Hot Lava Media

Based in Creve Coeur, Missouri, with an address on Craig Road in St. Louis, Hot Lava Media is a small team (1-10 people) working with small to medium-sized businesses. The agency positions itself as an alternative to both large marketing firms and inexperienced freelancers, describing its approach as nimble and geared toward custom work rather than template-based solutions. Its stated goal is to produce websites, email marketing, and print materials that have a direct, positive impact on a client's business rather than generic output. The agency's service list spans web design and development, including CMS websites, e-commerce, mobile and responsive builds, hosting and domains, and business email setup, alongside website maintenance and social networking support. On the search side, it describes an approach that works both on-site and off-site to improve and sustain search engine rankings. Print and branding services cover logo design, brand development, business cards, brochures, postcards, letterhead, direct mailers, and menu design. Media production offerings include voice-overs, website audio, on-hold advertising, podcast production, HTML5 audio and video, animation, photography, and PowerPoint development. Email marketing and newsletters are described as designed, titled, and linked with the aim of keeping clients engaged and brands visible. The website portfolio references examples such as a website redesign project and print design work for a wellness-focused client.
