Mercado Monkey is a bilingual digital agency based in Torreón, Mexico that works with Houston businesses on SEO, Web development, Digital marketing, Automation — remotely, in your time zone, since 2017.
Houston's economy runs on energy, the Port of Houston and the Texas Medical Center, and around those anchors sits a dense layer of contractors, suppliers, clinics and family-owned firms competing for the same customers. Many of them rely on referrals and a website that hasn't been touched in years. We are a 14-person agency in Torreón, Mexico, working with Houston companies that want a site that actually produces calls, a Google Business Profile that ranks beyond their own street, and ad spend tied to jobs they close.
A large share of Houston's homeowners, workers and small business owners prefer Spanish, and most local agencies either ignore that market or hand it to a translation plugin. Our team writes natively in both languages, so your Spanish pages read like they were written for Gulfton or Pasadena, not run through software. Because we work nearshore, you pay well below what a Houston agency bills for the same scope, while still meeting on your schedule: we share Central Time most of the year and are one hour behind in summer.
Hispanic market. More than 40% of Houston residents are Hispanic, mostly of Mexican and Central American heritage, and in areas like Gulfton, the East End and Pasadena Spanish is the everyday language of business.

Winning local customers in Houston comes down to the Google map pack and Local Services Ads, especially in roofing, HVAC, plumbing and remodeling, where bids spike after every major storm. Reviews on Google and Yelp carry real weight, and Nextdoor shapes reputation in suburbs like Sugar Land and Pearland. Spanish-language searches are common and often less contested, so a well-built Spanish section can bring in leads your competitors aren't even bidding on.
We run projects remotely over video calls during Houston business hours. From November to March our clocks match; during US daylight saving time we are one hour behind, which still leaves the full working day overlapping. You're invoiced in US dollars, contracts are available in English or Spanish, and every account we set up, from domain to ad platforms, stays in your company's name. Content is written in both languages from the first draft.
