Top SEO Companies Michigan

I have reviewed over 126 in Michigan and have put together a list of the top SEO companies in Michigan. As a seasoned SEO professional, and one who has worked at various agencies, I can confidently say that these below agencies represent the very best Michigan has to offer.

To make it on this list, agencies must have exceptional customer reviews, clear evidence of client performance in case studies, and staff experienced in SEO. I do NOT receive payment from any of the SEO agencies on this list. If an SEO company is on this list, it is on their merit alone.

The agency alternative

I rate these agencies. An agency still might not be what you need.

If you would rather have a senior SEO working inside your team than hand the work to an account manager, that is what The Fractional SEO does, from $2,500 a month.

How we ranked Michigan SEO companies

We reviewed dozens of agencies serving Michigan, weighing more than fifty separate points of information for each. These are the categories that decided the order.

Client performance: Case studies and customer reviews for every agency, read for evidence of actual outcomes (keyword movement, traffic growth, lead volume) rather than claims about process.
Employee experience: The LinkedIn profile of every SEO employee at each firm: years of SEO-specific experience, how deep it goes, and whether it leans strategic, implementation, or account management. A large team of generalists is a different proposition from a small team of specialists.
Customer satisfaction: Reviews on Google and third-party platforms, weighted by what clients actually say rather than the star average: what they valued, how they were treated, and how long they stayed. Engagement length says more than a rating does.
Location: Every firm listed here is based in or near Michigan. An agency that merely sells into this market is not the same as one that works in it.

No agency paid to appear on this page, and none can. We are not on our own lists either. The Fractional SEO is not an agency, so including ourselves would be dishonest in a different direction.

Not sure an agency is the right shape?

Every firm above bills as an agency. A fractional SEO is a senior operator embedded in your team instead, often for less than an agency's minimum retainer.
