Clients: TestimonialsAlong with providing ROI-specific search engine marketing services, Anvil prides itself on top-notch customer service. If a client can't provide us an enthusiastic recommendation, we've done something wrong. The testimonials below demonstrate that we're able to keep our clients happy and deliver results. Why not join the list of satisfied customers? Ecommerce/Retail “Everyone I have worked with at Anvil has been attentive, dedicated, approachable and fun! The Anvil team members are masters of search engine marketing, and their hard work and guidance have helped our brand realize a remarkable increase in sales and visibility on the web. I'm looking forward to continuing to grow our e-commerce channel and overall web presence with Anvil.” "Anvil's Site Marketability Analysis Report told us which of our site features needed to be enhanced, what elements were missing, how to optimize our content and how to improve the overall marketability and search visibility of our site. They then helped us sensibly and economically prioritize our task list in order to start the overhaul. Many of the tasks were over our head, technically, so Anvil plugged us in with Sightworks (web developers) to execute the line items. The three way work relationship couldn't have operated any smoother. Big props to Anvil (and Sightworks) for getting us rolling in the right direction. As soon as the enhancements were in place, we noticed improved search results overnight." "We started working with Anvil Media in March as the Research Phase got underway. After the Research Phase, we swiftly moved into the Launch Phase where both our internal team and Anvil began implementing recommendations that came out of the Research Phase. Anvil hit all of their timelines and the documentation that was provided was very thorough, knowledgeable and based on our first month of reporting, has been very effective. We've seen a 25% increase in overall revenue, with a 1,300% increase coming from organic revenue. Anvil is excellent at what they do and have a very responsive, bright team that acts immediately to obtain results." "I took Anvil's advice and fully believe that it was right on. I wish I hadn't waited 2 years to do something about our site. I took a big pass through our site and changed it considerably, not only for the search engines, but for usability and appearance. Now after making the changes that Anvil recommended, not only has Google started sending me traffic again, but Yahoo traffic has increased as well, doubling the organic traffic to my web-site." "The Anvil team got right to work pin pointing the necessary changes for increasing traffic to our website. It was a model of efficiency. They laid out a very straight forward and easy to implement strategy. This combined with excellent tech support resulted in a significant increase in traffic. I particularly appreciated the prompt, clearly explained replies to my questions. No time was wasted in helping me get my competitive edge in the custom furniture industry." "Working with Anvil has been fantastic and we know that we can trust their expertise. Not only did they seamlessly transition the management of our PPC campaigns, but they continue to show outstanding results from their efforts." “Having worked with Anvil Media in a prior position, I knew that I could rely on them to help address SEO issues we were having with the website as well as launch our first ever SEM campaign. Anvil has delivered. Our web sales are exceeding expectations. However, the most important part of working with any agency is the relationship that you build with the client services team. The team at Anvil delivers in this area as well by being very responsive, meeting deadlines, providing creative and innovative solutions, and spending the time to learn our business.” “Like many businesses and industries today, our partners were asking us when we would dive into the world of social media. Pacific Rim is a thoughtful and creative company – so it was important to us that we do it right and do it differently than any of our competitors. Kent and his knowledgeable team at Anvil Media were invaluable in helping us to understand the possibilities of social media – the climate, the boundaries and the potential. It was important to us that the team at Anvil was with us at every step along our social media journey to provide strategic guidance and steer us toward success. Because of their knowledge of both the fundamentals and the possibilities of social media, we were able to push the boundaries of the media and deliver unprecedented results for our brand.” "Anvil has provided our Internet Marketing team great traction in our Google AdWords and Overture campaigns. Investing some of our online marketing budget to have Anvil manage our campaigns and keywords has proven a wise and prosperous investment from an ROI perspective. We feel we're getting even more "bang for the buck" for each dollar spent with Google and Overture through our partnership with Anvil." "As a small, ambitious start-up company, point6 jumped into the world of online sales head first, but without a lot of experience among the team! Fortunately, for us, Anvil was there to help guide us and offer meaningful advice as we designed and implemented new programs, including a critical redesign of the new website. By implementing Anvil’s suggested changes to the site, the results were immediate and very effective. Anvil has been a constant source of inspiration and gladly offers a wealth of information to help us optimize our online business strategies. We have been very impressed with Anvil’s thorough methodology, detailed reporting and the helpful training they provide us along the way. Presenting technical data in a user-friendly manner is a great accomplishment. We look forward to increasing our relationship with Anvil as point6 as we grow the business over the next several years." Education “Anvil Media has been a wonderful partner for helping Animationmentor.com leverage social media tools to grow its business. They helped optimize our communications and format our messaging to get the most bang for our buck from sites like Facebook and Twitter. They were also very pro-active about finding ways to leverage our marketing strategies like banner campaigns, Webinars, blogs and news coverage and promote those even more in new media. Our combined PR and marketing campaigns have really benefited from the extra push we got from Anvil's expertise. They are smart, supportive and extremely customer focused. We've thoroughly enjoyed our experience with them." “Anvil has proven to be a great resource for pay per click, organic SEO and other online services. Their insight, counsel and ROI reporting has helped ClickSafety remain competitive and profitable in a tough marketplace. I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking