How to choose an SEO agency as a small business
- Match the agency to your size. Many well-known agencies serve large brands with $10,000+ budgets. Ask who their typical client is.
- Ask for the keyword plan. A good agency shows the keywords it will target, with search volumes, before you sign.
- Check the term. Six and twelve month minimums are common. Know how to exit.
- Ask about Google Maps and reviews. For local businesses, these often bring more calls than blog traffic.
- Ask how they measure AI visibility. If they sell GEO, they should test real customer questions in AI assistants every month.
Questions
Choosing a US SEO agency: common questions
How much does SEO cost for a small business in the US?
Surveys show most SEO providers charge $1,000 to $2,500 a month. Local SEO can start lower. Large agencies often start at $3,000 to $6,000 a month with 6 to 12 month terms.
Are AI SEO tools enough?
Tools at $99 to $499 a month can write content and track rankings. They do not usually manage your Google Business Profile, ask for reviews or build mentions on other sites. Those tasks often need a person.
