What you can see before you call

10 of 14 name a leader. 11 of 14 name at least one client. 2 of 14 publish a price. If a line is missing on a profile, no source stated it.

Specialties named by more than one firm: local SEO (8); pay-per-click (4); SEO (4); web design (4); content marketing (3).

Why the first three are here

Spinutech (Cedar Falls, IA). Google Premier Partner and the largest Iowa-headquartered agency whose work is entirely digital, with search as a named core practice since 2000.

Blue Compass (West Des Moines, IA). Won Best Small National SEO Agency, Best Use of Search B2B (HK Solutions Group) and Best Local SEO Campaign (Wolfe Eye Clinic) at the US Search Awards, per its own site.

Optimist (Des Moines, IA). A Des Moines firm whose entire practice is organic search for software companies, with a client list that includes Semrush itself.

The other profiles are on the list. Each one says who leads the firm when a source named them, work they can show when they published it, and a price when they published one.

How to use the list

Write what done looks like in one paragraph. Keep the two or three firms whose reason matches that job. Ask each for one piece of work like yours, and the name of the person who would do it.

The order weighs how long the firm has done the work, clients it can name, its size, and how clear its specialism is. A featured card, where one appears, is paid placement for Fracs and sits outside the ranking.
