Frequently Asked Questions

Are you based in Evansville?

Although we have experience working in New York City for Fortune 500 clients, Accuracy SEO is a business located in Evansville, Indiana. Most of our clients are in Evansville and we routinely make location visits to clients in Southern Indiana.

Do you work with clients outside of Evansville?

Accuracy SEO has a long-standing subcontracting agreement with a marketing agency in Columbus, Ohio. We do SEO work for multiple law firms in Ohio and occasionally accept other clients nationwide.

How much does SEO cost in Evansville?

Our plans start at $250 a month and top out at $800. Every price is listed on this page, and you’ll always know what you’re paying for. Other agencies quote “custom pricing” because it lets them charge whatever they think you’ll pay.

Can I cancel services at any time?

Although SEO takes time to produce results, our services are offered month to month and can be canceled at any time. Most of our clients stay on for several months to several years. However, you’re free to cancel after even a single month.


SEO vs. Google Ads: which is better for a small business?

SEO earns unpaid rankings that keep working after you stop paying us. Google Ads buys the top spot for as long as you keep paying Google. Ads work on day one, and SEO takes months, so many of our clients run both. Our Scale Plan includes Google Ads management for exactly that reason.

What industries do you work with?

We’ve worked with local massage studios, yoga instructors, contractors, law firms, restaurants, clothing manufacturers, and more. Before starting Accuracy SEO, I also worked with insurance providers, online universities, appliance wholesalers, and dozens of other businesses. If you need to be found online, our SEO process can help.

Do you offer GEO or AI search optimization?

Yes, and it’s built into every SEO plan rather than sold as an add-on. AI models look for the same signals Google does: authoritative content and consistent mentions across the web. Be skeptical of anyone selling GEO as a separate service. Also be wary of local providers who lean a little too heavily into “AI slop.” Google is actively working to identify and punish low-effort websites that are built by programmatic AI.

What are citations, and why do they matter?

Citations are mentions of your business name, address, and phone number on sites like Yelp, Bing Places, and Apple Maps. There are hundreds of opportunities for citations on the Internet. When you build consistent citations on niche and general websites, Google trusts that you are who you say you are and may rank you higher in local search. We offer citations in every SEO plan as part of link building.

How long does SEO take?

SEO is a long-term effort. We generally consider 10% monthly growth to be a successful rate (doubling your business in under a year) but we sometimes see months with 30-40% improvement. This will be different if you’re launching a new website.

Don’t try to scale too fast. This is a common new AI strategy and Google is working to punish it.

How long has Accuracy SEO been open?

Although I started working in SEO in 2006, Accuracy SEO opened for business in 2024.

We received our first clients that year and have been bringing affordable rates, honesty, integrity, and individualized attention to our clients in Evansville and beyond ever since.

How do your prices compare to other providers?

Our services are competitive with any reputable agency, and we provide more deliverables, greater access, and more genuine care to each of our clients. No other provider in Evansville provides prices on their websites; we’re more affordable than all of them.

How and why? We live in Evansville, work from home, and intentionally stay small.

What SEO mistakes do you commonly see?

Almost every business that provides marketing or web design claims to do SEO too. I’ve seen the work of many of these Evansville agencies, and I can tell you that most of them haven’t even mastered the basics of SEO, let alone the nuances.

Another new issue is leaning too heavily into AI. If it looks too easy, it is. Some AI strategies that work today won’t work three years from now. Don’t fall for full automation.

Identify priorities

Find technical issues and SEO priorities with a site audit. This allows you to tackle the most important issues first and put a stop to any problems that may be hindering your search engine results rankings.

Create a targeted SEO plan

Utilize keyword research to analyze your competitors and identify keyword targets. Put the results of your site audit to good use by creating a balanced plan for content creation, link building, and technical optimization.

Begin long-term growth

Grow your web presence through new targeted content and high quality links. Keep your site regularly updated and send positive signals to Google and other search engines that your business is expanding and dedicated to quality.

View of Evansville

Why choose an SEO provider based in Evansville, Indiana?

When I was an SEO Strategist in New York City, I was working for an online marketing agency that sold my services for tens of thousands of dollars a month. I took home a fraction of that, but the work I’m selling now reflects rates even lower than my former take home pay.

Accuracy SEO is a startup, and I’m focused on creating loyal clients and a successful portfolio. Since I work from home in Evansville, I benefit from a low cost of living and cheap overhead. These factors have led me to offer the same services that I performed in New York City at prices that my former employers would have balked at.

In this case, choosing an SEO provider based in Evansville, Indiana means you get the same service you’d find at a major marketing agency for a tiny fraction of what you’d pay in bigger city!

The Importance of Local SEO in Evansville

When it comes to businesses serving the Evansville area, local SEO is crucial. Evansville is home to a diverse range of businesses dependent on local customers, from lawn care providers to dentists and law firms. By focusing on local SEO, you ensure that your business shows up when people search for services “near me.” A search for something like “lawn care providers near me” can be a valuable source of targeted customers.

In addition to “near me” keywords, our local SEO strategies are designed to help you rank in the coveted “Local Pack,” which is the group of businesses that show up at the top of Google’s local search results, just under the map. Even if you don’t rank in the top 3 of organic results, ranking in the Local Pack gives your business more visibility, credibility, and increases the likelihood of new customer acquisition.

Key Elements of Our Local SEO Strategy:

  • Google Business Profile Optimization: We ensure your listing is complete, accurate, and optimized for relevant search terms.
  • Citation Building: We add your business name, address, phone number, and more details across dozens of platforms like Yelp and the Yellow Pages.
  • On-Page Optimization: We ensure your content contains the local keywords that will help you rank for targeted searches.

Accuracy SEO can help your business show up in local searches. Contact us to find out more details.
