We are an Information & Technology company, focused on delivering high performance cloud infrastructurre leveraging deep domain-aligned competencies across a range of verticals, across India, United States, Europe and Middle East.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

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

We hired them for PPC Campaigns.

SOLUTION

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

We came across to their name through search engine and through a friend.

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

They were to make PPC campaigns on Google, FB, LinkedIn across India, middle east and the US. They were simply given a pilot run across India for 2 months.

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

Only one. I presume he was a junior PPC professional. Not sure he was an employee. Most likely he was a freelancer.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Patheic. Despite multiple emails, phone calles and reminders, their team/ management never responded to a single email, let alone the target. Their team didn't go through the page before the campaign was made live? It took them 75 days to be precise to be aware of what our services are! None of the PageTraffic members even see our landing page for a whole of 2.5 months.

We shared with them keywords, negative key words,budget and all the data required to run a successful PPC campaign. They were simply lacking focus or attention to detail. Have never seen a service provieder company, who is not willing to share their employees phone number or email address.

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

You can simply communicate on a free version of Basecamp. No email or phone is shared of their team members. Timeliness is hopeless. I would NEVER recommend anyone to assoiate with Pagetraffic even if they are doing your work free of cost. It will still hurt you.

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

Unique? Ziltch

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

They must hire full time employees who can do work. Their model is based on freelancers and complete lack of transperency.

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the founder and CEO of a consulting company. We have multiple entities, including salesforce, mobile app development, and legal consulting services.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with PageTraffic?

We engaged PageTraffic to help one of our clients with digital and social media marketing, SEO, and PPC efforts.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

PageTraffic has managed digital marketing efforts for one of our e-commerce clients. After sharing our requirements, the PageTraffic team shared advice regarding keyword research and made suggestions for the advertising budget. They also created a detailed outline of the anticipated ROI of every possible campaign and keyword set. The team ultimately provided us with two possible advertising plans: Plan A and Plan B.

Now that we’ve chosen a plan, the PageTraffic team has optimized our client’s social media accounts and executed PPC campaigns on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and Google. They’ve also designed creative assets, including images and banners for seasonal offerings. The team has installed analytics to track success, which we’ve used to determine our future advertising budget.

I’ve mainly interacted with our project manager.

We had heard of PageTraffic before; they have a great reputation for being a local industry leader for Google SEO.

I’ve been satisfied with the results that PageTraffic has delivered. Before engaging them, we focused primarily on print media and local radio. Now that they’ve modernized our marketing strategies and shifted our focus to social media, our client’s sales have increased by 200–400%. 

PageTraffic has made it very easy for us to track which channels have seen the most success. We’ve used analytics to determine where most of our sales come from and inform our decisions about where to spend the marketing budget. 

How did PageTraffic perform from a project management standpoint?

PageTraffic has been the perfect partner in terms of project management. They’ve maintained communication with us through each stage, using Jira to manage tasks. Additionally, the team has submitted biweekly reports, which we’ve discussed in detail. 

We’ve been satisfied with the PageTraffic team’s professionalism and high level of expertise; they’ve been very flexible partners. Rather than provide us with cookie-cutter campaigns that could apply to anyone, they’ve catered their efforts to fit our goals.

What did you find most impressive about them?

The PageTraffic team has held themselves to a high standard. We’ve been impressed by their ability to exceed expectations and consistently deliver excellent results. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

I have nothing PageTraffic could improve on; I’ve been delighted with the partnership.

We have used their services in the past also amd found them to be thorough professional.

Describe the project in detail.

Our team had set up a series of meetings with the Page Traffic team in order to explain our requirements and deliverables from their end with a time line to be fixed for the project. The team had started showing results within the few weeks of taking the assignement.

What was the team composition?

The project was headed by the team lead, who was the single point of contact, coordinating with our team. However rest of the team members were also available on our regular online calls. In between we had interaction with the CEO of the company as well.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We are ranking fairly good in the search engine, specially for certain keywords which our client from UK wanted us to highlight. Though the dynamics for search engine keep changing, we are still doing good with the continuous efforts.

