Hire a local SEO agency

Hiring a local SEO agency? Ask these questions first.

If this is your first time hiring for SEO, it is hard to tell a solid agency from one selling automated reports. Use the checklist below with any agency, including us. A good partner explains what they will do each month, keeps your accounts in your name, avoids promises about rankings, and reports enquiries rather than vanity numbers.

Who it's for: Local service businesses, clinics and professional firms hiring an SEO agency for the first time.

All prices are in USD, before any applicable taxes. Too expensive? We can always cater the offering to your budget, tell us what you can spend and we'll propose a scope that fits. Extra locations, major redevelopment and third-party costs are quoted separately. Social media and paid ads are not included. Rankings, traffic and leads are not guaranteed; meaningful SEO progress usually takes several months.

Our working standards

Truthful claims only

We publish only services, credentials, reviews and results you can verify. No invented case studies, fake offices, purchased reviews or paid ranking links.

You keep ownership

Your website, domain, Google Business Profile, analytics and content stay in your accounts. Every change is documented.

No ranking guarantees

SEO takes sustained work and results vary by market. We do not guarantee rankings, leads or revenue.

Questions

How much should local SEO cost?

Our plans start at $1,500 a month. New brands get 50% off the first 3 months. Otherwise share your budget and we will suggest an honest scope.

Should I hire a local agency or a remote one?

Location matters less than knowledge of your market and clear reporting. We work remotely and do not claim a local office.

Is guaranteed page one a red flag?

Yes. Google states that no one can guarantee a top ranking.

Can I try before committing?
