Customer Testimonials

National Black Deaf Advocates (NBDA) had a newly elected president. One of his goals was to increase the organization’s visibility. Our website was the first order of business in increasing organization’s visibility. Our website was in an immense need for a new look to meet today’s standard of a professional website. While not yet attempted to research on the web design companies, one website caught our attention because of the way it was presented and displayed with magnificent view. We were convinced that whomever designed that website could make new NBDA website stand out amongst the crowd. We got in touch with DuBose Web Group and on the same day, Blake DuBose made himself available to listen to our needs and took notes. There are numerous things we were extremely impressed with DuBose team: they paid attention on the ways we want our website designed and follow-up with us regularly; they provided training for customized content management system; they provided us tips on how to maintain our website properly; and their responsive was always great in timely manner. We are an unique organization as we are a minority within a minority organization. Because we are a deaf and hard of hearing organization, the DuBose team showed  patience in terms of communication and it was effective. Not only did DuBose Web Group meet our expectations, their talents and design of our new website exceeded our expectations.  After our new website launched, we received a lot of positive comments and compliments. If anyone is seeking a professional website service, I will definitely recommend DuBose Web Group.

“We have really enjoyed working with DuBose Web Group in the development for our HEART website. The entire team showed genuine care and passion to make sure that every aspect of our site enhanced the HEART program and met our needs. They would listen to our opinions and try out new ideas to make the website easier for our users. After numerous changes, they always remained helpful and willing to listen to our concerns. We appreciated their professionalism and guidance throughout the entire web development process. We are very proud of our site and thank DuBose for their creation!  Not to mention, their team has adopted four HEART dogs while working on our website. Thanks for providing them such wonderful homes!”
     Donna Casamento, HEART of the Midlands

Having a degree in Graphic Communications and previously working in point-of-purchase advertising and marketing, I knew the importance of having a web presence that exudes the qualities that we all try so hard to embody with our businesses. Our company had already been on the web for many years and we had reaped the benefits of that investment many times over but as with any design element it needs to not look dated. It also needs to take advantage of the latest trends and leverage the latest technology that is establishing those trends. When we decided it was time to re-launch www.surveysc.com, we immediately “googled” all of the web design firms in the area to see how good they were at getting rankings. The next step was I evaluated each site for layout, grammar, and punctuation to establish a level of competence and professionalism. DuBose Web Group was tops on both. Our next step was to reach out via the website to see their responsiveness and pick their brains and after a brief conversation with Blake DuBose, I knew we had the right firm. DWG had a well laid out approach for our project and they’ve been proactive with ideas and responsive when we’ve brought ideas to them. We’re now not only reaching out using the search engines more effectively with their more effective organic SEO, but also using Twitter/Facebook and LinkedIn to expand our effectiveness. The new website shows well on everything out there now from the average desktop and laptop to smartphones and tablets. Foresight like that is what sets DWG apart from many competitors in my opinion.

After using a national company to create our last website, we knew that we had to change. We set out to find a local web design company that could give us a fresh, professional looking website to meet the growing and changing needs of our company. DuBose Web Group did just that, and exceeded all of our expectations. Using the suggestions they gave us, we are now able to leverage a variety of social media sites, integrate our back-end software systems, and keep the content fresh with new on our website. We now have more functionality and features than ever before, plus a great looking website that is easy to navigate. We are so pleased with the results that we have already started working on more projects together. We look forward to long and mutual beneficial relationship with DuBose Web Group.

"In early 2011, our company focused revamping our 8 year old website. After interviewing several web design companies, we made the decision to use DuBose Web Group. Immediately, I was impressed with the personal attention the owner, Blake DuBose, asserted to the project. Blake and his team worked tirelessly to take our vision and make it a reality from start to finish. They were able to design the entire site in-house and did an incredible job with the graphic design portion of our site. We couldn’t be more pleased with DuBose Web Group and the finished product. The response from our existing customer base and potential customers visiting our website has been overwhelmingly positive.
    Gary Gerstenberg, Valley Spring H2O   

"DuBose Web Group executed TRAIL's web design project flawlessly. Blake and his team have perfected an organized, step-by-step, development process that streamlined our website construction. With timely communication and a friendly, pro-active style, their customer service was second to none. I have and will continue to recommend them to family and friends for future projects.  Thank you DuBose Web Group for a fantastic job!"
    McLain Jones, TRAIL