No we are quite satisfied with their work and work ethics.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m a co-owner of a design agency.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with PageTraffic?

We wanted to find an SEO team that would boost our ranking and bring in more work.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

They were supposed to improve the structure of our website, add keywords and key-rich HTML files, edit h1 and h2 tags, modify JavaScript, remove CSS files, and integrate Google Analytics into our platform. They also planned to update the site map in the footer of our website and optimize our content by creating new copy.

What is the team dynamic?

When we first hired their team, we had a representative based in the US. However, once our project began, we had a hard time reaching the overseas development team that was supposed to be working on our project. Suddenly, we weren’t able to reach our local representative either.

How did you come to work with PageTraffic?

We found PageTraffic on Clutch—they had a lot of positive reviews and fell within our budget. We’ve used Clutch before and have always been really pleased with the results, so we trusted that they would be a good partner.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent $350 for a month of service, and were supposed to pay $300 for the following months.

What is the status of this engagement?

The project began at the beginning of October 2019, but have tried to terminate our contract.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

How did your relationship with the vendor evolve?

Within the first few days of our partnership, we stopped getting any updates from their team. We sent them a few emails raising our concern about the lack of communication and asking them to elaborate on what they’re working on. We never received a reply, so we began searching our site to see what had been implemented.

We referenced our project management tool, Basecamp, to see the project’s progress. It was clear that they hadn’t completed the majority of the task-list and most things were listed as days, or even weeks, overdue.

How did PageTraffic address the challenges that arose?

When I called to terminate our contract and request a refund, they asked if they could complete the work in the last few days of the month. I said no because they were supposed to provide an entire month of service.

In addition to refusing to refund us, I’ve received another invoice because they never canceled our contract. I sent them several emails, and they never replied. So, I had to dispute the payments on PayPal. Since then, I’ve received a few emails from them claiming that they can’t refund me because of the disputes to the payments. However, they also have tried to justify the lack of service with PayPal.

In what specific areas can they improve?

They need to learn that the customer is important. They could have addressed the situation differently by reporting that they were having issues. They need to improve their communication.

What advice do you have for clients with similar needs to yours?

Although they offer a great price, it’s worth it to spend a little more to get what you need. We’ve learned that you get what you pay for. We’ve recently found another partner on Clutch and are looking forward to that partnership.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the owner and founder of a digital marketing company. My company has over 50 employees and we serve clients from all parts of the globe.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire PageTraffic?

We were looking to build a global identity for our company. We are well-known in Africa, but wanted to reach our global clients. That’s we turned to PageTraffic for both the strategic side of our marketing campaigns and also the creative and content development.

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted to rank on the first pages of search engine results in both local and international searches. Our intention was to come up with a campaign that had an extensive reach, one that was customized to cater to our target audience but also resonate with our company’s culture.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I talked to a friend who recommended PageTraffic.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

Once the deal was on, the company started by analyzing our website and recommending a few changes—like redesigning the site from an outdated Flash-based to HTML-based model and updating all the content. They took care of social media, guest posting, link building, PPC management, and SEO services.

What was the team composition?

Our digital marketing department worked closely with the company and they were open to collaborating with our team of creatives.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Since we started working with PageTraffic, our site’s search result rankings have improved. In fact, we list on the first page of search engines for many of our targeted keywords. This has improved our brand reputation and also increased sales.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We have nothing but great things to say about PageTraffic’s customer relations and support. Our company communicated smoothly with PageTraffic. We connected over the phone at least once a week and used email for all other communication. In case we had a question or inquiry, the company was quick to respond, and that’s one thing we really loved about them.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The fact that they are good at what they do and have evidence to back it up is what attracted me to PageTraffic in the first place. But what made me stay is how they go about their process, as well as their customer relations and support. Besides, they are affordable, which isn’t bad for business.

