Our Story: Becoming Ark Digital Agency

Why do we exist? Why did we go to the effort of setting up Ark Digital Agency? Honestly? We were tired. We were tired of how complicated and expensive branding and marketing services were for entrepreneurs and small businesses. These essential services became inaccessible or would often be mis-sold.

We began in 2015 as Ark Web Hosting. It was the brainchild of two individuals who were frustrated with the complicated nature of website hosting. Both individuals were offering similar services but decided in working together, they could create a better experience for their customers focused on creativity, customer service and results. Honesty, good value, and helpful advice were our foundations, right from the very start.

Within a few months, things snowballed. The number of clients we were supporting grew beyond what was manageable, and so did the variety of their requests. Whilst we were only offering website hosting, we received calls to assist with creating new websites. Not long after, we founded Ark Web; a complete, all-encompassing approach to websites: hosting, creating and maintaining.

Having evolved into Ark Web at the beginning of 2018, we enjoyed steady growth mainly through word-of-mouth. We weren't actively marketing ourselves, and we weren't interested in doing so either as we were still finding our feet. We realised pretty quickly we needed new standard operating procedures (SOPs) and several new team members. So we began putting in place the foundations of a healthy company.

However, as we reached the end of 2018, it became evident that our evolution wasn't complete. Again, service requests that we weren't able to fulfil became the new norm. After detailed discussions with our leadership team and business partners, we decided to evolve into Ark Digital Agency.

Our mission has never changed, though. We still wanted to provide easy-to-understand digital services, and we were still passionate about telling memorable stories that can change the world. We were now able to do so in a greater capacity.

We exist to provide small businesses with 'that' chance to reimagine and reinvent their digital world; to grow their business sales and achieve their goals. Our work for various leading brands is recognised for driving innovation and accelerating business performance.

We're a digital agency with a team of creatively-led individuals, each with a passion to craft memorable experiences for you and your customers.