"Choosing DuBose Web Group to get my first website running turned out to be a good decision. Blake and his staff took my ideas and developed a fantastic looking website that draws your attention and is very easy to navigate. I simply provided an outline of important content and some recent project photos. Their team has a very well organized process that kept the process moving along and resulted in a great product. I am very happy with the website and highly recommend DuBose Web Group."
    Kyle Whetstone, Palmetto State Glass, Columbia, SC

“When re-designing our website, we did not know where to begin. DuBose Web Group took the time to get to know us and our Association so they could develop a website which would best meet our needs. They provided us with a list of ideas for web pages and walked us step-by-step through the process of designing each page. Prior to the re-design, our website was hard to navigate and not user friendly. With the help of DuBose Web Group, our website is not only easy to navigate, but the design work was wonderful and exceeded our expectations. They assisted us with a re-design of our logo for the website and it is very modern and professional. The re-design of our website includes a news page, a contact page and a Facebook link, all of which help our members stay connected with our organization and the Deaf community. They have made some awesome suggestions, such as having our posts on the news page feed directly to our Facebook page. We did not know this was possible. Since the website has been implemented, DuBose Web Group has been very responsive to our requests for adjustments and changes. We have developed not only a business relationship, but also a friendship with DuBose Web Group.”
    Mike Bates, SC Association of the Deaf, Columbia, SC

“When we were ready to update our website, we interviewed several web design companies. From our first meeting, we were impressed with the professionalism and customer-driven service that Blake DuBose and his staff offered. They were interested in listening to and understanding our needs, goals, and budget. Throughout the development process, the DuBose team was creative, flexible, and accommodating. We are delighted with the result and will continue to rely on Blake DuBose and his group for our web design and development needs.”
    Edna Cox, RD, CSG, LD, CEO Carolina Nutrition Consultants, Inc., Lexington, SC

“After trying several web builders and attempting to do it myself with an online service, I turned to DuBose Web Group. It was the right decision for me. I could have saved at least a year's time had I turned to the DuBose Web Group first. Their process was organized but not intimidating. I simply stated my needs and shared my wish list and they came up with a way to present it all on the web. Their guidance and customer service was equally professional and responsive. They took my "vision" and emotional attachment to the project and created a great presence of the Al Barry Foundation on the Home Page as well as throughout the site. I highly recommend their services as well as their design and day-to-day availability - whether you are a business or a non-profit.”
     Liz Taylor-Barry, The Al Barry Foundation, Columbia, SC

“Our organization’s original website was designed by an associate who, “knew a guy who knew a guy who knew a guy” who could do our site for free. What we got was worth about as much as we paid for it…nothing! We engaged DuBose Web Group to provide us with a professional website design and implementation service and we have received much more than we had expected.

Blake DuBose and his staff have been proactive in guiding our thought processes for our site design and have been quickly reactive to any design changes that we needed. We quickly became aware of the fact that our site would not be a “cookie cutter” web design but would be custom configured to our organization's own specific needs. Our website is now a tool that has become a very important part of our communications and social networking efforts.

My job requires me to interact with donors and ministry supporters and it seems as though each conversation turns to what a great new website we have. They like it because it's easy to navigate, informative and reflects the professionalism that we are trying to project. I have recommended DuBose Web Group to other organizations like ours many times and will continue to do so in the future.”
     Dale Austin, US Field Director, El Shaddai Ministries International, Charlotte NC

“DuBose Web Group designed a remarkable website for the SC Cable Television Association. The association's website is useful, organized and professional and we consistently receive compliments on its extraordinary graphic design and usefulness. If your organization is in need of a fantastic website, I highly recommend DuBose Web Group.”
     Ray Sharpe, Executive Director, SC Cable Television Association, Columbia, SC

“DuBose Web Group was a pleasure to work with. They were creative, courteous, and punctual. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy the transition went with all of our changes. Our new website is far superior to our past site and very user friendly for all — those visiting it as well as those maintaining it on a regular basis. I would highly recommend them and plan to work with them on future endeavors.”
     Tammi Byrd, Health Promotion Specialists, Lexington, SC

