Challenge

A concrete company in Indiana came to me looking to dominate their entire surrounding area. They were losing in many small cities and tows to “exact match” named businesses. They needed to claim those areas as the #1 spot.

Solution

Implementing a strong technical website, proper on page SEO, geo relevant service pages for each service area, very high quality backlinks (30+ DA, 30k+ monthly organic traffic), and high quality manual directory listings was what we did to get these insane results.

Result

Fast forward to today, this company (Crystal Creek Concrete) is ranking #1 or 2, with just 1 GBP… across 2847 square miles. Their phone is constantly ringing and they’re growing at an incredible rate.

A local towing company in Long Island, NY was struggling with their Google performance. They weren't getting as many calls as they wanted, and wanted to expand their reach into other areas in the counties they services.

Solution

We took over there SEO and GBP efforts. We optimized their GBP, remade their website with proper technical SEO, conducted an in depth competitor analysis, conducted keyword analysis and on-page SEO optimized content for those words, and finally built strong relevant citations ad backlinks. We implemented a completely tailored approach to not only their current market, but the new cities and towns they wanted to target for rankings.

Result

We started working with them in October. They were averaging 70-75 calls from GBP per month over the past 6 months. In December, they had 130 calls, which accounted for an additional $30,000 in additional revenue. January is on track to be at 120 calls! This client has made an ROI of over 20x !

What Is an SEO Agency in Michigan?

An SEO agency in Michigan provides search engine optimization services that help companies or brands in the state build their online presence and reach their target audience on a wider scale. These services may include targeted keyword research, content marketing, content creation, link building, local SEO, page speed optimization, and on-page SEO.

These companies have the appropriate tools and experience to build organic traffic from Michigan and drive more business to your website. Since they are Michigan-based, they understand what strategies work best for different industries and businesses in the state.

With a good SEO strategy, your brand will get more online visibility, leading to higher search engine rankings and increased website traffic, eventually generating sales. This will also save you money, as maintaining an in-house SEO team will cost more.

What Do SEO Companies in Michigan Do?

SEO companies in Michigan help businesses create SEO strategies to boost their online visibility, rank highly on search engines, and generate online sales. They also run audits, keyword research, competitor analysis, on-page optimization, off-page optimization, content marketing, technical SEO, local SEO, mobile SEO, and reporting and analysis.

  • Audits:

    Michigan SEO companies conduct SEO website audits, content audits, backlink audits, and technical website audits. SEO audits analyze your website’s content structure and performance and evaluate algorithms to improve your site’s rankings. A successful SEO audit will ensure enhanced website visibility in Michigan, increased conversions and revenue, and higher website performance.
  • Keyword research:

    Agencies identify relevant keywords to create content for your website and increase its ranking on search engine result pages (SERPs).
  • Competitor analysis:

    SEO agencies research your competitor's SEO strategies to find their strengths and weaknesses and use them to build an even better plan. This allows you to see who your online competitors are, decide what kinds of unique content to create, and boost your online presence. This helps you outrank your competitors and improve your ranking.
  • On-page optimization:

    This refers to the steps you take within your website to improve its content relevance and user experience.
  • Off-page optimization:

    This refers to your actions outside your website to improve its ranking on search engines. This could include link building, forum discussion, emails, tracking inbound links, and guest blogging.
  • Content marketing:

    This SEO strategy attracts, engages, and retains your target audience. It involves creating relevant and consistent articles, videos, ebooks, and other digital content.
  • Technical SEO:

    This involves improving your website's technical aspects to ensure it ranks highly.
  • Local SEO:

    This is especially important if your target audience is in your surrounding areas. It consists in refining your website to improve its visibility, traffic, and awareness locally and regionally.
  • Mobile SEO:

    This involves improving your website to rank higher on search engines of mobile devices.
  • Reporting and analysis:

    This is crucial for getting an in-depth insight into your website’s search engine performance. Reports include insights, actions, strategy, and data in a single document, showing how customers and prospective customers engage with your content.

Why Should I Hire a Michigan SEO Company?

There are many reasons to hire a Michigan SEO company.

First, they help you save time and money. Having your in-house SEO team has its perks but can be more expensive to maintain, depending on your company’s needs. An SEO agency costs less as they allocate only a fraction of their time to your company but still offer a full team and resources. Since the agency focuses on your website SEO, you can allocate time for other important tasks.

Next, hiring a search engine optimization agency in Michigan gives you access to local SEO specialists— web developers, SEO content writers, and other professionals—who focus solely on improving online brand visibility for the Michigan market. Since the SEO industry is constantly evolving, your business success depends on being able to keep up with these trends. A local SEO agency can give you that peace of mind.

