NP Digital

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the director of SEO for Harmelin Media, one of the largest media services firms in the US solely focused on media buying and planning.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with NP Digital?

We do a lot of consulting and analysis, so we needed someone to supplement our SEO services.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

NP Digital is our primary service provider for end-to-end SEO services involving link building and content writing services. We collaborate on different strategies for URLs and anchor texts and provide them with information that can be utilized in the process. 

They essentially complement the work we’re already doing with our clients and fill major gaps in our services.

What is the team composition?

We mainly work with Justin (Senior Account Lead) and John (SVP).

How did you come to work with NP Digital?

One of their sales rep sent me an email recommending their services. We listened to what they had to say and it sounded like a really intriguing program that could save us a lot of time and provide good value to our clients, so we started engaging with them.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent somewhere between $10,000–$15,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

Our ongoing partnership started in August 2021.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Since partnering with NP Digital, we’ve experienced some growth in domain referrals and our implemented keywords. Before we started the engagement, we ranked 438 keywords with none of them reaching the top three but by March 2022, we ranked 602 keywords with 13 of them reaching the top three.

As far as link building goes, I didn’t know what to expect going in, but I knew I wasn’t happy with what we were getting from our previous provider. NP Digital definitely exceeded our expectations and I’m really happy with their ongoing work.

How did NP Digital perform from a project management standpoint?

We were able to clearly define what the budget would look like up front, so there won’t be any surprises in the development process. The team delivers their links within their timelines and if there are going to be delays, they communicate them with us in an appropriate amount of time.

We typically communicate through email and we would have monthly standing calls to keep everything up to date.

What did you find most impressive about them?

We’re highly impressed with the quality of their service and the links they build, as they provide great value for what I pay.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I’m perfectly happy with their current services so I don’t have any constructive feedback at the moment.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I would definitely recommend hiring them especially if you don’t have the bandwidth for SEO work. They bring a lot of value with their expertise so they’ll be able to guide you through the process seamlessly.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m a partner at Conexiam, a management consulting company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with NP Digital?

We needed a company that could handle our SEO initiatives.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We hired NP Digital to help us improve the search engine response for our website, which we use for marketing our consulting services and selling online training to be an enterprise architecture. Their responsibilities include creating content for our blog, conducting keyword research, and optimizing our keywords. 

They started the engagement by conducting a technical audit of our website. They then performed market analysis to figure out what specific keywords we should attempt to rank for. This involved looking at our competitors’ sites, figuring out which keywords they rank for, and then developing a year-long strategy for the same set of keywords.

NP Digital also did some optimizations on our website, such as fixing our duplicate headers. I didn't even know what duplicate headers were, and it turned out that we had hundreds of them. They had to go through all the pages on our site to fix all of them.

What is the team composition?

Our main point of contact is a project manager from NP Digital.

How did you come to work with NP Digital?

We had been using NP Digital’s free keyword tool called Ubersuggest for years, and it worked great for us, so we decided to hire them directly for this project.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent somewhere around $50,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in March 2021, and the engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

When we started, our website ranked for 67 keywords. Now, it ranks for 2,600 keywords. We’ve also seen a 2,500% increase in our click traffic; we now see over four million clicks per week. In terms of the quality of their work, NP Digital has been able to pick up our niche and deliver great content for our website.

How did NP Digital perform from a project management standpoint?

NP Digital has performed well in terms of project management. They’ve been able to stick to the established budget and deliver everything I wanted. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

I’m impressed with NP Digital’s expertise and professionalism. I also appreciate how they provide valuable insights about the keywords that we’re going for.

Are there any areas they could improve?

They were a little slow to get the content writing going, so we had a little bit of trouble at the beginning. They took on a complete set of guidelines for a ghostwriter, but we’re a specialized niche, so we weren’t surprised that the ghostwriter had some trouble understanding what we did and what we needed them to do. Fortunately, they managed to catch up five months into the engagement.

We also have an online spreadsheet document, which we use to track all of their work. The problem is that they’re not really good at keeping it up to date.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Be clear about your requirements, and don’t be afraid to remind your project manager about them. Another important thing is to make sure that you do your part to make your project a success.

What is the team composition?

We’ve been working with around six members of their team, but we mainly speak to Jacob (Account Manager).

How did you come to work with NP Digital?

I found them through a Google search, and I chose them based on their online work.

How much have you invested in them?

We’ve spent $50,000–$200,000 with them so far.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in August 2021, and the engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

We’ve noticed increased engagement on keywords, key terms, and Google rankings. Also, the content they write for us pops up on Google, driving a lot of traffic to our site. Overall, everything they’ve done for us is an outstanding job, including content backlinks — we’re very satisfied with them.

How did NP Digital perform from a project management standpoint?

They’re great at staying on budget — we’ve even encouraged them to spend a little more on our project! In terms of communication, we use phone calls and the Google suite.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their customer service is outstanding; they’re good at communication, they answer every inquiry, their team is polite, and they’re informative. Nothing ever goes over my head, and they deliver what they say they are.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I don’t think there’s anything they can improve on. I can only recommend that they add more features and services to their business.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Start with content, backlinks, and keywords. Also, have faith in the process because nothing is happening overnight — give it six months to a year, and you’ll see results.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

We’ve been happy with their SEO services, which is why we decided to hire them again for their search ads services. We have no plans on ending our partnership anytime soon.

How did NP Digital perform from a project management standpoint?