Are there any areas for improvement?

No, not really.

We had Manoj (PPC Executive, PageTraffic) and the PPC expert team involved in the project.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any statistics or metrics that speak to the quality of their work and impact of the engagement?

We were surprised by the 25% ROI we received on the PPC campaign in just one month. We are gaining at least three new leads per day, which is very good for our business.

How did the PageTraffic perform from a project management standpoint?

At first, we relied on Skype to communicate what we wanted from them. They later brought us on board their Jira platform, where we could see them executing every inch of the project on a daily basis. They reached our expectations in terms of communication and project management in a transparent manner.

What impresses you about the PageTraffic?

They’re willing to work with us on a daily basis and not just connect on a weekly or monthly basis. They did their best to make our PPC campaign a success.

Are there any areas for improvement?

If they were a bit more affordable, we could engage them more often to handle our SEO projects.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I was working as a marketing manager for a software development company.

We hired them to help us create content like blog posts, social media visuals, and press releases for our website.

What were your goals for this project?

We needed them to provide us with high-quality original content that we could use on our website and social media platforms. The content needed to be engaging and appealing to our customers. Our main goal is to convert our prospects into clients.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We were searching for companies that create content. We approached them through one of our contacts. After speaking with them, we liked their approach, and we knew that we would collaborate with them to further our business goals.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

We consulted with them several times to help them understand our goals and our requirements. They created blog posts regularly on our website, made two press releases per month, and created social media visuals in bulk for our use in audience engagement.

What was the team composition?

We worked closely with the account manager who understood our requirements. The account manager would convey our message to their writers and billing teams. The VP of operations listened to any issues we were facing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We are quite happy with their services. They understood our requirements well and are open to feedback. The content they created is original and is engaging, and they are ready to make modifications in the content if we aren’t happy with the outcome. Also, we saw a drastic increase in traffic on our website. They value their customers and it shows in every interaction.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The account manager was quite friendly and was open to any feedback we had. It was very easy to approach them. They were never too busy for us and always made time to speak with us.

Are there any areas for improvement?

No, I can’t think of anything.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the owner of OnlineSeats.com.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with PageTraffic?

We hired PageTraffic for help with SEO and site design.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

For the web design, their team sent me different versions, changes, and tweaks to make my site look better and become more responsive. For SEO, it was initially a lot of on-site work with crafting tags and changing titles. After that, the off-site optimization began with creating feature blog posts, building links, and assisting with social media. With their guidance, I was able to expand on their SEO services by using the tricks and tools they showed me.

What is the team composition?

I talked a lot with the owner. There were around four people I worked with on a daily basis.

How did you come to work with PageTraffic?

I own several restaurants and businesses, so I’ve tried other agencies over the years. With PageTraffic, I found the owner to be helpful, especially in the early stages. It felt more personalized. They didn’t deliver empty promises but were honest about what the website needed.

How much have you invested with them?

In total, we spent close to $150,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

Our engagement with PageTraffic took place between 2010–2015.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The engagement with PageTraffic was a success. Our ranking improved in Google, Bing, and Yahoo searches. My industry is tough, having thousands of keywords. Over time, we were able to grow within search results, which was my goal.

How did PageTraffic perform from a project management standpoint?

A lot of communication was done through email, but their team did have an internal project management tool that allowed me to engage directly with them. I think every business owner spends money to get results faster, but it was as expected and promised. I’m pleased with the results.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Out of all the outsourced companies I’ve dealt with, I’ve been pleased with PageTraffic on all levels. Their communication was always excellent. I was surprised when I would ask a question, even after hours, I would receive a response. It would be a quick answer, saying that someone would follow up the next morning or after the weekend. The amount of time their team was available was surprising with the time difference.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Considering the bad experiences that I’ve had in the past, I had few complaints. My work with PageTraffic was better than any other experience I’ve had with another provider. Results could’ve been faster, but I got what I paid for and was happy with the outcome because of the number of keywords we were attacking.
