How We Chose the Best SEO Companies

For small businesses looking to gain a new and improved online presence that places them at the top of a potential customer's keyword search, employing the services of a professional SEO firm may be their best bet. Fortunately, there are a multitude of firms specializing in a wide array of services, including search engine optimization, web design and email marketing. To help small businesses find the best SEO firm for their particular niches, budgets and needs, we evaluated the top firms on what matters most: service lines, size, and industry focus.

Multiple Service Lines

Because every business has unique needs that can change over time, it's important that SEO firms offer a range of service lines to accommodate their clients where they are presently and as they grow. In this list, we've included SEO firms with service lines that include pay-per-click, link building, website design, public relations, and more.

Size of Firm

Whether large or small, every SEO firm has advantages and disadvantages. Depending on their needs and circumstances, a small business may prefer to work with a small team that offers highly personalized services or a large firm that has lower prices and a more systematized approach. To give small businesses an idea of how size may play a part in their experience working with a given firm, we included businesses of all sizes in our list.

Industry Focus

To cover as many small business needs as possible, we also selected firms that cover a wide range of industries. Small businesses selecting an SEO firm to up their internet game may want to pay special attention to the industries some firms may specialize in to ensure the firm has knowledge of and experience in their particular market.

What Are SEO Firms?

SEO stands for search engine optimization, a digital marketing strategy that helps websites appear near the top of a search result so consumers and potential customers can easily find and visit a company’s page. SEO firms specialize in this strategy to help their clients’ websites rank as high as possible on search engines such as Google, Bing, and Yahoo.

Often, when looking for a service or product, instead of searching for a specific company name, consumers will type words related to what they’re looking for in a search engine such as Google. These keywords are what SEO firms use to help companies improve their search engine rankings. Additional tactics they may use to help a company improve its ranking and online brand include placing links throughout the internet that lead back to the company’s website, developing original content, managing pay-per-click advertisements and designing new websites or social media pages.

Benefits of SEO Firms

When a small business hires an SEO firm, they may reap a wealth of intentional and even unanticipated benefits. A successful SEO campaign can result in improved search engine rankings that drive new, organic traffic to a company’s website. This new traffic, especially if combined with website design services and the right content and landing pages, can lead to many conversions, meaning a growing number of paying customers and an increase in revenue.

Because SEO firms specialize in online marketing and branding, many offer public relations and brand management services that improve a brand’s reputation across social media pages, search results, and even third-party websites that contain online reviews. Additionally, SEO firms can help companies specifically target the right customers for their brands using data such as demographics, location, and buying habits. Strategies such as email marketing and social media campaigns can deepen customer engagement and even use automation to save companies time while still increasing website traffic and profits.

What to Look for in an SEO Firm

When you’re looking for the right SEO firm for your small business, you’ll likely want to find one that has experience working with your industry and offers multiple service lines and comprehensive strategies that meet your company’s unique needs.

Depending on your industry and online branding, you may want to look for an SEO firm that:

Offers multiple SEO strategies such as local and international SEO
Provides specific eCommerce strategies including Amazon SEO
Has pay-per-click management experience across a variety of popular sites
Is experienced in social media marketing
Offers brand management services with a transparent, systematized approach
Provides detailed and easily accessible reporting to keep its clients up-to-date on exactly how their money is being spent and the progress being made
Takes the time to understand and research your company and competition to develop the best keywords
Focuses on conversions and delivering a high ROI
Offers services at a price that fits your budget
Doesn’t require overly long contracts

The Cost of SEO Firms

Depending on factors such as where the firm is based, its size and level of experience, the cost of SEO firms can vary significantly. Many firms charge an hourly rate, and prices can range from below $25 an hour to more than $300 an hour. Typically, firms that charge as low as $25 an hour are based outside of the United States, such as the several on our list headquartered in India.

Most often, firms do not post their prices directly on their website and require potential clients to call or email them for a consultation. Typically, however, this includes an introduction to their services such as a free website audit to show how they believe the company’s rankings could improve.

Many firms with high-quality, comprehensive strategies or exceptional levels of expertise in certain industries may charge anywhere from $100-$200 an hour. Some may offer month-to-month or longer term contracts, and some may also price their services in packages that include a specific number of keywords or content creation services per month.
