How we work with LA businesses.

Four steps from first call to reporting. You own your accounts, your website and your data the whole way.

  1. Free audit

    We review your website, Google Business Profile, ads and the LA competitors you're up against.

  2. Plan and proposal

    A written plan with channels, budget and targets for your market. You approve the scope and price before any work starts.

  3. Build and launch

    Your team sets up tracking, fixes what holds you back and launches campaigns, pages and content.

  4. Report and improve

    A live dashboard shows leads, calls, sales and spend, and your PM walks you through it on a regular call.

No LA office.
Here's how that works.

We don't have a storefront in Los Angeles, and we won't pretend to. SmartSites is a remote team, with people working across the country, including here in California.

  • Meet by video at a time that suits you.
  • A named project manager and specialist on every account.
  • Live reporting in your client dashboard, available any time.

“I was worried about using a company that was out of my area due to the face to face meetings not being possible, I decided to go ahead with SmartSites after several virtual meetings because it was clear that communications would not be a problem.”

Los Angeles digital marketing FAQs.

It depends on the channels you need, your ad budget and how competitive your market is. Most LA clients pay a monthly management fee, plus their own ad budget for Google Ads or social. Every plan starts with a free audit and a written proposal, so you see the scope and price before you sign.

Google Ads can send leads in the first weeks after launch; Monster Tree Service in Riverside had 22 leads in its second month. SEO builds more slowly: most campaigns show clear movement within three to six months, depending on your site and competition. We never guarantee rankings, because Google does not allow anyone to.

No. SmartSites is a remote team working across the US, including team members in California: Whittier, San Diego and Napa. LA clients meet us by video, get a live reporting dashboard, and have a named project manager and specialist on every account.

The best digital marketing agency in Los Angeles 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 whether the contract lets you leave. We answer all of these in the first call.

A digital marketing agency brings in customers online. For LA 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. Osborne Law in Ventura grew its Google Business Profile views 53% with this work.

Our 192 Southern California clients include retail and ecommerce brands, home services, professional services, B2B companies, auto businesses, medical and dental practices, law firms, hospitality and industrial firms.

For most small and mid-sized LA businesses, yes. One agency fee buys a strategist, 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 dashboard.
