Tell us what you’re working on.

One team

Digital marketing, also called internet marketing, is everything that brings customers to you online. That includes Google search, Google Maps, paid ads, and AI tools like ChatGPT.

We plan it all together, so each piece supports the others. Whether your goal is calls, online sales, donations, or sign-ups, we track what matters to you. You work directly with the people doing the work, not a salesperson.

FAQ

What does digital marketing include?

Everything that brings customers to you online: Google rankings (SEO), AI search (AEO), your Google Business Profile, Google search ads, Local Services Ads, your website and the tracking that ties it together. Most businesses don’t need all of it at once. We recommend what fits.

Is internet marketing the same as digital marketing?

Yes. People use the terms interchangeably. Both mean marketing your business online, through search, maps, ads, AI tools and your website.

How much does digital marketing cost?

It depends on which services you need and your ad budget. After a short call we’ll recommend a plan with a clear monthly price. Ad spend is paid directly to Google and kept separate, so you always see what goes where.

How long before I see results?

Google search ads and Local Services Ads can bring in calls within days of launch. SEO and AI search build over time, usually showing real movement within a few months and growing from there.

Do you only work with Bakersfield businesses?

No. Most of our clients are in Bakersfield, but we work with businesses across California.

What makes Willis & Williams different from other Bakersfield marketing agencies?

We’re a local studio that has been in Bakersfield since 1979, and we handle design and marketing under one roof. There are no salespeople or account managers in between, so you work directly with the people doing the work.

Do you work with nonprofits and online stores?

Yes. Not every business measures success in phone calls. We set goals around what matters to you, whether that’s donations, online sales, event sign-ups, or booked appointments.

Can you work with my existing website?

Yes. We can improve the site you have, or design a new one if your current site is holding you back. We’ll tell you honestly which makes more sense.

Is Google Business Profile management included?

Usually, yes. Your Google Business Profile is a big part of local SEO, so we typically include it in our SEO work.
