Fantastic support throughout setting up and transitioning our digital services to Arken. Have used other companies before and would highly recommend Arken Digital. Thanks for all your expert help and knowledge.

Every now and then, you leave a five-star review because you’ve had a good experience, but this time, I genuinely cannot fault Richard and the entire team at Arkin Digital for the incredible work they have done on our website.
I first reached out to Richard a few years ago after an awful experience with another company that cost me a significant amount of money and ultimately that company went bust for obvious reasons. That experience was one of the worst I have ever had in any profession, especially in an industry where the consumer often has little knowledge and limited ability to research effectively. It left me feeling completely helpless.
However, Richard stepped in and, for a small charge, did what he could to improve my existing website. Even though the previous site never reflected the value I had paid, his help at that time gave us the ability to continue growing our business. When we were finally in a position to invest in a new website, we had no doubt about who we wanted to work with.
From start to finish, Richard has been exceptional. He reassured us throughout the process and helped craft a website that I could not be happier with. In fact, I feel the complete opposite of how I did with my previous website. I now feel like I should have paid far more than I actually did. The entire project took around six months, with countless back-and-forth discussions, yet not once did he complain or come across as frustrated. He was always patient, professional, and willing to go the extra mile to get things just right.
It is highly unlikely that as we grow, we will ever look elsewhere for our digital needs. Arkin Digital has earned our trust completely. Thank you, Richard, for all the work you have done. I am excited to see where you can take our business with SEO.
Many thanks,

I've worked with Arken Digital for over 3 years now and Richard and his team do an awesome job. We are a small B to C site. I have worked with other SEO agencies, but have never had one perform well enough to stay with them longer than 6 months. Arken's attention to detail and execution are excellent and I would highly recommend them.

Richard and the team at Arken are absolutely phenomenal to work with, and they're also great human beings to boot. The time, care, and attention to detail they put into my project felt as if they were designing something for a close friend, not just a client. I would highly recommend speaking with, and hiring them for your needs as well!

Arken delivered a web project for our business efficiently and on budget. They were a real ease to work with and we couldn't recommend them more.

We hired Richard to help us update/refresh our logo and website, having implemented our previous website using Godaddy and having the same logo for over 30 years. Richard was brilliant at taking our feedback on board and working to a quick turnaround time. Our website and logo now look amazing with a fresh modern feel.

Fully recommend Arken. Rich did a great job on the site, agreeing updates beforehand, ensure changes were tested too. The updates were done quickly, efficiently and accurately. Since the changes we have seen excellent improvements in our organic rankings for the keywords that Rich focused on after agreeing them with us. Definitely will be using Arken again in future.