“Our previous web site was a "cookie-cutter" site and looked like hundreds of other law firm sites on the web. DuBose Web Group took the time to meet with us and created a sophisticated, individualized, easy to use website that has benefited our firm. They assisted us in optimizing our presence on the web which has increased our business. Their staff has been very responsive to our needs and questions. I would highly recommend DuBose Web Group to anyone looking to create a website or to individualize an existing site.”
     Billy Walker, Walker & Morgan, LLC, Lexington, SC

“DuBose Web Group has transformed our website from a hard to navigate, visually unappealing site – to a product we are honored to put our name behind. Blake and his staff were very easy to work with and always responded in a timely fashion to ensure our deadlines were met. His customer service and willingness to work hand in hand with our staff, was top notch! I would highly recommend the DuBose Web Group to any organization looking to start or improve their website.”
     Cayci Banks, SC Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy, Columbia SC

“DuBose Web Group provided our organization with a fast, efficient, and highly effective web site thru a cost effective turn key operation. They were very receptive to phone calls and responded almost immediately to any questions or concerns. I couldn't be more pleased with the service we received from the DuBose Web Group and I highly recommend them.”
     Bruce D. Filler, Owner, Columbia Rehabilitation Clinic, Inc., Columbia, SC

“We have been in Internet sales now for over eleven years. It seems that as we look back over those years that there has been a roller coaster effect; up for a short period and then down for a longer period. The webmaster/company would be effective for a while and then be of no effect. We think that they would be ahead of the curve and then fall behind in technology and knowledge quickly and would get so busy they did not and could not keep up with the newest trends We would then change companies and great expense.....
         ......We have not found that to be the case with your company. You have consistently accomplished your goals that matched our goals. You have been quick to respond to our needs, giving us insight into your field of expertise as you progressed. Thank you for being a team player. You have allowed us to "be us" as you linked up "with" and "for" us.”
     Chuck and Dinah Keeton, Blythe Wood Works, Blythewood, SC

“Our website was designed as promised and delivered on time. DuBose Web Group was extremely responsive in answering phone calls and e-mails, knowledgeable about their products, and very customer service oriented. The web design team provided creative, helpful solutions while listening carefully to our needs. We were made completely aware of what our website would contain and there were no hidden fees or extras throughout the entire process. We highly recommend DuBose Web Group; a company that keeps their word!”
     Sharon Smith, JP Smith Builders, Camden, SC

“When we started the process of designing and creating our website, we were somewhat apprehensive and concerned that we would not find a web designer who was not only affordable, but was knowledgeable and customer oriented. With DuBose Web Group, all of those concerns melted away. We knew that we wanted to do something more than "an on-line brochure," but most of the web designers that we talked to did not seem to understand the difference. The folks at DWG, however, clearly understood what we were trying to accomplish, and have worked with us every step of the way as true partners whose objectives were the same as ours. We could not be happier with the quality of their work, the advice they gave us, the responsiveness and teamwork of their team or the overall value that they provided to us. Now, as we work to enhance our website and work to push higher in the search listings, their guidance continues to be invaluable. In short, these guys have it together, and WE are reaping the benefits!”
     Ancel Hamilton, President, BioTek Environmental, Columbia, SC

“Just a note to thank you for the great job you have done for us in designing the last 3 of our franchisee’s boat club websites. All are well organized, easy to navigate and, most importantly, are effective at generating sales. The last website you designed for the Adventure Boat Club is your best yet...Your service and speed have been impressive as well. We will be using you for all of our club’s websites in the foreseeable future. Keep up the good work.”
     Donald Spong, President, Nautical Toys International

“DuBose Web Group provides high-quality and timely web design and customer services. In addition to creating a user-friendly and professional website, they helped increase activity on our website and improved our ranking in popular search engines. I would highly recommend their services!”
     Stephanie Marshall, Research Associates, Columbia, SC

“Fast and professional service that exceeded our expectations. DuBose Web Group stepped up to the plate and delivered a home run for us in a pinch.”
     Steven Gardner, President, Medical Select, Columbia, SC

“Thank you for your work on our website over the last 12 months. Your prompt response to my requests for changes to the website allows me to stay focused on managing my small, but growing business. This focus allowed me to identify a niche market opportunity for Quarter 1 of 2008. You then optimized our position with the search engines to seize this opportunity and increase the unique hits to our site from 336 in Quarter 1 2007 to 1790 in Quarter 1 of 2008. As a result of this success, Search Engine Optimization by the DuBose Web Group is now a key component of our marketing budget.”
