Headquarters Digital Marketing

Based in Miami, Florida, HQDM is a small SEO and PPC agency founded in 2019 by Zach DeLorenzo, who spent a decade working inside other agencies before starting his own. Matt Olderman joined as VP in 2023, bringing experience running self-funded e-commerce brands. The team works with a range of clients, from local brick-and-mortar businesses to larger companies such as Trustifi, Design Pickle, Raydiant, and Emerson, and describes its client base as spanning more than 250 brands. The agency's core offering is performance-based search marketing: clients pay based on results rather than a fixed retainer. Engagements begin with an assessment of the client's business goals, target audience, current site performance, competitor landscape, and keyword opportunities, from which a tailored SEO and PPC plan is built rather than a standardized template. HQDM states that clients typically see initial traction within 30–60 days and more substantial movement by 90 days, with longer timelines acknowledged for highly competitive niches. The agency emphasizes direct access to its leadership rather than routing clients through junior analysts, and positions transparency as part of its working method — including flagging site problems, underperforming strategies, or poor-fit engagements directly to clients. Services are limited to SEO and PPC, delivered by a team of 1-10 people.
