We don't have a storefront in Houston, and we won't pretend to. SmartSites is a remote team, with people working across the country, including here in Greater Houston.
It depends on the channels you need, your ad budget and how competitive your market is. SEO starts at $2,600 a month, and PPC management starts at $750 a month or 15% of your ad spend, whichever is greater. Most Houston clients pay a monthly management fee, plus their own ad budget for Google Ads or social. Every proposal includes a free review of where you stand today, so you see the scope and price before any work starts.
Google Ads campaigns usually go live 1.5 to 2.5 weeks after we have access to your accounts, then need a learning period of about 2 to 4 weeks, so the first weeks are for gathering data. SEO builds more slowly: expect about 3 to 5 months for meaningful traffic and leads, though some clients see results in as little as 60 days, depending on your site and competition. Rankings usually move first, then traffic, then leads. We never guarantee rankings, because as Google itself says, no one can guarantee a #1 ranking.
No. SmartSites is a remote team working across the US, including team members in Katy, Rosharon and Houston. Houston clients meet us by video, see live reporting in the Client Hub, and have a named project manager and specialist on every account.
The best digital marketing agency in Houston for you is the one that can show proof from businesses like yours: case studies with real numbers, reviews you can verify on Clutch or Google, and the names of the people who will run your account. Check who owns your ad accounts and website, how results are reported, and how often you will meet. We answer all of these in the first call.
A digital marketing agency brings in customers online. For Houston businesses that usually means SEO to rank in Google and Google Maps, paid ads on Google, Microsoft and Meta, a website built to convert, social media, and email and SMS to bring buyers back. SmartSites handles all of these under one roof.
Yes. Local SEO covers your Google Business Profile, categories, photos, reviews, service-area settings and location pages, plus consistent listings across directories.
Our 45 Houston-area clients include medical and dental practices, retail and ecommerce brands, industrial and commercial firms, home services companies, law firms and professional services firms.
For most small and mid-sized Houston businesses, yes. One agency gives you a project manager, a PPC analyst, SEO and content specialists, designers and developers, plus the software they use. You keep ownership of your accounts and data, and you can see every result in your Client Hub.
