About the Company / No, Seriously...

Ephricon Web Marketing was founded by Jon Payne in early 2003 as the formalization of his consulting practice.  In just three short years, Ephricon has developed a reputation as one of the top search marketing firms in Maryland, as well as throughout the Mid-Atlantic United States.

Member SEO Consultants DirectoryWe're a small firm, and darn proud of it!  Our team believes in delivering top-notch results with outstanding personal service.  That's not just a company line either - if we don't think we'll be able to absolutely knock your socks off than we won't take the project. 

In fact, as of July 2006 we have put a pause on accepting new projects.  Why?  We're swamped!  Our clients have sung our praises and we're maxed-out.  We'd much prefer to refer you to one of our partners than simply take your money and not be able to give you the full time and attention your project deserves.  (blatant jab)

Go ahead and take a look at the "about the company" or "about us" page of those other internet marketing or SEO firms you're considering.  Does the page say something like this:

ABC Company is made up of a team of talented individuals with experience in marketing, web development, sales...

Yuck!  We hate that!  Does it mention who they are or just refer to them as a "team" of "talented professionals"?  Your reputation is your best selling point - if they choose to remain vague about that  than you might ask why.  Want a name and face for us?  Read on...

Our small size is our strength.  We're nimble.  We're fast.  We're flat-out better at what we do.  We just aren't cheap.  We do provide an excellent value though. Any firm who says they've got the best quality, the best service, the most knowledgeable team, the fastest timelines and the cheapest rate is probably not being completely honest.  We look to make a two-way, long-term commitment to and with our clients.
