The Hedgehog Backstory
In 2002, Alan Spurgeon started an email marketing agency called TwelveHorses. Their focus was on technology, working with corporate clients such as LA Fitness, Reed, Schroders and Tesco’s. As a technology provider, input into the campaign strategies was minimal. So Alan quenched his creative thirst by creating a web design and SEO agency side project. By 2009, with a small customer base, he founded Hedgehog.
Hedgehog grew by providing forward thinking local businesses a route into digital. Working within the SME sector felt natural to Alan, who took his first entrepreneurial step aged 12, running local disco’s for school children. Working with SMEs gave him the freedom to explore his creativity and use his expertise with digital.
In 2016, Hedgehog opened a second office in Hayle, Cornwall. A year later, Hedgehog’s third base was established. This time in Sao Paulo Brazil, home of Hedgehog’s SEO guru, Felipe Bazon.
No longer a web design and SEO agency, Hedgehog specialise in driving business online, be it with SEO, content or a website, with a laser focused approach.
Today more than ever, Hedgehog uses its decades of experience and expertise to help businesses drive business online.
