Shopify Development for Life Saving eCommerce
We frequently collaborate with other agencies. This eCommerce project was a collaboration with High BandWidth of Dallas, TX. They have a great design team but they don't develop for Shopify, so we worked together to build this Amazing Shopify experience.
Seota handled all of the HTML, CSS, Liquid, and Shopify Development.

WordPress Development for Senior Living
We collaborated with Pocket Hercules, a Minneapolis advertising agency, on this fantastic web development project. We love working with Pocket Hercules on projects because they bring spectacular copy, photos, and videography to every client they engage with. This project is no different.
Seota was responsible for all of the HTML5, CSS, Custom Database needs as well as coding the 100% custom design to WordPress. PH did all the creative, web design, new photography, and videography.

eCommerce Design and Development
This fantastic, custom WooCommerce website was designed by an Ad Agency and developed by Seota. We took Photoshop files from the Agency and built his website that converts better than most Big Ticket eCommerce on the market.

Multi Location Website Design
This great looking WordPress website incorporates video and custom eCommerce functionality tied to WooCommerce.
The Gift Card page took serious WordPress development expertise. All 13 locations may have different prices per service and service frequency. We accomplished this without building duplicate products per location in WooCommerce. Great functional admin tools, custom-built just for this purpose.

Shopify Design & Development
Totally out of the box design in Shopify. GoTime Energy Drink is not your typical energy drink and this is not your typical website.

Quick Custom WordPress Design
This beautiful little website was designed in Photoshop and "sliced" for WordPress in 7 days. Content and edits took a few weeks, but the site was live in under 30 days.
A great example of a Seota budget website built for a small business.

Augmented Reality Service Provider in Custom WordPress
CareAR.com is an augmented reality software company that specializes in field service. CareAR hired a creative director during our design and development process and she put her unique thumbprint on the design and made what we thought was a great web design, even better.
The site uses video in banners and in content to show the power of the software and service applications. Great use of colors and fonts make this site stand out from all of the competitors.
The site was developed in WordPress & designed in Adobe Photoshop and Adobe XD.

Shopify Website for SMB
This great little Texas business created an innovative way for consumers to have to use the magic of Sous Vide cooking in their own home.
Seota, helped Savour Sous Vide migrate from a WooCommerce website into a custom-designed Shopify Theme that was tailored to their brand.
A quick and effective project from the eCommerce team at Seota.

A great subscription based business based on uniquie content delivered to members via WP Courseware.

Custom Web Dev & UI/UX Design for Online Job Marketplace
“There were things that we thought were great ideas, but Bill’s suggestions were really helpful.”
the reviewer
the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the CEO of an online job marketplace that has to do with job description optimization. So we help get job postings optimized on Google. For example, if you're hiring a medical assistance to your doctor's office. If somebody just Google searches medical assistant jobs, it will pop up right away.
What challenge were you trying to address with Seota Digital Marketing?
They built our platform.
What was the scope of their involvement?
They did everything from the wireframes, to design, UX, and development for a WordPress site. It’s a fully-functioning job board that needed a custom build using PHP and CodeIgniter. To get started, we gave them some documents, PDFs, and thing slice that to give them an idea of how we wanted the platform to look.
What is the team composition?
Bill(CEO) is our main point of contact. We also worked with a project manager named Tim (COO), someone who was in charge of content, and one who was in charge of development.

The project lasted from March–June 2020.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
When we introduced features and ideas we wanted to implement, they already had those designs ready because they discovered it on their own. It was cool that they did market research on how valuable Google can be for a job search ahead of time. We didn’t have to hold their hand through the process at all.
How did Seota Digital Marketing perform from a project management standpoint?
They use Google Suite, such as Google Docs and Sheets. We had a shared drive so we could collaborate and update things in real-time. They would pass that back to us as they finished them.
In regards to the timeline, I think we extended it by a week or two but that was significantly quicker than other vendors. We added several things to the scope during development, so that was really impressive.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Bill was involved in the entire process. We enjoyed working with him specifically because he brought a lot of business acumen to the conversation. It wasn’t just about design and technical requirements; it was about putting us in the best position to appeal to users. He was almost like a consultant.
Are there any areas they could improve?
We used Google for project management, but it would have been nice to track the project on a system that could alert us. We were always in contact, but I just wish I was alerted when things were completed.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Go in with an open mind and rely on Bill as a resource. There were things that we thought were great ideas, but Bill’s suggestions were really helpful.

