Quick answer
Expertise.com named BlakSheep Creative one of the top web design firms in Baton Rouge for the second consecutive year, after ranking it among the top advertising agencies in the city the year before. Expertise screens active firms in a category and area, verifies contact and license data, then scores reputation, qualifications, experience, engagement, and professionalism before a manual review picks the final list.
Key takeaways
- Expertise.com ranked BlakSheep Creative among Baton Rouge's top web design firms two years in a row.
- The prior year, Expertise also listed BlakSheep Creative among the top advertising agencies in Baton Rouge.
- Expertise grades firms on reputation, qualifications, experience, engagement, and professionalism.
- Candidates are verified for active business status and good standing before scoring.
- A manual review by Expertise's team confirms each company on the final list.
- BlakSheep Creative offers web design, branding, graphic design, digital marketing, and video production.
Baton Rouge has more web design shops than most business owners can tell apart, and many of them are one-person operations that vanish within a year. A third-party list like Expertise.com, which checks that a firm is licensed, in good standing, and still answering the phone, is one of the few filters a Livingston Parish business owner has before signing a contract.
That’s right! BlakSheep Creative has once again been named one of the top web design firms in Baton Rouge by Expertise.com. We are honored to receive this recognition and proud to be considered one of the best in our field.
