A Hertfordshire PR and marketing company has been recognised as one of the UK’s leading 15 digital agencies.

Feedback from clients has placed Strand PR as the 14th-ranked agency on a top-50 list compiled by The Drum, the world’s third biggest marketing website.

The Barkway agency provides digital services, including managing social media platforms and online advertising, for a range of businesses and organisations.

One of Strand’s clients, the Fox and Duck public house in Therfield, was recently awarded the Digital Pub of the Year award for its “innovative use of engaging social media” at a leading industry awards ceremony organised by Greene King.

Miss Pearce said: “As we prepare to celebrate 10 years in business, clients have and will always remain at the heart of everything we do. We have an incredible team here at Strand who effortlessly go the extra mile to deliver results.

“To be recognised as one of the UK’s best digital agencies, on the basis of client feedback, is tremendously rewarding.”

The Drum polled hundreds of advertisers up and down the country and asked them to rate their agencies on a range of measures including value for money, effectiveness, creative output, client service and more. The top-50 list features the agencies that scored the highest across the board.

Strand PR was shortlisted in six categories in The Drum’s annual awards last year.
