Koramangala, Bengaluru, IndiaPublished by SEO Sadhu · we publish this page, so we have kept ourselves out of the ranked list below.Four things decided who made it, and one thing decided how we present ourselves.

Agencies that are visibly better at something specific, rather than listing every service in existence.

Eight agencies serving Rochester, NY, each with a clear speciality. Descriptions are drawn from each agency’s own website.
Rochester's agency scene splits into a few large independents and many smaller web and SEO shops clustered downtown (14604) and in the East End and Park Avenue area (14607). We left out agencies that list only a PO box, share an address with another firm, work by appointment only, sit outside the city (such as Victor) or do not show a street address on their own site. Only 8 agencies passed our checks, so this list has 8.

Six questions worth asking whoever you shortlist.
Strong at D2C performance marketing does not mean strong at B2B SEO. Shortlist for your actual bottleneck.
The people who pitch are often not the people on the account. Ask, and ask how many other clients they carry.
Ask for a redacted monthly report. If nothing in it connects to inquiries or revenue, expect an awkward month four.
Buyers now ask assistants before search engines. Ask how they get clients named in those answers.
Notice period, and whether your ads account, analytics and website stay in your name when you leave.
Nobody controls Google. A promised position means they misunderstand that, or expect you to.
