Clutch, the leading B2B ratings platform, ranked KREAKTIVE (then Digital Marketing Services) #1 in four freelance categories: Web Design, WordPress Design, Digital Strategy, and SEO in Colorado.

TL;DR Too Long; Didn't Read

Clutch ranked KREAKTIVE #1 in four freelance categories: Web Design, WordPress Design, Digital Strategy, and SEO in Colorado. Unlike auto-generated directory badges, Clutch verifies every review by calling clients directly.

I don’t usually write posts about awards. Most “awards” in this industry are auto-generated badges from directories that hand them out for filling in a profile. I’ve never found that worth talking about.

This one is different.

What Clutch Actually Is

Clutch is the leading B2B ratings and reviews platform. What makes them different from UpCity, Expertise, DesignRush, and the rest: they verify every single review by calling the client directly.

Not a form submission. Not a star rating anyone can fake. An actual phone call where a Clutch analyst confirms the project scope, the budget, and the results. If the review doesn’t check out, it doesn’t get published.

That verification process is why Clutch rankings carry weight in the B2B space.

The 4 #1 Rankings

As of March 2026, Clutch ranks KREAKTIVE (then Digital Marketing Services) #1 in four freelance categories:

  1. #1 Top Freelance Web Designer (global)
  2. #1 Top Freelancer WordPress Designer (global)
  3. #1 Top Freelance Digital Strategy Expert (global)
  4. #1 Top Freelancer SEO in Colorado (state)

Update (Oct 2026): still #1 for Digital Strategy; #2 to #4 in the other three categories.

Why This Matters for You

If you’re evaluating agencies or freelancers, Clutch rankings tell you something useful: the clients who actually paid for the work were satisfied enough to verify it on a phone call.

That’s a higher bar than most directories set. It’s also why I offer a 30-Day Proof Period. Before you pay a cent, I put in writing exactly what I’ll ship in 30 days. If I don’t ship every item on that list, you get your first month back. Between verified Clutch reviews and a written list of deliverables, the risk sits with me, not you.

What I Actually Do

The four categories map to the core services I offer:

  • Web Design: Custom sites built for speed (96-100 PageSpeed scores), conversions, and SEO from day one. No templates, no WordPress themes.
  • SEO: Get found when people search for what you sell. I measure against your launch baseline and the leads that come in, not vanity metrics.
  • Digital Strategy: The plan that connects your website, search visibility, and brand into something that generates revenue.
  • WordPress Development: For businesses that need WordPress specifically, built right.
