Choosing
Which SEO service do you need?
Start with how your customers search. Local SEO fits a business whose customers look for a provider nearby. Content-led SEO fits a business whose buyers research a problem before making contact. You may need both, with the effort weighted towards the way your customers choose a provider.
A one-off audit and fix project suits a site with clear technical problems when your own team can carry the work forward. An ongoing engagement suits you when you need new content, local work and regular reporting. The ongoing option asks more of your team too: someone needs to review material and keep the provider informed as your services change.
Before hiring, ask what the provider will change, why those changes were chosen and how success will be measured. Be cautious with secretive methods or promises of first place. We start by learning about your business, customers and goals, then agree the scope with you so the work fits the decision you have made.
Local
What Chicago organisations need from search
Chicago’s finance and commerce activity includes professional firms and companies selling to other businesses. An accountant or consultant needs pages that name the people doing the work and show evidence of their expertise. A B2B company needs answers to buyer questions and case studies that a prospective customer can share internally.
Chicago is also home to the University of Chicago, Northwestern University and the University of Illinois Chicago. An education organisation can use guides and service pages planned around what its audience actually searches for, with useful information on the pages those searches lead to.
For Chicago trades, clinics, salons and repair firms, local search work includes a complete Google Business Profile, genuine reviews and a clear page for each service. Citations and location pages should reflect the places the business actually serves.
How it runs
How an SEO project runs with us
We work remotely over video calls, WhatsApp and shared project boards. India time is 10h30m ahead of Eastern time to 13h30m ahead of Pacific time in winter, and 1 hour less during daylight saving time. The shared board keeps questions and decisions visible across the difference.
- 01
Audit
We examine what holds your site back in search and order the findings by impact. You tell us about the services and customers you want the work to focus on.
- 02
Baseline
We record organic traffic, enquiries, indexed pages and the searches your site already appears for. That gives us a reference for assessing later changes.
- 03
Access
You give us read access to Search Console for the audit. Keep write access back at this stage while we examine the site.
- 04
Content
You review new and rewritten pages for accuracy, supply photos and examples, and answer questions about your work. Your expertise gives the pages their substance.
- 05
Build and care
Where page design or development is in scope, we refine designs with your feedback, build and test on real devices and browsers, then handle launch setup and ongoing support.
Checklist
What to have ready before we talk
These details help us understand the site and decide where to start.
- AccessHave Search Console, analytics, website admin and DNS details ready, with your business kept as owner.
- PrioritiesList the services with good margins or spare capacity, along with any you want fewer enquiries for.
- EvidenceGather project photos, case studies, reviews, credentials, memberships and short bios for the people doing the work.
- HistoryNote past providers, bought links, previous domains, redesigns, migrations and any traffic drops you noticed.
- EnquiriesNote how leads arrive and whether anyone records their source.
Cost & time
What affects the cost and scope of SEO
The work needed depends on the site you have and the searches you want to reach.
Site condition
A large site with duplicate pages, slow templates or indexing errors needs more fixes than a small, clean site.
Competition
The number and strength of businesses pursuing the same searches affect the content and reputation-building work needed.
Content
Improving existing pages takes less work than planning and producing a new set. Who writes the material also affects the scope.
Past problems
Bought links, thin pages, hacked content or a manual action can require cleanup before growth work starts.
Avoid
Mistakes to avoid with SEO
Duplicated location pages
Avoid pages that only swap the place name and funnel visitors to one page. Give each location page useful material for the people it serves.
Mass-produced AI pages
Avoid generating large numbers of pages without adding anything useful for readers. Plan content around a real question or service.
Incentivised reviews
Do not offer gifts or discounts for Google reviews, or ask only happy customers to leave one. Invite genuine feedback without selecting for sentiment.
Stuffed profile names
Use the business name customers see on your website, invoices and signage. Do not add keywords or taglines to the Business Profile name.
Questions
Asked by businesses in Chicago
Page updated 5 November 2026
What does an SEO company do?
An SEO company examines what holds a site back and works on the pages and technical problems affecting search. We fix speed, indexing, redirects and crawl problems in the code alongside content and local work. Monthly reporting covers rankings, traffic and enquiries using Search Console and analytics.
How much does an SEO company cost?
There is no fixed price: the scope depends on the work your site needs. A platform that blocks title edits or structured data can make changes harder, while producing new guides and service pages adds content work. We agree the scope with you after learning about your business and goals.
Do I need a separate AI-search package?
Look closely at what is being sold before adding one. Google says no special markup, AI text files or extra optimisation is needed to appear in AI Overviews or AI Mode. Ask the provider to explain the actual changes included and how those changes relate to your site.
Who owns my Google Business Profile?
Your business should own it and add the provider as a manager. A manager can edit the profile, but cannot add or remove users or delete it. That lets the provider carry out profile work while your business retains control over access and the profile itself.
How will I know if the SEO work is helping?
Judge it by enquiries and sales from organic search, with rankings and traffic as supporting signs. Search Console’s Performance report shows clicks, impressions, click-through rate and average position by query and page. A report limited to rankings for hand-picked keywords leaves out too much.
Can you promise a particular Google ranking?
No. Search visibility changes gradually and depends on competition, content and your site’s history. Google says nobody can promise a top ranking, so treat a promised position as a warning sign when comparing providers. Ask instead how the work will be measured against your business goals.
