Today we celebrate Ballyhoo’s 17th birthday! We are so proud to continue helping clients succeed online.
Who are Ballyhoo?
Seventeen years ago, we embarked on a mission to empower businesses by helping them truly succeed online. Over nearly two decades, the digital landscape has transformed, and Ballyhoo has evolved alongside it. We have continuously adapted our strategies and honed our expertise in web development, web design, digital marketing, and ongoing support to ensure our clients always remain competitive and visible.
Founded in 2009, we’ve come a far way from the box room home office that Anthony managed solely, now with a five-strong team (who have been here for 4, 12 and 14 years respectively), and many clients, ranging from sole traders to multinational corporations, that we value highly and enjoy working with each day.
Our 87% client retention rate and positive reviews are a testament to our dedication and client satisfaction.
Biggest Achievements
Some of our biggest achievements include:
- Maintaining our status as a certified Google Partner for Ads and a Google Workspace Reseller for over 10 years.
- Accredited Living Wage Employer since 2022.
- Green Hosting Certified with our client websites running on renewable energy.
- Over 3,500 trees funded and 310 tonnes of CO2e emissions avoided to date through Ecologi.
- Continuing to work closely with clients – 10 of whom have been with us since the very start, helping them grow and evolving with them over the years.
- Supporting charities and communities, including B30 Foodbank, Birmingham Children’s Hospital and Acorns Hospice.
“When we started 17 years ago, the web was still a ‘maybe’ for many businesses. Today, we’re managing platforms turning over millions. Our secret hasn’t been shouting the loudest, but simply being the partner that shows up and delivers. We’ve always believed that if we focus on our clients’ success first, our own growth will naturally follow. Seventeen years in, that honesty remains a core value.” Anthony Chaffey, Managing Director
Notable Projects
Some of our recent notable projects include:
It has been a pleasure working with Ballyhoo over the last few months, creating our new website and brand guidelines. They have been professional and personable throughout, bringing energy, enthusiasm and lots of ideas to the table. They have listened and steered as appropriate, and provided a clear framework for developing the look, mechanics and content of the website. I am delighted with the end product, and how it reinforces the Studiogötz brand. Heart felt thanks to Ballyhoo! Volker Götz, StudioGötz