Additionally, SEO companies have experience working with brands like yours and understand which SEO strategies will work best in your industry and the Michigan market. This means they already know what to avoid and what will drive results.

Finally, Michigan SEO companies have access to best-in-class SEO and marketing tools. These specialist tools may be costly for your brand, but an SEO agency can afford to offer multiple tools to their clients.

Taken together, these benefits add up to better visibility, traffic, and revenue for your team as you work with SEO experts with the best SEO tools.

How Do I Choose the Best SEO Agency for My Business?

The first step in choosing the best SEO agency for your business is to identify your resources and your needs. Determine your goal and what you intend to achieve with SEO. Consider your budget, the services you need, and the level of expertise of the agency you want to work with. Then follow these steps:

  • Check the Semrush ranking:

    Semrush lists the top 40 Michigan SEO agencies. This list gives you a wide range of qualified options to choose from. So, regardless of your goals and requirements, you can find a company that best suits your brand.
  • Read Google reviews:

    If the agency has Google reviews, it will tell you how satisfied their clients are with their business. A company with good ratings has a higher chance of fulfilling your SEO needs than one with low ratings.
  • Find a local agency:

    Many companies offer search engine optimization in Michigan, so you may want to consider an agency that best suits your location. A local agency will know the agency well and will be easier to meet with in person.
  • Visit each agency’s website:

    Study the specifics of the services they offer, how they operate, their years of experience, and their clientele. This will give you further insight into the company and if its mission and vision align with your goals.
  • Read success stories and reviews:

    Success stories point out the company's positive aspects, values, progress over time, and impact on the industry. They show you how the agency was able to help companies like yours. Pay attention to the details of reviews, such as what past clients were happy or unhappy with. You don’t want to work with a company that has dissatisfied past clients.
  • Contact the agency:

    Once you’ve determined which company you want to work with, you can send a request to the agency. Alternatively, you can simply click “Get Matched”, and we will find the best agency for you. Just fill out a form telling us your requirements and goals, and we will connect you with the right agencies. The most suitable agencies will get your brief and contact you within two days.

Congratulations, you’re now one step further to achieving your SEO dreams.

What Red Flags Should I Watch Out for When Hiring a Michigan SEO Company?

There are certain red flags to look out for when searching for the best search engine optimization company in Michigan to work with. These red flags can save you the hassle of dealing with an unworthy company.

  • They don’t offer SEO audits:

    An agency that won’t audit your existing SEO cannot accurately analyze your website performance and find areas for improvement. This means your online visibility will not improve, and your search engine rankings will be low. This defeats the purpose of paying for expert services.
  • They guarantee results:

    While an SEO agency aims to improve your online visibility, a company that promises to land your agency at the top of search engines within a specific timeframe is likely a ‘black hat’. Various factors determine a website’s ranking, and your competitor’s actions or changes on their websites cannot be predicted. Hence, a good SEO company should only focus on doing their best and not making empty promises.
  • They use black hat techniques:

    Black hat techniques in SEO refer to websites using private link networks, stuffing keywords in content, content cloaking, and blog comment spam, among others. These are unethical acts done to rank highly and can result in penalties from search engines. They can also cause significant damage to your brand. You should ensure the company you choose to work with is honest and willing to show you how they reached the desired outcome for your website.
  • They overemphasize link-building:

    While backlinks are important for driving traffic, some agencies focus more on cramming content with private links than on quality content. The ideal SEO company focuses on growing your business through keyword research, organic traffic, and engagement.
  • They use outdated or low-quality content:

    A reliable company should focus on the quality of the content uploaded on your website rather than the quantity. Old or poor content can harm your credibility as well as your traffic. Agencies should use current and high-quality content for your website.
  • They lack transparency:

    Any agency you hire should be able to give you a detailed insight into their actions and progress each month. You should avoid a company that isn’t willing to do this.
  • They don’t have case studies or testimonials:

    Having a track record of previous clients shows you what you’re getting into and allows you to determine if you want to work with the company. An agency that cannot show these may lack the experience and skill to deliver adequate results.
  • They lack clear, detailed reporting or analytics:

    Quality SEO agencies should offer clear regular reporting that demonstrates impact and ROI. Reports and analytics should track and display key metrics of success, such as traffic, ranking and conversions.

What Are the Key Success Metrics in Michigan SEO?

To measure the success of your SEO efforts, your Michigan SEO agency should track and report on the following metrics:

  • Organic traffic:
