Epidemic Marketing Reviews & Testimonials

SEO Review from Kealy McCormack
Epidemic Marketing knows a ton about SEO and helped get our website seen online! They were great at responding to our questions and continuing to hone in SEO on our website for years. Overall, the cost and wanting to move in house in order to have more control over the website is why we left but if anyone needs SEO help in Denver they are a great option!

SEO Review from Tim Cardona
Noah and his team have been so amazing for my automotive detailing business. I didn’t understand SEO at all but I knew I needed it to grow my business. When I first talked to Noah he wasn’t pushy on selling me anything. Just simply broke everything down for me to understand and made it work for me. He has helped my business stay competitive and on target with SEO and my website! I can’t thank Epidemic Marketing enough it has been over 2 years now I have been with them and I’m glad!!

CRO Review from Brian Hong
Noah is a wealth of information and someone I have the pleasure of working with. He provides extremely actionable insights with conversion rate optimization, as well as advanced SEO techniques that move the needle.We have worked on several CRO campaigns that helped turn more visitors into customers which made our dollar work harder for us and Paid Media campaigns. He’s a true pro and even better human.

Shopify Plus eCommerce Review from Jessica Grant
Bighorn has been an exceptional partner to our organization here at Sports Basement. They supported us through multiple legal and regulatory accessibility matters with a steady, knowledgeable approach, translating complex requirements into clear, actionable guidance. Throughout these engagements, their team demonstrated a strong understanding of both the legal landscape and the practical realities of building and maintaining accessible digital experiences, which gave us confidence at every step.What truly distinguishes them is that their work goes well beyond compliance. In addition to helping us identify and prioritize accessibility issues, they invested time in educating our teams on how to design and develop accessibility into our site from the start. Their recommendations are thoughtful, pragmatic, and focused on real user impact, enabling us to move from a reactive posture to a more proactive, sustainable accessibility practice.Most importantly, they operate as true partners rather than transactional consultants. Their work is clearly driven by a genuine commitment to making the web usable by all, not simply meeting minimum standards or checking a box. We would strongly recommend them to any organization looking for a strategic accessibility partner who combines expertise, integrity, and a long-term perspective.

Software Development Review from Tiffany Asamoah
As a lead generation agency, we required custom software development to streamline our operations and enhance our capabilities. Bighorn Web Solutions far exceeded our highest expectations. Their team's hands-on, white-glove approach was evident from the start, and their level of competency truly set them apart. Working with a global team, they delivered tailored solutions that perfectly aligned with our business needs. Their responsiveness and attention to detail made the entire process smooth and efficient. Thanks to their expertise, weve gained not only a top-tier software solution but also a valuable long-term partner. We couldn't be more satisfied with the outcome and highly recommend Bighorn Web Solutions for their superior service and dedication.

Code18 Interactive Reviews & Testimonials

WordPress Website Design Review from Kennedy Moore
Steve and Code18 Interactive did a terrific job relaunching Ask a New Yorker. He helped me rethink and design the site, brought a 25-year archive into a clean, modern format, and also helped build out the e-commerce side so the whole thing feels cohesive and looks great. He was responsive, patient, thoughtful, and very good at solving problems along the way. Im extremely happy with how the relaunch came together and grateful for the care he put into it.

WordPress Website Design Review from Hannah Woods
We had a great experience working with Code18. Steve and his team was polished, communicative, and proactive bringing not just technical skill, but real strategic insight to the table. They challenged us (in a good way) to think differently about our website, how we structure our products, and how we present our brand online.We came to them with a fairly complex product catalog, and they delivered a custom backend solution that madegthe customer-facing experience clean, clear, and easy to navigate. They offered smart, scalable solutions that prioritized both usability and long-term flexibility.Wed highly recommend them to any team looking for a strategic, collaborative, and technically sharp web development partner.

Web Design Review from Lance Cleland
Code 18 was a pleasure to work with. They offered clear communication, transparent billing, and adherence to deadlines. They worked within our budget to meet our vision for the project, updating and enhancing the functionality of our website to better the customer experience and make things easier for us on the backend.

Handbook Reviews & Testimonials

Web Development Review from Liz Ryan
Handbook handles our website development and web-based front end product development. From the initial concept to the final launch, the team always demonstrates a deep understanding of our needs, and delivers on the requirements quickly and completely.If you're looking for a skilled, reliable, and innovative website developer, I highly recommend Handbook. They have been a fantastic partner, and we look forward to working with them again in the future!

Web Development Review from Victoria Lee
I can count on one hand the number of companies Ive worked with in my career that possess the same level of dedication, responsiveness, attention to detail, and trustworthiness as that of an internal team and thats because theres only one: Handbook.First and foremost, Id like to say that if you're considering working with Handbook for your design and/or website development needs, you absolutely will not regret it. The Handbook team goes beyond simply executing our requests, which has not only been refreshing but has also been key to our growth as an online SaaS business.Handbook genuinely cares about our user experience, website performance, and broader business goals. Instead of just implementing what we ask for, they actively evaluate our needs and offer thoughtful recommendations to improve our outcomes.In addition to the quality of work and forward-thinking perspective, we know that we can count on Handbook to be there when we need them. From countless late-night sale asset takedowns to weekend staging QAs so we can feel confident about Monday morning launches, I have never experienced this level of communication and dedication from a company.I would recommend Handbook time and time again to absolutely anyone in need of web development, design, or messaging support. These guys are a rare find and your only regret will be that you didn't start working with them sooner.

Web Design Review from ✌🏻Jason Steele
Pat and team are great web designers and developers who have really helped us out in multiple areas of web design and development. Trustworthy, easy to communicate with, and I feel like they go the extra mile. Will definitely work with the team again.

Web Development Review from Sofia Juan
We recently had the pleasure of working with Small Projects Bureau Development on our new website for Show Kids, a company offering performing arts classes and after school programs for children in NYC. From start to finish, the experience was amazing.The team at Small Projects Bureau Development truly understood our vision and was able to bring it to life in a way that exceeded our expectations. Their creativity, attention to detail, and technical expertise resulted in a beautifully designed, user-friendly website that perfectly reflects the essence of Show Kids. The website is not only visually appealing but also functional and easy to navigate, which is crucial for our audience of parents.Throughout the process, they were communicative, responsive, and highly professional. They took the time to understand our specific needs and ensured that every element, from the layout to the content, was aligned with our goals. The final product showcases their commitment to quality and their deep understanding of web development.We couldnt be happier with the outcome, and were excited to share our new online presence with our community in NYC. So much so that we are now working with Small Projects Bureau Development again to create a new website for our upcoming location in Barcelona, Spain. If you're looking for a team that combines creativity with technical skill, we highly recommend Small Projects Bureau Development!Thank you for helping us bring Show Kids to life online, both in NYC and soon in Barcelona!
