About us
AN UNLIKELY PAIR
Onward was founded by an SEO and content strategist who led separate teams at the same full-service agency. While we worked in different departments, we encountered increasingly complex digital problems and realized our two disciplines were more interconnected than you might imagine—they needed to work together in a new way.
UX AND SEO, THE BEST OF BOTH PERSPECTIVES
In years past, it might’ve seemed that providing a great user experience and pleasing search engines were two diametrically opposed forces. The truth is they’re more like best friends, a match made in heaven—perfect for each other.
HALLELUJAH! HARMONY
Your visitors have to be able to find you, and once you’re found, they need to be engaged and impressed. It can be difficult determining which one deserves to be prioritized, that’s why we take a balanced approach from the very start.
