Frequently asked questions

Do agencies need a client portal?

Not always, but once you have more than a handful of clients, a portal cuts status emails, speeds up approvals and makes your service feel more professional.

Can clients see live results?

With some portals. SEO Runway and AgencyAnalytics show live marketing data; general portals usually show files and links.

Should the portal be on my own domain?

If possible. A custom domain and your branding make the portal feel like part of your agency.
