First impressions are everything! And that’s especially true when it comes to your agency website.

You’ve got an amazing team of workers, you’re providing first-class service, and you know you have unlimited potential for growth. However, all of this can fade into the background if your website sucks.

With so many amazing offerings out there, your promotional strategy needs to be top-notch if you’re going to bag lots of great clients. And this includes having a incredible website.

While creating something unique is what sets many agencies apart, it definitely doesn’t hurt to get a little inspiration. To get your creative juices flowing, we’ve got ten awesome agency websites that stand out from the crowd. Let’s get started!

Ready Set Rocket

The minimalist look of this brand consultant website lets the company’s work do all the talking. A monochromatic backdrop, lots of white space, and no-fuss font ensure your eyes are drawn to what really matters.

Scroll down to see autoplay videos of previous work or flip through cohesively-designed pages to delve into more about what the company is about.

Ready Set Rocket won Ad Age’s “Best Place to Work” award and it’s shouting it loud on its site in the hopes of attracting more talent!

Coulee Creative

Coulee Creative is a digital agency that claims to be able to stir emotion. And we love the light-hearted approach to their homepage header which features founder Jared Chelf showing off a range of facial expressions.

With the company’s diverse set of work on show alongside a bird theme, this website feels like it shouldn’t work — but it does!

Colour On Code

If you’re looking for an app developer, you’d no doubt be put off by a complex, less-than-intuitive website. Thankfully, UK company Colour On Code doesn’t disappoint.

Their seamlessly designed and easy-to navigate site exemplifies that they know exactly where it’s at when it comes to user-friendliness.

Bluestone98

Another UK company, Bluestone98, shows plenty of personality through its website. And that’s definitely not a bad thing considering it’s selling design and branding services.

From the random animal images to the “running blob” page load icon (it really needs to be seen to be explained!), this site is full of quirks that keep it intriguing yet professional.

Ever & Ever

Ever & Ever, a digital product and branding firm, showcases its talents in this engaging website. The cover image immediately stands out as unique and is easily explained by the words “Creatives & Engineers.”

Details such as side scrolling, slick transitions, and 3D mock-ups of the team, all help this give this agency website a serious edge.

Upperquad

The busy yet fun homepage of this creative studio’s site is an instant attention-grabber. The looped video represents the creative process and gives off an easy-going vibe.

Then as you scroll, abstract shapes and bright colors fly in to complement the portfolio content, and a similar pattern continues throughout the site. It’s actually really refreshing to see the About page and other pages given as much thought as the homepage. Kudos to you Upperquad!

Canvas United

There’s certainly a continuing trend for many agencies to go dark when it comes to overall aesthetic. While some sites can end up looking dreary, Canvas United keeps things interesting.

Neon green accents and not-quite-visible background videos are just a couple of the features that keep your interest piqued.

We also love that the team offer a fresh alternative to headshots and blurbs with a mixture of professional and casual images and impactful statements.

Isadora

So this site isn’t the actual official website for Isadora, but it’ll take you there… if you don’t get stuck that is. It’s a pretty simple gimmick, but an effective one if the time we’ve spent on it is anything to go by.

Since the agency specializes in connecting with audiences, this site shows what some animation features can do for engagement.

If you give it a go, the tickle is recommended… it has a super cute giggle. :)

BRAVO

Film agency BRAVO doesn’t bother with any fancy aesthetics on its site. Instead, it relies on its vast portfolio of work to fill the space. A black background and simple font means that nothing takes away from the videos they’ve created.

We love the up front and centre overlay menu, enabling instant access to whatever intrigues you.

Current Haus

App designer Current Haus takes a potentially risky approach by steering away from the popular sleek designs used by many of its competitors. Instead, its feature image is a progression of the design process from rough sketch to final product.

While it might seem a little simplistic, it’s a great way to get clients envisioning the agency working on their projects.

As you can see from this list, the possibilities are virtually endless. Now take a deep breath and go design a kickass site that showcases exactly what you’re great at!
