Vancouver web design and local SEO agency with dental and orthodontic client work
About Stigan Media
Stigan Media is a web design and online marketing agency in Vancouver. It works from 55 Water Street in Gastown and has a mailing address in Burnaby. It was founded in 2009 by two partners known by first name only: Sandro, who is managing director, and Adwin, who is managing partner. The team has fewer than ten people. The agency works with web developers, PPC and SEO specialists, copywriters and designers.
Both founders came from directory advertising sales. Adwin had run his family's restaurant in Maple Ridge and then moved into print sales. Sandro trained as a chef, studied at BCIT and later led online sales at a directory company, where he trained more than 70 staff each week. They started the agency because their clients could not find complete marketing services, and the services they did find were often overpriced.
Every SEO project begins with a free site audit. The work then covers keyword research, meta and heading fixes, blog and social content, link building and local SEO. For local SEO, they put local keywords on pages and listings, add the business to local directories, collect reviews and earn links from nearby sites. Their target areas include Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey, Richmond, Langley, Coquitlam, Abbotsford and Kelowna. Clients get monthly progress reports. The agency holds Google Partner, Microsoft Advertising and Semrush agency partner badges, and it builds landing pages in Unbounce.
They have several pieces of dental work. For Fraser Point Dental in Vancouver, they built a site with pages for whitening, implants and orthodontics, patient care content, testimonials and booking prompts, along with speed and SEO work. Rosemary Heights Family Dental in South Surrey received a new website and SEO. An orthodontic practice in Surrey has worked with them since November 2012. That work covered the website, SEO, content, Google and Facebook ads and retargeting, and the practice credits it with steady 15% annual growth and most of its new patients. Non-dental SEO results include organic traffic gains of 120%, 204% and 295%.
They are rated 4.9 on Clutch from 15 reviews. Reviewers often describe the team as timely, honest and communicative. The main criticism is that the small team sometimes causes delays. They also have 64 Google reviews.
No price list is published. Hourly rates run $100 to $149, with a minimum project of $5,000. There are no binding contracts, and they offer a free audit, a free proposal and an introductory discount. The agency fits single-location general, family and orthodontic practices in the Lower Mainland that want one team for the website, local SEO and ads.
