EIGHT25MEDIA

EIGHT25MEDIA as a studio

EIGHT25MEDIA is a website agency by the numbers: web design at 50 percent, with digital strategy, UX/UI design and web development at 10 percent each. Ten industries share the book equally and mid-market companies are 65 percent of clients. Founded 2011 with 50 to 249 people in San Jose, it charges $100 - $149 / hr from a $25,000+ minimum and holds a 4.9 across 30 Clutch reviews. The most craft-relevant review describes typography and colour usage updated and on-brand imagery curated during a web redesign.

Who it fits

Hire EIGHT25MEDIA when you are a mid-market marketing team that wants a Bay Area agency to redesign, build and keep improving a corporate site with conversion work attached. It is not a branding studio; no identity line exists, and the brand work on record is applying and tidying an existing system.
