SEO Company
Found on Google Search and Maps by the people looking for you.
Last updated
Trusted by businesses across the United States and beyond
Social Agencies is an SEO company, based in Portland, Oregon, that helps businesses across the United States get found on Google Search and Google Maps. We fix the site first: speed, page structure and one page per service. Then we build your Google Business Profile and local presence, and report monthly on the searches that bring you customers.
The problem
Sound familiar?
The usual reasons a good business is invisible on Google, and none of them is the quality of the work.
-
Competitors show on the map, you don't
Someone nearby searches for exactly what you do, and three other businesses appear on the map. Your profile is thin, out of date or missing.
-
One page trying to cover everything
Every service sits on a single page, so Google cannot tell what you actually do. A page per service is what the businesses above you have.
-
Headings nobody searches for
The main heading is a clever line instead of the phrase your customer types, so Google has nothing to match it to.
-
A slow site on a phone
Pages that crawl on a cellular connection lose the visitor before they load, and speed is part of how Google judges a site.
Local SEO
How do I show up on Google Maps?
For most local businesses, the map results matter more than the list beneath them. They are driven by your Google Business Profile: its categories, services, photos, reviews and how active it is.
Social Agencies sets the profile up properly, keeps your name, address and phone number identical everywhere they appear, and builds a steady habit of asking for and replying to reviews.
- Categories and services set correctly
- The same name, address and phone everywhere
- A review routine that keeps going
- Service areas for businesses without a storefront
In build
Electro-Spark: a page for every service and every area it works in.
Social Agencies is building Electro-Spark, an electrical contractor and solar installer, a site designed to be found for each service it offers and each area it covers, rather than one page trying to rank for everything.
38pages, built around its services and areas

Book a callHow people search
People search in questions now
Buyers type or speak whole questions: who fixes this near me, how much does it cost, how long does it take. The pages that answer plainly are the ones that get shown and quoted.
Social Agencies writes each page to answer those questions directly, then backs it with the structure and local signals that help Google trust it.
- A clear answer near the top of every page
- Questions your buyers actually ask
- Facts, places and names, not filler

Why us
Why choose Social Agencies for SEO?
- 01
Built into the code from day one
Social Agencies builds websites as well as ranking them, so structure, speed and markup are part of the build, not a plugin bolted on after launch.
- 02
The H1 is the search phrase
Each page's main heading is the phrase your buyer types, like the firms already holding the top spots, rather than a clever line Google cannot match.
- 03
Fast sites
Hand-coded pages load quickly on a phone. Speed is part of how Google judges a site, and it is also what keeps a visitor from leaving.
- 04
Honest reporting
You get the searches you appear for, the calls and direction requests from Maps, and the inquiries from the site. No page of numbers that means nothing to you.
- 05
No ranking promises
Google decides rankings, so anyone promising first place is guessing. Social Agencies commits to the work that earns a place and shows you the trend every month.
No surprises
What can you count on?
A fixed quote in writing first
Social Agencies looks at where you stand today, then sends a fixed, itemized price. Nothing starts, and nothing is paid, before you have agreed to it.
You own it all
Your website, your Google Business Profile and your Search Console stay in your business's name. If you ever leave, you keep every page and every review.
Clear terms, no surprises
The monthly terms, including notice, are written into a short agreement you see before anything starts. No hidden exit fees.
A report you can read
Every month, the searches you appear for and the calls, directions and inquiries that came from them, in plain language.

It was an absolute pleasure working with James. He created an amazing website for us, maintained clear communication throughout the process, and ensured that all of our needs were met.

Jarred was incredibly professional, attentive, and patient throughout the entire process. … The final result exceeded all my expectations: the website is more beautiful and functional than I could have ever imagined.

Frequently asked questions
How long does SEO take?
Months, not weeks. Technical fixes and a proper business profile can show early movement, but earning a steady place in search takes consistent work. Social Agencies reports monthly so you can see the trend, not just the finish line.
How much does SEO cost?
It depends on how much work the site needs first, how competitive your searches are and how many areas you serve. A single-location service business and a company competing nationally are very different jobs. Social Agencies sends a fixed, itemized quote after a call about where you stand today.
Can you guarantee a first-page ranking on Google?
No, and be wary of anyone who does. Google decides rankings. Social Agencies commits to the work that makes a site rank: structure, speed, local presence and clear answers.
Why is my website not showing up on Google?
The usual causes are pages Google cannot read properly, headings that do not match what people search, one page trying to cover every service, a slow mobile site, or a missing business profile. Social Agencies checks each of these first.
What is the difference between SEO and Google Ads?
Google Ads buys a place at the top while you pay for it. SEO earns an organic place that keeps bringing visitors without paying per click, but it takes longer. Many businesses run ads while SEO builds.
Do I need local SEO if I don't have a storefront?
Yes. Plumbers, electricians and other trades that visit customers are exactly who local SEO serves. A Google Business Profile with a service area lets you appear on Maps without showing a home address.
Will you need access to my website?
Yes, for most of the work, along with access to your Google Business Profile and Search Console. If Social Agencies built your site, we already have what we need.
