Prolific North Top 50 Digital Agencies

The Prolific North Top 50 Digital Agencies is a definitive listing of the North’s largest and best digital agencies, spanning SEO and PPC, web, content, mobile and eCommerce. It’s now widely recognised across the region as the yardstick for the digital sector.

As well as improving our position in an ultra-competitive market, we are also proud to be the third highest independently owned business in the list. With big buyouts and large corporations increasing their presence in the North it is a testament to our ethos that we continue to thrive.

To establish the list, Prolific North works together with leading research company Mustard Research to make an informed decision on the top 50 digital agencies in the North of England. They evaluate over 150 digital agencies that are either based in the North, or have offices here, as well as asking the agencies themselves to submit supplementary financial and related data.

Econsultancy Top 100

In a top 100 featuring what must be a record low of 26 independent agencies, Click Consult showed it is more than capable of competing with some of the world’s top media groups. In a year which has seen some fantastic client wins, good growth in turnover and award after award, Click Consult can be more than a little pleased with its showing in this year’s top 100.

To begin, the overall tables saw Click rise seven places on last year’s performance, placing at 73 of the 100 agencies across the UK.

Strong performances continued in the broken up tables, too, with Click Consult placing number 44 of the 57 full service marketing agencies – which represents an impressive six place climb over 2016. While SEO and PPC by fee sees rankings of thirty from forty-seven and thirty-second of forty-six respectively, Click Consult also placed sixth of seven for the North West region overall.

However, when the table is restricted to independent agencies, the improvement is even starker – with an increase of 19 places on the previous year, demonstrating Click Consult’s amazing performance against independently owned competition (finishing as the top performing independent in the North West region).

When the North West was again split by service, Click Consult retained its position as the highest fee earner for SEO for the second consecutive year and also finished fourth for PPC fees.

All in all, it’s been another year that Click Consult can be extremely proud of with industry accolades now backed by clear improvement in the rankings of one of the most prestigious reports in the digital sector.

With the recent success of the third Benchmark Search Conference (showing 30% growth year on year) and taking the crown as the UK’s best digital agency for 2017, the future is looking fantastically bright for everyone at Click Consult – clients included.

The Drum Top 100 Independent Agencies

With award win following award win at the moment, some great client wins and exciting upcoming pitches, Click Consult has exceeded expectations time after time. Nevertheless, it is still an honour to be recognised amongst the top 100 independent agencies in the United Kingdom.

While we are more than prepared to let our work for clients speak for itself, the accolades that are coming thick and fast through the doors here at Click are gratefully received and help us to demonstrate to clients that our unique approach to search marketing not only works, but works extremely well.

With plenty of accolades still up for grabs as 2017 draws to a close amidst the digital sector’s award season, it is unlikely to be the last piece of industry recognition to come to Click Consult this year (we’ve already had to hang two or three additional shelves in 2017), but with each accolade and as the pride in our work grows, so too does our determination to improve and to do more again next year.
