Customer reputation
SU Web Agency wins on verified review volume.
Both agencies held a 5.0 Google rating in the dated evidence set. SU Web Agency had 19 reviews compared with Cedar City Web Design’s six, so it receives the stronger reputation score. The smaller sample is treated as greater uncertainty, not as a negative customer judgment.
Portfolio and local history
SU Web Agency wins for public portfolio depth and documented longevity.
SU Web Agency says it has served small businesses since 2010 and publishes a long list of named Southern Utah projects. Cedar City Web Design publishes a more concentrated owner-led portfolio and project narratives. Buyers should inspect relevant live sites and ask what each provider personally designed, developed, wrote, hosted, and optimized.
Platform and technical model
Neither model is universally better: SU Web Agency is clearer for managed WordPress, while Cedar City Web Design wins for owner-direct custom code.
SU Web Agency openly uses WordPress, Divi, and managed hosting. Cedar City Web Design explicitly positions itself around hand-coded sites, direct developer access, and client ownership. Choose based on who will maintain the system, the editing experience required, portability, integrations, and total recurring cost.
Pricing transparency
Both publish useful prices, but for different offers.
SU Web Agency gives itemized starting packages: $1,750 starter, $3,250 premium, and $4,500 ecommerce. Cedar City Web Design supplies broader project ranges—$2,500–$5,000 basic and $5,000–$15,000+ complex—plus subscriptions from $175/month. These numbers are not directly interchangeable; compare deliverables and ongoing obligations.
Who is better for SEO?
Cedar City Web Design has the more technical specialist positioning; SU Web Agency has the clearer recurring price anchor.
Cedar City Web Design publishes owner-direct local and technical SEO services alongside custom development. SU Web Agency publishes SEO starting at $600/month and an ongoing agency model. Ask both for a baseline, specific monthly deliverables, account ownership, content responsibilities, and reporting examples.

SU Web Agency
