This company really f'd me, twice--hard…read more Gravitate designed my original website, or really my first professional website, at a cost of $12,000 back in 2014. They did a great job, however, they did not make the site responsive. Just a few years after this, we were being pressured to upgrade the site to a responsive site by Google--or risk our SEO rankings. I asked them for a responsive site upgrade, but instead was talked into a site that was based on our explainer video--which is simply a cartoon. They took the cartoonish imagery and designed the site around that. They changed our company colors from red and black to orange and red. They changed our logo to orange from red, and then promptly lost the original logo--I still don't have the original logo. They quoted me $19,000 for this upgrade. Once the site was done and paid for, we launched it live. Our SEO was TRASHED. Leads were about 20% of normal. We went back to the old site after a week. My business was dying. Leads returned to old levels immediately. I'm not sure what went wrong with that site, but I believe it had something to do with the design. My customers are all baby-booming Trump supporters who probably didn't like the cartoonish nature of my new site and were turned away. Either that, or the site wasn't set up properly to keep my SEO in place. Gravitate would not help. They would not provide a refund. So, I lost the 19 grand. Poof, gone. No apology, nothing. I ended up finding a different company to complete the upgrade, and they did a great job. Unfortunately, this new company required a $3000/mo retainer AFTER completion, and did not inform me of this prior to the site build. So, I ended up leaving this company and was left WITHOUT a web designer. Eventually the site needed help with a plug in. I had nowhere to turn. I went to them, hat in hand, and asked them to help, but I was turned away. I reminded them about a referral I had given them that resulted in literally HUNDREDS of thousands of dollars in revenue. They went ahead and helped me out with this issue, and a few other small issues over time. They built a pricing page for me for $1200 as well. Well time passed and eventually they stopped responding to my emails and phone calls. Literally ignoring them. They won't reply to me anymore. I had two major issues I needed help with. The first, any tiny change to my website would result in problems--HTML showing up on the page and other structural problems. Also, the form company plugin they had installed no longer worked when updated, which was a serious security flaw. I was told (when they were still replying to me) that the plug-in issue could not be solved, that an entirely new form would have to be set up. They did not offer a solution for either problem, basically saying it would be too expensive to fix. Well, I recently happened to find a new web designer through my Zoho consultant. He fixed both problems in less than 30 minutes, and didn't even charge me. Also, if you are considering a project with this company, check out their reviews on Glassdoor. The way a company treats its employees should tell you all you need to know about them.

My company enjoyed top ranking on Google with a CA firm for many years, but as Google changed and…read moreevolved my rankings declined. I needed to find a firm that was going to be constantly changing and evolving along with Google. I was pretty desperate for a solution when I found Webfor. They gave me no promises for instant success and said it would take time (I appreciated the honesty). The proposal they gave me was only slightly higher than what I was paying at the other firm so I was happy with the price. It has been almost a year and I have number 1 ranking under my key term and other terms have also seen great improvement. I also have them manage my ad words account and they have done a great job making some cost saving changes to it. I also have them doing a redesign of my website which will launch this week. A got one other bid but only as an exercise because at this point I would not trust my web presence with anyone else. I meet with my rep in person once a month to review our progress. I know some will see this as an advantage. I don't know if it matters, but I like keeping my money local. I am currently experiencing a problem with my Google places listing. This is normally something that would have caused me great stress, but now I don't have to even worry about because I know they are on top of it.

There are too many web designers, and agencies that boast designing services priced too high for a local business' budget. Because of this, small businesses choose to settle for less in areas they cannot afford, including their web presence. Over the last few years, we have been able to uncover a number of valuable resources that aid in the website industry. Upon these discoveries, we have brought to light how simple this process can be for small businesses. With our modern practices, we can provide you with professional results for a fraction of the budget you would find with competing agencies.
