Practical Small Business Resources for Building a Better Website
Creative, strategic, and a little obsessed With great design
Ever feel like your business deserves more than just another cookie-cutter website or marketing campaign? We do, too.
We’re the agency you call when “just okay” isn’t cutting it. At Cider House, we specialize in custom web design, branding, and digital marketing that’s built to connect and convert. Every project is a blend of story and strategy—crafted to stand out, built to grow with you.
The moment It all started
We're suckers for a good story. Since we'll be wanting to hear yours, we think it's only fair that you hear ours.
Founded in 2003 in Los Angeles and rebranded as Cider House Media in 2013 after relocating to Western Massachusetts, we are a digital agency with deep roots in commercial production, advertising, and digital design. Our mission has always been to help small businesses, solopreneurs, and non-profits create compelling brands and connect authentically with their audiences.
As a full-service agency, we’re storytellers who specialize in web design, SEO, branding, and digital marketing—delivering solutions that are both impactful and unique, whether refreshing an identity or building something new.
Why We’re Different
Most agencies focus on flashy designs and empty metrics. Not us. We believe great marketing doesn’t just sell—it inspires, connects, and tells a story worth hearing.
Here’s how we make it happen:
- Clarity First: We uncover the heart of your business, distill it into clear messaging, and build everything else around that foundation.
- Tailored Strategies: No two businesses are the same, so why should your marketing be? We craft strategies as unique as your goals.
- Real Results: Whether it’s more leads, more sales, or a stronger connection with your community, we measure success the same way you do—by the impact it makes.
The Work We Do
Think of us as your secret weapon for all things digital:
- Web Design That Works: Beautiful, functional WordPress websites that don’t just look good—they perform.
- Search Engine Optimization (SEO): We optimize your website to rank higher, attract the right traffic, and convert visitors into loyal customers.
- Marketing That Matters: From email campaigns to social media strategies, we help your brand connect and engage with your audience.
- Branding With Heart: Your story is unique, and we’ll help you tell it through visuals, voice, and design that resonate.
The Cider House Values
At Cider House Media, everything we do is guided by the values we live and breathe every day:
- Community First: We believe in lifting others up. Supporting local businesses and non-profits is at the core of who we are. When you succeed, our community thrives.
- Innovation: The digital world changes fast, and we’re here to keep you ahead of the curve. Staying curious and creative fuels everything we do.
- Integrity: We’re honest, transparent, and committed to doing the right thing—always. Your trust means everything to us.
These aren’t just words on a page—they’re promises we make to every client we work with.
