Review Summary

Since engaging 9thCO Inc, our department has experienced a significant increase in user satisfaction. With the support of the new system development, our senior members have had the opportunity to concentrate on more account management as opposed to resource conflict resolution. Consequently, our production output has witnessed a considerable upswing.

Web Development

Describe your project in brief

As our department expanded, the demand for better systems has become evident. Given our distributed client base, establishing a streamlined resource management system seemed logical. In addition to this, we've had to leverage multiple disparate systems, which results in scheduling and billing conflicts as well as unnecessarily high licensing fees.

What is it about the company that you appreciate the most?

The standout quality of 9thCO lies in their ability to source exceptional talent. Every new team member surpassed our expectations.

What was it about the company that you didn't like which they should do better?

The project took 4 weeks longer than we would have liked, but it’s a solid application.

Review Summary

The process commenced with an initial consultation call to discuss our requirements and objectives. Subsequently, a detailed plan was presented, with a focus on on-site optimization and site speed. An account manager was then designated, who delivered customized reports and benchmarks. The results achieved thus far have been exceptional. Since the initial optimization took place, and thereafter focusing on off-site activities, we’ve been able to achieve 630 keywords on the first page. The experience has been remarkably smooth and effective.

The only area that might have benefited from some additional clarity was the tracking of return on investment (ROI), although it's important to note that this can be a challenging aspect for any SEO agency to address.
