Digitalhound is a London-based SEO and digital marketing agency helping eCommerce, legal, travel, hospitality and retail businesses get found online. With 25+ years of experience and 97.3% client retention, we focus on revenue, not vanity metrics. We've turned down £60,000+ in fees from businesses we knew we couldn't help.
How did Digitalhound start?
Digitalhound started in 2014 because we saw a gap in the market. Too many agencies were all talk and no substance. Fancy presentations, corporate jargon, and strategies that looked great on paper but didn't deliver actual business results.Fast forward to today and we're a full team of specialists who've worked on 500+ campaigns across SEO, PPC, social media, email, and web design. We've picked up a few awards along the way, but what we're most proud of is the results we've driven for clients: increased sales, better conversion rates, and marketing that actually pays for itself.
What Makes Digitalhound Different?
Our approach is straightforward. We start with data, not assumptions. We analyse where your customers come from, what your competitors are doing, and where the real opportunities lie. Then we build strategies and content that actually work for your business, not what's hot this month or what we used on the last client.We're a mix of creatives, analysts, and strategists. Some of us live in spreadsheets, others in design tools. But we all agree on the same big idea: whatever you need to dominate search rankings, build a social media presence that drives business, or create campaigns that convert, let's do it once. Let's do it right. And let's prove that it works.Transparency matters to us. You'll always know what we're doing, why we're doing it, and what it's costing. No waffle, no hidden extras, no fluff. Just honest digital marketing that treats your budget like it's our own.What works? Strategy grounded in data, clear communication, and a relentless focus on measurable results.
