I've worked with Expect Best for the past few years and found them to be communicative, responsive and aware of what Locators has to offer. They've helped with the development of our initial site rebuild and updated its design and functionality ever since. Their SEO campaign has also increased our traffic and given us higher rankings on Google. Due to this, we've held weekly meetings this year as they've engaged in a fully-fledged digital marketing campaign - including our social media marketing. For that reason, I commend their strong work ethic and look forward to our continuing campaigns.

I approached Alex from Expect Best to give me a quote to design our new website for us a few weeks ago now. I totally expected his quote to be out of our price range but to my surprise it was very reasonable indeed. The project to design our new site started very soon after we accepted the quote and is not complete :-). These guys are absolutely fantastic at what they do, very friendly, very professional and their communication is second to none. I cannot recommend these guys highly enough, if you are looking to get a new website designed or need any help with you social media marketing, give

I run a small business by myself teaching Physio led Pilates classes in Poole and Broadstone. Over the lockdowns it became clear I needed a website to bring in more clients but I didn't have the time or skills to make it. Expect Best were recommended by a local colleague and I have been really pleased with the results. I now have a new logo, a new professional looking website with photos from their photo shoot and a new design for my business cards. I am getting daily new enquiries. I highly recommend them. Thank you Alex, Josh and Ethan. Lucy Purrier

Great to work with Alex and the team at ExpectBest, very responsive to the changing vision of all our IT needs. We have recently been working with Josh for our Facebook/Instagram posting, joining up our social media and website and improving the content which has produced very good results. Very good communication and creative input.

Top service from these guys from start to finish with our new site. Very responsive with any amendments we needed to make in our final stages of development before going live. Very happy with our end result. Also amazing that they handle everything from design to marketing. Now working with them on a new marketing strategy for the new site. Highly recommended!

Highly recommend this company. After working with the team for over 3 months and rolling out 3 new websites I can honestly say it's been one of the nicest and easiest agency experiences I've ever had. Super friendly and accommodating with a very high standard of work - what more could you ask for. A huge thanks to all, without doubt will use again for other digital services when required.