They have a great project management process. We receive monthly reports from them regarding our campaigns, and they check our keywords and content in order to see what we can tweak on the website. In addition, they’ve been professional the entire time that we’ve been working together. We communicate through email and video conferences on Google Meet. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

NP Digital’s customer service skills are great. We’re also impressed by their results-oriented approach.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CEO of a real estate brokerage firm.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with NP Digital?

We were looking to improve our Google rankings and SEO.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

I met with them, discussed my goals, and NP came up with a monthly plan to go after the low-hanging fruit, which were the website pages within striking distance above us on Google.

I have at least one monthly meeting with them, and they provide me with overhauled content and research on how to make each page that we have more likely to rank. Keyword research is also involved. They’ve also discovered a number of issues with the site that I was not aware of, including with my Google Analytics.

What is the team composition?

I work with a main point of contact and a couple of their technical experts.

How did you come to work with NP Digital?

I’ve been on their email list for many years and always enjoyed it.

How much have you invested with them?

I’ve spent around $8,000 so far.

What is the status of this engagement?

We’ve been working together since September 2021.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

They are top-notch — professional and organized. I haven’t seen quantitative results because of the issues they’ve found, but their transparency stands out. My previous firm was very shrouded. NP Digital teaches me about what they’re doing.

I haven’t been working with them that long, but I can see the writing on the wall that good results are going to come.

How did NP Digital perform from a project management standpoint?

They are phenomenal from a project management perspective. You get more than you pay for in terms of organization and responsiveness. With NP Digital, you actually know what they’re doing.

We collaborate over Google Sheets, email, and Zoom.  

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their attention to detail, professionalism, and communication stand out as highlights of the engagement.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, not that I’m aware of. I moved to NP Digital from a vendor that didn’t tell me anything about what they were doing. Now, I know everything that NP Digital is doing.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

If you have an existing website, be prepared to find issues that you didn’t know existed. It will take time to fix them and see results.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the marketing manager for Sterling Homes Edmonton, home builder in Edmonton, Alberta, catering to first time home buyers.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire NP Digital, and what were your goals?

We wanted to expand our reach. We hired them to provide full scale SEO services to improve our rankings and grow traffic to our existing and identify opportunities for new keyword rankings.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

Neil is an SEO guru. We trusted the brand he established and also trusted we would be following best practices in real-time. There are plenty of alternative solutions that exist, some at much lesser monthly spend, but, it ultimately came down to trust, as too many companies get scammed by SEOs.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and campaigns.

Our engagement began with a discovery phase and we laid out our goals. They helped us with keyword research and performed an analysis of our competitors. From there, they made on-site changes and created new collateral with our updated tactics and keywords.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

1 Account Manager

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

Since implementing the SEO efforts, our overall website traffic is steadily growing. Our website speed has also increased considerably.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

They were great at managing our expectations and meeting deadlines. We mostly used email to communicate, and they were quick to respond and implement changes.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

They ran a site audit on our website that exposed inefficiencies in how my SEO was setup. The pointers and tips they gave were invaluable, and in turn, it helped provide me with increased quality traffic and improve our website overall.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

I feel more industry-specific knowledge would have helped identify opportunities that a competitor keyword analysis wouldn't necessarily highlight.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

Operations manager and partner of an auto accident lead gen system. We run paid ads for our platform to generate accident leads for our clients.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire NP Digital, and what were your goals?

We already have great paid traffic to our site but our organic traffic was close to zero. We wanted NP Digital to give us organic presence to build up free traffic and gain brand awareness. We wanted to improve conversions for our clients.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

I had been following N Patel blogs and done some SEO courses through him but what we needed was a nationwide presence, something my skills lacked. N Patel had been known to me for some years so I already had the trust that his company knew what they were doing.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and campaigns.

We had many meetings with NP Digital to help them understand our business model and what we wanted to achieve. Once we were confident that they understood they formulated a plan to provide us with more organic traffic, brand awareness and the possibility for more conversions on site. Each week we were sent communication on those deliverables and next steps along with anything’s we had to do. We also had monthly zoom meets to ensure all was on track.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

Three I believe. We had the initial contact sales person who helped collate all information. Then we had onboarding and then we have our personal agent who meets with us monthly.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

Well we started out with 3 organic visits per month. A year later we are at 800 visits per month. We have hundreds of keywords we are ranking for. Our bounce rate declined. Our click through rate is 7%. We are converting 70 leads per month organically compared to 0 a year ago. The results are immense. Year two won’t be as dramatic because we were going from zero but we are focusing more on conversions in the next year.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

We have a dashboard that shows status of work at any time. Weekly emails with completion and in progress. Monthly meetings to go over numbers. It’s all there and very informative.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their attention to detail and communication has been amazing. We know what’s going on at any time.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

We’re very happy with everything.

How many teammates from NP Digital were assigned to this project?

1 Employee

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

They were hired to manage 2 of our clients google ads accounts for $600/month per account. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We agreed to a straightforward $600 per ad account managed by NP. For months, I was billed accordingly—until one day, three unexpected charges appeared, none matching the agreed $600 or even $1200 for both accounts. No invoices. No explanations. I immediately contacted support—radio silence. After months of chasing, I was promised reversals that never came. We terminated our partnership, but the fraudulent charges were never refunded, and the situation was grossly mishandled by management. To make matters worse, one of our accounts was flooded with bot traffic and fake leads, further exposing the incompetence and lack of accountability.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Our account manager was responsive, she was the only saving grace throughout our experience with this company. 

What was your primary form of communication with NP Digital?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Absolutely nothing.

Are there any areas for improvement or something NP Digital could have done differently?
