EARNED RECOGNITION

OUR

STORY

starts more than a decade ago

In 2013, our co-founders, Faton and Granit, founded Manaferra with a vision to help businesses utilize digital marketing as a source of vitamin for growth (hence, Manaferra, the Albanian name for “the blackberry” fruit, symbolizing growth and vitality).

As we served different industries with different digital marketing services, we recognized the transformative role higher education plays in changing lives for the better. This led us to specialize exclusively in serving colleges and universities, focusing on helping them reach their future students during their college search process.

Today, Manaferra is a global agency powered by a fully remote team distributed across the US and Europe. We are honored to collaborate with institutions that are not only centers of learning but also catalysts for innovation and societal progress. 

We are more than a search marketing agency; we are dedicated partners committed to advancing the mission of higher education. 

Not Just Another

Higher Ed Marketing Agency

Unlike other generalist higher ed marketing agencies that claim to do everything, we only do what we are the best at, and that is Search Marketing for Higher Education.

We understand students’ search behavior, their decision-making process, and how to best reach them in all relevant search platforms, not just Google.

Specialized in
Higher Education SEO

Higher Ed is not just one of the industries we serve, is the ONLY ONE. You’ll benefit from our deep understanding of prospective students’ search behaviors and program-specific SEO opportunities.

Beyond Google

Our Omnichannel SEO approach ensures your programs are visible wherever prospective students search, not just on Google, giving you broader exposure and better results.

Enrollment-driven

We measure our success just like you do it; with enrollments, not traffic! We provide detailed reporting that directly connect SEO efforts with student applications and enrollments, simplifying ROI reporting and decision-making.

AI-first

We proactively optimize your programs to rank highly in AI-driven search engines and chatbots, positioning your institution as a leader in emerging student recruitment channels.

Don't take our word for it!

“As someone who has worked with a lot of agencies, Manaferra is truly outstanding in the way they communicate and deliver results.”
