I approached a number of SEO companies when I was considering switching my website - vanillarose.co.uk - from my existing SEO. Big Surf Digital was the only company who provided me with a comprehensive plan, detailing where my website rated in regards to keywords, where we could improve, and how this could be done - at a very competitive price. Since Big Surf Digital have optimised my site, my rankings have increased considerably for my keywords and are continuing to do so.
The impact on my business has been noticeable. In addition, they have provided valuable advice on how to improve my site and I have found meetings both informative and understandable - for a technophobe! I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them to prospective clients.
