SEO
Technical, on-page, content, local and international SEO that makes your site easy to crawl, understand and choose.
Marketing & SEO
Be found by the people already looking for you.
Search Engine Foundry helps businesses earn visibility in Google, Bing and the AI-generated answers that now sit above the links. We start with research, work within search engine guidelines, and tell you plainly what is working and what is not.
Your smart competitors will find you. Make sure your customers do too.
The competitors worth worrying about are already studying your site, your rankings and your ads. The people you want to reach are searching too, with their own words and their own expectations.
Our job is to close that gap. We research how your buyers actually search, find out where you stand against the businesses competing for the same attention, and then do the technical, content and promotion work that earns you a better place in the results. No shortcuts that could get your site penalized, and no reports dressed up to look better than reality.

How we work
Research first, then a plan you can read, then steady work that is measured honestly.
-
Research
We learn your business, your customers and your market, and look at how people actually search for what you offer.
-
Audit
We review your site's technical health, content, visibility and competitors, and write down what we find.
-
Roadmap
You get a prioritized plan that separates what is desirable from what is doable now, and explains what each item is for.
-
Optimize and report
We do the work, track the results, and adjust as search engines and your competitors change.
Why work with us
A few principles we hold to on every engagement.
White-hat methods only
We follow search engine guidelines. No hidden text, link schemes or mass-produced pages that put your domain at risk.
No ranking guarantees
Nobody controls the results, so we do not promise positions. We promise careful work and a clear account of it.
Honest reporting
Our reports show what went down as well as what went up, and tie search activity back to leads and sales where we can.
Research before recommendations
We look at your market, your buyers and your competitors before we suggest anything, not after.
Built for how your buyers search
An engineer comparing specifications searches differently from a consumer with a problem. We plan for the people you actually sell to.
Senior people on your account
We are a small, senior team. The people who plan the work are the people who do it and report on it.
Common questions
How long does SEO take to work?
It depends on your starting point, your market and how strong your competitors are. Technical fixes can show up fairly quickly once pages are recrawled; content and authority take longer to build. We will give you a realistic view after the audit rather than a number pulled from the air.
Can you guarantee a first-page or number-one ranking?
No, and you should be wary of anyone who does. Search engines decide rankings, and they change how they do it all the time. What we can commit to is sound, guideline-compliant work and honest reporting on the results.
What is included in the free audit?
A review of your site's technical health and content, a look at how you currently appear in search for the terms that matter to you, a quick comparison with a few competitors, and a short list of the changes we would make first. It is yours to keep whether or not we work together.
Do you work on visibility in AI search tools?
Yes. Google's AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity and similar tools draw on sources they can crawl, understand and trust. We help make your site one of those sources. It is a newer, fast-moving area, and we are upfront about what can and cannot be measured yet. More on AI search visibility.
How do engagements and pricing work?
Every engagement starts with an audit and a roadmap. From there, ongoing work runs on a monthly retainer, and defined pieces of work can be quoted as a project. We price once we understand the scope, and you will know the cost before anything starts.
