Upward Engine created multiple websites that will be SEO optimized on day 1.

Creating professional looking websites with video and SEO integration. And being able to build the sites in a timely manner so these business could launch without delays.

Yes, they worked swiftly and professionally to get things done.

Email or Messaging App

I was impressed with their culture of helpfulness and kindness.

I would have loved a few more in-person updates (via zoom or in-person). But they did a great job communicating via email and they worked quickly.

I am the Owner of True North Injury Law, a personal injury law practice. We focus on helping clients with their personal injury cases and needed to establish a strong online presence as we set up the firm.

When we started working with Upward Engine, we were just setting up the practice. Our main objectives were to have them build our website, help us get noticed online, and establish authority in our field. I had worked with several other companies during my career and no one was really doing a great job.

We've worked with 2–5 team members from Upward Engine assigned to our project.

We chose Upward Engine because their pricing fit our budget, they were a great culture fit, and offered good value for the cost. I also appreciated their monthly billing structure, which shows they are willing to prove their worth instead of taking your money and leaving you with service that doesn't really fit your needs.

Our engagement began in July 2023, and the project is ongoing.

Upward Engine does a wonderful job at being transparent and timely. Their project management has been excellent throughout the engagement. We communicate via virtual meetings, emails, and messahges.

Their willingness to be open, have difficult conversations, and use real metrics to measure success stands out. It never feels like they just want to take my money and leave me with a generic process that doesn't fit my industry.

No, there aren't any.

Ran all aspects of my Google Search Ads and my Remarketing.

Didn't get any of the monthly reporting was suppose to and they tanked my google ad account by doing something that didn't feel was best practices. There idea of working on an account is just uping the ad spend to make sure that it spends what says in contract so can get paid for that month. They did no A/B testing or segment any products. There idea of getting creatives is getting some pictures I had upgraded off my website. Was with them for like 3 months canceled then had meeting and talked me in to staying then go 3 more months and didn't do anything new to account just changed ROAS and tanked my ads and sales dropped $6-8k because of the one change they did to my account then I cancel there GREAT service for good and the ended up costing me anywhere from 5-10K in sales over 3-4 day period because when I cancelled they went in at turned off Search campaign which they was managing for me but they ALSO TURNED OFF MY SHOPPING ADS which they was not

Got up and running fast but after that didn't do a whole lot.

Nothing. They talked a good game but didn't deliver.

Yes could have done AB testing and should have broken ad sets up.

Starting with ourselves, Upward Engine submitted dozens of citations for local search optimization. We were so happy with the communication/management of the project that we expanded it into a white label service for our agency's SEO clients as well. They've deliver a checklist of the citations and keep it regularly updated with statuses of that submitted citation.

Upward Engine provided a benchmark screenshot of where ourselves and our clients were ranking geographically on a Map Rank Tracker in SEMRush, and every month show us the improvements in our ranking.

They manage our projects very efficiently and communicate great! If I've reached out, I always get a response within a day, but I rarely need to reach out because they've set expectations clearly from the start.

Their communication and project management

Not at the moment.

I am the Managing Partner of PT Website Secrets

Web agency for Physical Therapy practices

Online Search

Our company designs and manages websites for Physical Therapy practices. We hired SEO Werkz to offer clients Google PPC ad management services, in order to get more traffic to our client's websites and more patients into our clients' clinics. Once a client contracts with us for ad management, we collect the campaign strategy and information from the client, then deliver it to SEO Werkz to build and manage the campaigns.Once the campaign is live, they provide ongoing support and management to optimize and report on the results.

Our clients have been very pleased with the results from SEO Werkz. They have seen increases in high quality leads and sales for their clinic, and the costs per click have been good, leading to a great return on their investment within the first few months of the campaigns starting.

They have generally been on time with the deliverables and good at responding back to us within a reasonable time when we have questions or changes.

They're willing to work closely with us to meet our clients' specific needs, as though they were part of our team.

No.
