RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Headquarters Digital Marketing's strategic approach to SEO resulted in a 40% increase in organic traffic year-over-year.

We also doubled our organic search income in 18 months with a revenue-to-spend ratio of 12.71x through keyword research, target consumer and competitor analysis, and impactful content and link-building initiatives.

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

I engaged this company based on their claimed expertise in SEO services. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Unfortunately, my experience was highly disappointing and fell far short of professional standards.

Communication and basic process issues began immediately. Despite multiple attempts to schedule the initial discovery call—which was never completed—the team consistently failed to respond. When I raised legitimate concerns about the absence of industry-specific and keyword research tailored to our business type, their responses felt dismissive and deflecting rather than constructive.

The situation escalated when I escalated the matter directly to the CEO. Instead of addressing the unfulfilled discovery call or my request for proper research and strategy alignment, the CEO argued with me and stated that, regardless of the quality or relevance of the work delivered, I was already committed to payment under the agreement.

The content and optimizations provided were equally concerning. Blogs appeared largely automated or generic, with little to no relevance to our industry or target audience. On-page SEO execution was substandard: keyword usage felt unnatural and improvised rather than data-driven, H1 headers were inconsistently structured and poorly optimized, and there was no evidence of meaningful user experience (UX) improvements or strategic customizations.

Ultimately, the 1500-word blog posts delivered minimal—if any—value in terms of relevant traffic, engagement, or genuine SEO progress. I cannot recommend this provider to others seeking legitimate, research-based, and results-oriented SEO services.

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

We hired HQDM to improve our general SEO with a strong focus on local SEO, since we operate a brick-and-mortar massage and float clinic. Key deliverables have included optimizing our Google Business Profile, increasing our local search visibility, improving keyword rankings, and providing in-depth performance tracking. They’ve also helped us understand our data through detailed reporting and personalized video breakdowns. Their strategy was built around realistic expectations, and the results have far exceeded them.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The most measurable outcome has been a record-breaking increase in revenue. April, which has historically been our slowest month over the last two years, became the best non-holiday month we’ve ever had—beating even our typical Valentine’s surge. We also saw our busiest two-week payroll period in company history, with no special promotions driving it. These results clearly reflect the effectiveness of HQDM’s SEO efforts in increasing visibility and driving more in-person traffic to our clinic.

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

HQDM’s project management has been excellent. They consistently deliver on time and communicate clearly throughout each phase of the project. What really stands out is their responsiveness—they're quick to answer questions, always thorough, and even went above and beyond by creating a custom video walkthrough to explain performance data. Their approach is both professional and personable, making it easy to stay informed and confident in the direction we’re headed.

What was your primary form of communication with Headquarters Digital Marketing?

Email or Messaging App

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

What impressed me most about Headquarters Digital Marketing is their integrity and transparency. They don’t overpromise—instead, they give realistic projections and then exceed them. Their ability to explain complex SEO data in a way that’s easy to understand, along with their willingness to tailor communication to our needs (including personalized videos), sets them apart. It’s rare to find a marketing partner that combines technical expertise with such a high level of customer care.

Their honest, data-driven approach, clear communication, and consistent results have made a real impact on our business.

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

At this point, there’s nothing that stands out as needing improvement. HQDM has been consistently responsive, transparent, and effective. They’ve delivered on everything we’ve asked and have adjusted to our needs seamlessly. It’s been a smooth and productive experience so far.
