SageRock.com Ranked One of Top 10 Search Engine Marketing Companies in U.S.
Cleveland, December 31 - The marketingSherpa.com Buyer's Guide to Search Engine Optimization and Positioning Services has ranked SageRock.com as one of the top 10 search engine marketing firms in the United States. The Buyer's guide is the first guide to be published for the young search engine optimization (SEO) industry, and it helps companies select an appropriate vendor for their web-marketing needs.
The Guide has highlighted and scored the top 50 companies, worldwide, and the top 25 companies within the U.S. SageRock.com President Sage Lewis was honored to have his firm recognized both as one of the top 50 worldwide companies, and then also as one of the top 10 companies within the U.S.
"I was deeply honored by our ranking, and happy to see that a guide like this is finally available to companies seeking web marketing solutions. It's great to be recognized for the way we do business, and our ranking illustrates our focus on customer service, quality work, and affordable pricing."
Guide users get a snapshot of who is most and least expensive, indicated by $, $$, $$$, $$$$ and $$$$$. SageRock.com was ranked exactly as the firm expected according to Lewis.
"We were given $$ in our ranking and that rating is right on. Our target market is the small business sector with $2,500 to $30,000 in their web marketing budgets. Companies with 4 and 5 dollar signs are targeting companies with budgets that start with $30,000 budgets. But the truth is, we don't really provide a very different level of work compared to these giant firms. As a smaller company ourselves, we're simply able to maneuver better within this economy, and that allows us to offer quality SEO services to the small business market."
The guide excels beyond being a buyer's guide by also being an industry educator, answering questions and educating consumers about search engine marketing and how services effect a company's bottom line. They also discuss the debate of doing search engine marketing work in house or hiring the services out, and highlight what a company will really be paying for when hiring a firm.
According to Lewis, the most invaluable section of the guide is the 14-point Best Practices Questionnaire, which gives companies 14 effective questions to ask SEO firms and then tells the answers they should receive.
"The questions are of course valuable," says Lewis, "But the guide to the proper answers is priceless. Especially considering that the guide takes the time to consider a few different answers a company could get from an SEO firm and what those different answers say about the firm."