to boost their online presence.” – Click Safety "Anvil has caused us to think differently about our business practices and our approach to effective recruiting strategies in higher education today and tomorrow. They have brought skills, processes and resources to the tables which have been impactful and transformative. Concordia considers Anvil to be a valuable partner as we attempt to share our University with a broad regional audience" "Anvil Media's expertise in the PPC and SEO industry is unparalled. We were very impressed with the thoroughness of their reporting; it made our decision-making easy. Their recommendations were right on point, and their responsiveness to our needs and changes have been a pleasant suprise we've not found with other vendors." "We’ve been in the industry a long time and have worked with many agencies and consultants and I would say that Anvil is one of the best. They really know their stuff! We got expert advice on optimizing our site code and copy which improved our organic rankings." Financial Services "Anvil was brought on to help increase the visibility of our Web site through both organic listings and PPC. Anvil has been extremely receptive to our needs and has delivered on our PPC campaigns, as we are seeing a huge increase in leads. We appreciate Anvil’s hard work and look forward to a long relationship." "The folks at Anvil really know their stuff. They have helped me through every step of transforming my business into a successful online marketing machine. It is amazing the opportunity to drive business using digital marketing, and Anvil has helped me to target my market and go after it!" Healthcare/Fitness "Our experience with Anvil is that you guys not only know your stuff, but are able to present it in an educational and implementable format which was important for us. Your reputation precedes you.” "We've been a Google AdWords advertiser since 2003, and even though we were proficient in managing our account and seeing some success, we engaged Anvil to consult in further optimizing our campaigns. Their work paid off in the first few weeks, with twice the amount of leads for the same amount of money." Hospitality/Travel/Tourism "As a growing business with limited resources, we appreciate Anvil’s cost-effective, high-value consulting services. Since we first started working with Anvil a few year’s ago, we’ve been able to steadily increase sales conversions and search engine visibility. When it comes to search engine marketing strategy, we can count on Anvil for solid advice." "Anvil was engaged to help evaluate and improve our website's SEO strategy, as well as expand our PPC marketing efforts. They are doing a great job and we are really happy with the results so far. Beyond the boost we've seen in all metrics associated with search engine marketing (both organic and paid), they have also been extremely helpful with ad-hoc inquiries and ongoing efforts beyond the initial analysis and recommendations. They even helped connect us with good sources of traditional PR (interview with Maxwell PR) and helped us find a good hire through pdxMindShare." "Anvil Media has been an integral part of developing our online marketing presence. We've found their subject-matter expertise to be surpassed only by their personalized customer service. They have worked with us to craft solutions and marketing approaches unique to our business and the results have been impressive. The weekly interaction with our account manager has been very beneficial to our project." "Anvil has brought our level of search engine marketing to where we've always wanted to be - we can now track our return on investment and put our marketing dollars into results that deliver." "In the past, our company has spent a lot of time, effort and money to try and improve our properties’ websites on search engines. Nothing garnered us much success. In a matter of a few weeks, Anvil Media’s experts did a thorough analysis of our first site and started us on a path to improve our rankings. It can’t be easy for them to work within our budget and brand restraints, but they do an outstanding job for us. They come up with creative ideas, stay in frequent communication, and even take the time to teach us some of the basics of what needs to be done so we can apply it to other websites. These days, it is almost impossible for the average business to try to stay on top of SEO technologies, but because we work with Anvil, we don’t have to worry about that anymore." “The work Anvil has done for Jackson Hole Central Reservations has been very thorough and prompt. The SEO and PPC audit and subsequent changes have had a positive impact on our summer traffic with an increase in PPC and a significant increase in organic search with our targeted keywords. Although we have just started scraping the surface of the social media and online reputation audits, both seem very thorough and progressive in their suggested changes. In addition, Anvil’s account managers are readily available and informative in answering ALL of our questions.” "In the more than five years that Travel Portland has worked with Anvil Media, they’ve become a key partner; one that we depend on for core services that are critical to our online reach and performance. Not only have they consistently proven their leadership in Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing, Anvil proactively comes to us with creative and insightful ideas for reaching new customers online and deepening engagement with our existing customers. Anvil’s staff have proven to be absolutely expert. From suggesting strategies to executing them to reporting on performance, the level of quality of their work is unparalleled. We rely on them for key business intelligence with our online efforts, and their impact on our online performance is measurable and significant – it is with their help that we consistently outperform our online goals year after year." Mobile and Wireless "Anvil is solid... that's really the best way to put it. ELEVEN has, from the beginning, been extremely budget constrained across the company, and especially in marketing. Even with this major barrier, Anvil pulled through and worked wonders for us. The Anvil team worked within our constraints, put a plan in place, delivered the most compelling strategy possible and successfully executed." Non-Profit "Anvils incredibly knowledgeable team educated our staff on how to think more strategically about our web site. We were amazed at how many simple (and no cost) things we could be doing to maximize the effectiveness and usefulness of our web site, thus increasing online traffic. Their suggestions, feedback and instruction have been invaluable. We highly recommend Anvil to other businesses and nonprofit organizations looking to build their online presence!" "Anvil