Web Redesign for Real Estate Appraisal Firm
"We are thrilled with the final product!"
the reviewer
the review
The client submitted this review online.
Please describe your company and your position there.
Gardiner Ray, LLC is a real estate appraisal and consulting firm specializing in valuation assignments and owned by Allen Gardiner, MAI, SRA and David Ray, SRA. My position is Office/Operations Manager. This encompasses accounting, human resources & all office operations.
For what projects/services did your company hire Seota Digital Marketing?
We hired Seota to help us improve our online presence and better represent our brand. We needed a fresh, modern look that would attract prospective business, communicate available services & focus on SEO. We needed a fully functional, mobile optimized, custom built website built on a stable platform, that also allowed for future growth.
What were your goals for this project?
As stated above, our goals were to improve our online presence, better represent our brand, attract prospective business and communicate available services to our target audience. It was also important that the website be user friendly across all platforms.
How did you select this vendor?
We actually interviewed several vendors. We didn't know what we didn't know... so the process was very educational. In the end, Seota understood what our goals were, without overselling things that knew we did not need at this time. Due to time constraints, we also needed a content write. They put us in touch with Jamie and she was FANTASTIC! They were very responsive, and that is extremely important to us!
Describe the project in detail.
Once we selected SEOTA, they worked on design & development, created mockups, we had a 1 or 2 in person meetings & a few video conferences. The website took longer to get up & running then we had hoped, but that was completely on us, as it took us longer to pull information together that we wanted on the site. Jamie did her best to keep us on track!
Our 2 company owners primarily provided the information to Jamie regarding specific content & I reviewed, made suggestions etc. The 3 of us plus Jamie & Bill all worked together.
What was the team composition?
The team was comprised of Bill (owner) & Jamie (content writer) (SEOTA, plus various people on their end) and our 2 company owners Allen Gardiner & David Ray, & myself. The team size remained the same for the duration of the project.
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The website just went live a few days ago, but we have already received comments & a few questions about our services, so we are off to a good start!
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
The communication was great. Email worked best for our team, but we had calls & meetings whenever needed. They were very easy to work with and very responsive.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
Bill is a wealth of knowledge with regards to digital marketing. He understood what our goals were and told us how to get there. He has a wonderfully efficient and responsive staff that work for him as well. We are thrilled with the final product!
Are there any areas for improvement?
None that I can think of.

Web Design & Dev for Pedestrian Product Construction Company
"I am most impressed by their genuine desire to be helpful."

the review
The client submitted this review online.
Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the Owner & President of a construction company in Frisco, TX. We specialize in photoluminescent emergency evacuation lighting, ADA handrails, and other pedestrian products to guide the visually impaired. We're experts in the applicable compliance codes, and provide consultation in addition to sales and certified installation.
For what projects/services did your company hire Seota Digital Marketing?
I hired Seota to design and develop the first website for our company. We experienced a sudden spike in sales as demand quickly increased for a new market opportunity that is now our business focus. It was clear that our company needed a professionally designed website to describe our services and to establish our brand.
What were your goals for this project?
We wanted a website that appeared high quality and user friendly while also being easily manageable. We didn't want a platform or design so complicated that maintaining it distracted our efforts to grow our business. We also wanted a website that made a solid impression of our brand - one that potential clients would trust.
How did you select this vendor?
I requested references from the entrepreneur education group that I lead. I also researched several options online, and ultimately chose Seota after talking with its owner, Bill Hogsett. I had a very good feeling about working with him from the start. I was happy to learn that Seota focuses so much effort on local small businesses as I have a passion for doing the same in my entrepreneur group.
Describe the project in detail.
The project began with a discussion between Bill, Seota's owner, and me. He later followed up with a questionnaire to help my company determine our goals for the web design and final product. After reviewing our responses, he provided a contract and assigned a team. The team provided 1 mock-up. We provided feedback, and a 2nd mock-up was provided and approved. Our companies were in frequent contact throughout the web development process as my team created and sourced most assets simultaneously.
What was the team composition?
The team consisted of a project manager, lead designer, and another developer or 2. Communication was very streamlined as I prefer. I mainly worked with the owner and lead designer.
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The most successful outcome from the project is having a company website that we are proud of. It exceeds our expectations, and is far better than anything that we could have developed on our own. We receive positive comments from both competitors and customers.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
The workflow was incredibly effective and timely. They finished the project on my timeline and could have completed it earlier if we had existing assets. Again, this was the first website for our company. I exchanged emails with the team multiple times per week. Their response time was fast. Seota is very accessible.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
I am most impressed by their genuine desire to be helpful and to position their clients for the best outcomes in our business endeavors. Seota is incredibly knowledgeable, and happy to share expertise to address any questions throughout the project. They push for optimal outcomes. They tackle problems that are even slightly out of project scope - delivering more value than what is required. Their pricing is very reasonable. Seota is a good group of people/experts who have a very personable and professional approach to business.
Are there any areas for improvement?
It would be helpful for Seota to create a content checklist with ideal specs such as recommended image sizes. This could be given to a client at the start of a project so that they can not only get content - but get it in the right format for optimization. Lastly, I suggest a conference to walk clients through the admin tools of a new website just before launch. This will help clients to better help themselves with editing and content additions as our businesses progress.

