SQUIDGY

We are SQUIDGY. We’re independent and we’re based up North. As most digital agencies do, SQUIDGY was started out of a bedroom, over a decade ago by Andy Robson. We’ve grown a lot since then, not just in our skills but in the size of our team, but we still stick to what we’re good at: digital marketing, with SEO, PPC and social media at our core. We don’t have loads of account managers, vast offices, false office addresses, restrictive shareholders or stupidly high overheads to give the appearance that we’re bigger than we actually are.We deliver the same, if not better levels of experience and knowledge than the big players - we’re all time-served digital agency workers, who got tired of having their client’s budgets eaten up with unnecessary, meaningless stuff. You get to work directly with the experts regardless of who you are. No account management gatekeepers or complicated team structures. No staff turnover. No fluff. Just SQUIDGY.