Media provided us with excellent ideas and training on search engine optimization for our economic development Web sites. The Anvil staff is creative, savvy and very easy to work with - I highly recommend their services." "After re-branding our organization and simultaneously switching domains, I knew we needed the help of SEM professionals. We turned to Anvil and their thorough research to guide our business through this transitional period. Anvil outlined certain optimization techniques, current web visibility and marketability and provided us with potential opportunities. Anvil even delivered an SEO roadmap prioritizing their recommendations thus making our transition easier." "As a non-profit organization, we neither had the staff nor the resources to maximize our presence on the web until we met Anvil. By partnering with Anvil, we're on our way to achieving a website that's comparable to that of any for profit business. Our mission is to prevent abuse and thanks to Anvil, we are now giving life-saving information to a world wide audience." "Thank you for all of your hard work Anvil! We have never had so many volunteer inquiries and our online donations continue to rise. I have to think that your efforts have had made this possible." “The Shadow Project is fortunate to benefit from Anvil's time and talent. The Research Phase work Anvil has done is changing the way our organization perceives itself, its relationship to the virtual world and ultimately, the impact on the children we serve. Anvil's commitment to education in the Research Phase, level of detail, caring and insight regarding web content and outreach has been truly eye-opening. With Anvil's help the Portland community will come to appreciate and support the amazing kids The Shadow Project is dedicated to helping!” Professional Services "Here's a firm that delivers value every single month because they don't stop thinking about ways to improve our online advertising programs. Looking at the numbers, it's clear that Anvil's relentless attention to bid management, network selection data analysis and the myriad other parts of a successful PPC strategy continues to bring costs down, capture new audiences and build a body of knowledge that informs our overall online strategy." "From the start, Anvil Media provided us the SEO training we needed. Not only did they tell us how to update our site for search engine rankings, but they told us why each step was important. I wish we would have engaged them from the start even before we built our new site." “DIBroker’s previous agency relationships often led to poor performance and lengthy excuses. Anvil Media has gained DIBroker’s trust through their analytic approach to paid search and SEO. Thanks to Anvil we are back in the game!” "From my experience of working with Anvil Media over the past several months, they have demonstrated a very high level of knowledge on all things SEM, as well as incredible professionalism and enthusiasm for the industry. GTS has benefitted from their advanced knowledge of Pay-per-Click campaign management, website optimization and local search. Our contact is very easy to talk to, and answers questions sent via email quickly and concisely. I have very much enjoyed working with Anvil." Publishing "We were already seeing over 5 million uniques per month on our site, but wanted to know if Anvil could take us further. In just a short amount of time, they understood our business and presented a concise list of suggestions. We've implemented the first half of the list and the increase in visibility and site traffic are dramatic. This was the best money spent - ever." Real Estate "We approached Anvil with the goal of having a newly created web site rank in the top three positions of Google Local and in the first page of Google organic rankings. Following Anvil's clear, step-by-step advice we were able to achieve these goals in a relatively short period of time with very little knowledge of web design and search engine optimization. We now drive approximately 50% of our business from our Internet presence in a cost-effective manner. I would highly recommend Anvil's services to any company seeking to increase the number of qualified sales leads via the Internet. " "Anvil Media provided the direction our website needed with a thorough long-term website strategy that examined our strengths and weaknesses and outlined opportunities for our business. They provided the tactics necessary to execute our strategy including SEO copywriting, usability and social media promotion; helping to take our business to new heights." Software "It was a pleasure working with Anvil Media, Inc. Anvil's team completed top work for AmberPoint by improving our SEO and PPC campaigns. Anvil's team demonstrated great competence in all facets of the project and their actions and recommendations have really helped our company's online visibility. During the two month project, Anvil's recommendations and guidance helped to increase AmberPoint's online visibility by 61%. Moving forward will be much easier with the systems Anvil has set in place, and we are sure to see even greater benefits in all areas of search engine marketing." “I wish we started with working with Anvil since we launched Attensa. Knowledgeable, creative and efficient, Anvil consistently delivers measurable results. Without a doubt Anvils gives Attensa big bang for the buck and they have helped me reach a higher level of marketing bliss." "Anvil has proved itself with results that count: increasing the value of our PPC marketing campaigns by more than three-fold, and increasing our organic search visibility to near the top-ranks of our category. They are experts who take initiative and integrate very well with our team." "We outsourced our SEM management to Anvil over six months ago and have had great results. John, our Account Executive, has done an outstanding job communicating with us and maximizing results while staying within our specified budget. The Anvil team is professional, proactive, and I would highly recommend working with them." -- CUI "We came to Anvil with a tight timeframe for our new site launch and asked them to help us build a site from the ground up with SEO best practices. From their initial audit, through keyword selection and page optimization, they worked with both our development and content teams to fine tune the site design. So far we are seeing good results, and have found their expertise to be a great complement to our in house efforts." “Thanks to Anvil and their help with our Analytics installation, we can now track all of our online conversions. Anvil has been a true partner, by listening to our goals and objectives and executing an analytics plan to support and measure our online marketing efforts, we use analytics to make informed online marketing decisions.”— Yesmail |