the reviewer
the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the president of ElectraTint.
What challenge were you trying to address with Seota Digital Marketing?
We were looking for the right company because we’ve been going through multiple SEO companies over the last few years. We wanted a company that could help us move forward and eliminate some of the problems we were having, as well as those we didn’t know we were having.
Before hiring Seota Digital Marketing, everything was falling apart. We had been working with a different company that was neither following through nor doing their work.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Bill (CEO) did my SEO and fixed elements on my e-commerce website that I didn’t even know were problematic. The team also provides analytics.
What is the team composition?
Bill is my main point of contact.
How did you come to work with Seota Digital Marketing?
I interviewed 15–17 companies after I decided that I wanted to let go of my previous company. Everyone said the right thing, but Bill stood out. I did some research on the websites that he had worked on.
I then asked to meet him in-person, and within three minutes of meeting him, I knew that I wanted to work with him. Before we signed the contract, I gave him access to my website to analyze.
By that night, he had already gotten into my website and fixed a major problem that I had been asking my two previous vendors to fix. I was so impressed and ecstatic, and I signed with him that night.
How much have you invested with them?
So far, we’ve spent about $8,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We’ve been working together for about two months, and our engagement is ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
I get leads almost daily now, which wasn’t the case before. We’ve already hit our numbers for the year, which is incredible. Bill gives advice where he doesn’t need to. I can’t say enough good things about him.
Everybody on my team has been impressed with Bill. He does exactly what he says he’s going to do with no complaints. Doing business with Seota Digital Marketing is amazing.
How did Seota Digital Marketing perform from a project management standpoint?
Bill responds incredibly quickly to any emails or phone calls. I’ve never seen anything like it. With other companies, they respond within 24 or 48 hours. With Bill, I haven’t gone a day without something being fixed.
If I send an email because I noticed a word that I didn’t like or because I want to make a change, he responds between 15–20 minutes. His level of communication and execution is incredible. We also have monthly calls where Seota Digital Marketing goes over the analytics with me.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Their response times and how fast they get work done are impressive. It feels like you truly are the only client working with them.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, there are no areas of improvement.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Look no further. I’ve done business with 6–7 other companies, and they don’t come close to Seota Digital Marketing.

Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the CMO for Stafford Appraisals, a small firm that focuses on residential appraisals.
What challenge were you trying to address with Seota Digital Marketing?
Stafford Appraisals had recently launched as a business, and we needed a website.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Seota Digital Marketing built a WordPress website from scratch. They assisted with content and the launch. For the design, we submitted an intake form; four days later, they came back with a design based on elements we had sent them.
What is the team composition?
Bill (Owner & CEO, Seota Digital Marketing) was involved on their end, and then it was me and the owner of Stafford Appraisals on our end.
How did you come to work with Seota Digital Marketing?
We found them through a web search. Based on online reviews, we felt confident that they understood the needs of small businesses.
How much have you invested with them?
My company spent $2,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We contacted them online in January 2020, and we wrapped up and went live in February. It was an extremely fast process.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Since it’s such a new website, I don’t have any metrics to share yet. However, I can say that internally, we’re extremely pleased with the end result. They listened to us and understood what we were trying to do. The design and the quick turnaround certainly achieved everything we were looking for.
They nailed the design; there was very little redesign work required. Having built several websites for other projects, I can tell you that it’s extremely unusual that they got the design the first time around.
How did Seota Digital Marketing perform from a project management standpoint?
Seota Digital Marketing was very responsive and willing to do everything we wanted in a timely fashion. We actually launched about five days sooner than we had originally specified, so they kept the project moving. We had a couple of short phone calls, but most communication was via email.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Their responsiveness and understanding of small businesses set them apart from other providers. They didn’t try to push things on us that a small business doesn’t need, so that was very much appreciated.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, we were very happy with the process.
Any advice for potential customers?
Definitely do your research and know what you’re looking for, because that speeds up the process. That is true for any website build.

I needed help to build a website. In the past, I built sites for other companies but the CBD industry has legal requirements that I was worried about the website fitting.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Seota Digital Marketing developed my WooCommerce website. Once I gave their team the go-ahead, the process was simple. I provided their team with a list of the pages and color schemes I wanted on the platform. To decide which visuals I wanted, they sent me different images to review.
