to me

We engaged Digital Defined Marketing following a friendly but professional initial meeting and discussion. Ben and the team shared our views on business and were genuinely empathetic to our small, community-based but ambitious company.

We brought Digital Defined on board with the objective of growing our revenues consistently across all our product ranges. As planned, Ben and the team took the time to thoroughly understand our company and business sector, then fine-tuned our website, SEO strategy, tracking, and back-office systems to position us for sales growth.

Within six months, we exceeded the targets we set together. Our online revenue is now tracking over double year-on-year.

The team’s advice on all aspects of digital marketing and social media has been invaluable, and we look forward to continuing this productive relationship as we grow Great British Yarns.

We have been working together for about a year, focusing on SEO growth and Google Ads for lead generation. We hit our 2025 goal by summer and have seen consistent progress since. Ben is really knowledgeable, and you can really see Hannah’s passion in her creative work. Their enthusiasm and genuine interest in our business and goals is clear throughout. Great team — proactive, reliable, and results-focused. I can't wait to start working on our 2026 campaign. Highly recommend.

Ben and the team got my business (rewired therapy) quickly set up for Google ads and within a few days I was seeing clients. Their expertise helped me to undo many mistakes I was making following the Google AI recommendations and saved many £££. Now working on meta campaigns and further raising profile. Highly recommend

We are so pleased and impressed with not only the fantastic, stylish, and very user-friendly website, but also the above and beyond hard work you’ve put in.
Your ability and patience “herding cats” to gather information and content from so many stakeholders, whilst managing to get the new site up and running on time has helped us to create the perfect platform which generates A LOT more users and leads.
With the huge changes in our SEO results, our franchisees will be grateful as they’ll no longer have to solely rely on Google ads to generate leads for their schools.

Ben & the team at Digital Defined recently re-built our website. Along with helping us to better define our brand and solutions, we've seen a 232% increase in Organic traffic to the site. The SEO competitor planning and research prior to building the site ensured we had the perfect content and SEO strategy and beautiful site that works well on all devices.
CPHT L.
Since Digital Defined took over our Google Ads Campaign we have received a regular supply of qualified leads. As a result our hypnotherapy training courses are usually oversubscribed. This has been despite the very difficult market created by the Corona Virus. We at CPHT Leeds are very grateful to the team at Digital Defined for their support and professionalism. Thank you.
Jenny M.
Excellent service. Delighted with the increase in leads from my Google Ads campaign since working with Digital Defined. Definitely worth the investment if you’re looking for good solid leads that convert into ongoing business. Would definitely recommend.

Website Migration Service: Moving Your Existing Site

Moving a website can be risky if it’s not handled properly. We offer a website migration service to smoothly transfer your existing site to our hosting servers. It’s the best option if you don’t have the technical expertise in-house to handle a site migration.

We always recommend you let us handle your website migration if your site is complex or critical to your day-to-day business operations (e.g. an online shop). We can complete the move faster and save you from any mistakes or downtime.

We follow best practices to mitigate any migration issues

Full pre-migration audit to ensure nothing is overlooked
Back up everything - files, database and emails (where needed)
Use the right redirects for new URLs
Safeguard SEO with migration of settings, metadata and analytics
Tested before going live
Closely monitor key areas like traffic and uptime immediately after migration

How long does a website migration take?

Smaller sites can be migrated in a few hours, while larger ones may take a couple of days. The total time needed to migrate your website to a new host will depend on the size and complexity of your site. The more files and databases, the longer it will take. We’ll give you as close an estimate as we can.

Will my website go down during the migration?

We plan your site move carefully to avoid downtime - usually, this should only be for a few minutes while DNS updates settle.

We’ll test your site in a staging area before going live with the migration, which helps minimise the risk of substantial downtime. We’ll aim to move it at a quieter traffic time to reduce any impact. We’ll also ensure your site is fully backed up, just in case any unexpected issues do occur.
