Our experience with The Ad Firm was not only disappointing, it was damaging. Despite having a signed agreement with clear terms, they failed to uphold their end of the contract. We were overcharged beyond the agreed scope, with surprise fees added without consent or transparency. After parting ways, we had our website independently audited and discovered they had been using fake backlinks, a black-hat SEO tactic that severely harmed our search engine rankings and online credibility. This kind of deceptive practice is completely unacceptable from any agency claiming to be a professional marketing partner. We are extremely relieved to no longer be working with them. I would strongly caution any business considering their services to proceed with extreme care, if at all. What appears to be a strategic partnership may end up costing far more than money and reputational damage. read more

I am writing to say how happy I am with the Ad Firm and your team. When I first started looking to have a new site built I had to take somewhat of a chance with whichever web developer I chose, and I am so glad I chose The Ad Firm. The process was seamless, transparent, and the staff is amazing. Each person that I have dealt with from Project managers to the web developers has been nothing short of wonderful. The website looks absolutely beautiful and no work I have asked for has been too difficult to accomplish. In fact, the response back after each of my requests is one that instilled confidence, and the work was done promptly. I can't say enough good things about The Ad Firm and I am just so happy with the site. I will most certainly be brining my further SEO work to The Ad Firm and also recommending The Ad Firm to anyone looking for a site to be built. read more

Kevin, Meghan and The Ad Firm team have helped us triple our business in the last five years. We are a small private fire sprinklers firm in SF and not many others in our industry were leveraging internet marketing at the time. So when we teamed up with The Ad Firm we were incredibly pleased with the rapid results of both paid Google advertising and the organic marketing that had our phone ringing right away. Since then, as a business owner I've become an avid student of marketing with Kevin and Meghan only a phone call away always answering my questions to help maximize the return on my marketing investment. It's truly a pleasure to work with such a competent, talented, yet down-to-earth team who goes an extra mile for their clients. Thank you, guys, you're the best! read more

Kevin and his team recently presented to a group of over 75 of his peers, of which I was in their number, and generously shared some incredibly useful information to help better the industry in general.

This openness conveys to me that The Ad Firm is a true authority in the SEO and internet marketing space. Not only that, I have seen specific examples of how this company's tight internal procedures, policies, and philosophies can do nothing else but bring tremendous results to their partners. Strongly recommended for SEO Services in Carlsbad, CA. read more

Let me start off by saying they are not the cheapest company around but you get what you pay for. We initially were referred to them by a business that we work with after they had great results on their online marketing. We decided to give them a shot on our SEO to see if they could get us increased phone calls and more page one rankings. After one year we have gone from 30 phone calls a month to just over 200 phone calls per month. Next month we plan on redesigning our website and we look forward to seeing the finished product as we can't wait to launch our new website with them read more

We needed a San Diego SEO company that knew how to increase our rankings in Google's pages. We began to get more traffic to our website and calls within a couple of months and our sales grew as a result of The Ad Firm's work. Far from being a singular push, these results remain a year later. They were highly accessible and invested time in explaining industry concepts. This tendency, as well as their regular reports, fostered transparency and complete communication. Beast read more

I was first introduced to The Ad Firm at an SEO conference where I heard the owner, Kevin Heimlich, speak. Not only did he know what he was talking about but I could tell the he also truly cares about his clients and wants them to succeed.

What I appreciated about Kevin was that he didn't sell me on a package that was too good to be true. There weren't any big promises of instant sales for little money.

We've been going for 6 months now and now everyone calling is saying they found me on Google. Good people doing good business read more
