the FiG team were knowledgeable and wonderful to work with.

Zachary and his team at FIG are top notch. I hired them to run an advertising campaign for an event our agency was doing in the Denver market, and from first reaching out to them to after our event was wrapped they were exceptional. They were extremely professional, took the time to sit down and gage our needs for our agency, and created incredible ads that brought our agency and event incredible success far exceeding my expectations. They communicate very well and it's clear they genuinely care about their clients. I would highly recommend FIG for any marketing/advertising needs you have!

I have worked with Zachary and the team for years now. After going through a number of different marketing companies that did not do what they promised I began working with FIG. They communicate very well and do what they say they are going to do which is rare to find in the marketing space. They have been a great asset to my business.
