Score breakdown

Website Presence

Weight: 20%

90/100

The evidence shows a substantial, professional website with clear positioning, detailed service pages across SEO, paid media, analytics, email and website optimization, published pricing, free tools, and full contact information, which supports a strong score.

Search Visibility

Weight: 20%

72/100

Search visibility evidence is limited but positive: the domain searchinfluence.com is reported as registered in January 2006 (~20 years old) and recently updated, yet no traffic, rankings, backlink, or third-party visibility metrics were provided, so the score remains conservative.

Trust & Credibility

Weight: 20%

84/100

Trust signals are solid because the company has verifiable firmographics (New Orleans address, phone, email, founded 2006, 11-50 employees, LinkedIn presence), a BBB profile with an A+ rating, and positive Clutch reviews, though review volume is still small and BBB customer-review/complaint details were not verified.

Market Presence

Weight: 15%

78/100

Search Influence shows a meaningful footprint through its long operating history since 2006, industry-focused service offering, LinkedIn presence, Clutch/G2/BBB listings, and claims of serving New Orleans and nationwide clients, but the external evidence base is not especially broad.

Customer Satisfaction

Weight: 10%

86/100

Customer satisfaction appears strong based on 3 readable Clutch reviews, all rated 5/5 and praising communication, on-time delivery, quality, and results, but the sample size is small and other review platforms did not provide verifiable review text or counts.

Pricing

  • Pricing model: Custom quote with monthly retainers for ongoing SEO and paid media management; SEO is billed as a flat monthly fee, while paid search/social/display management starts with a monthly management fee plus ad spend and an upfront setup fee. Search Influence also offers limited one-time work such as consulting, Google Ads audits, advanced analytics/tracking audits, and one-time SEO audits.
  • Starting price: $1,000 / month
  • Typical range: $2,500-$10,000 / month
  • Billing: Primarily monthly. SEO is a flat monthly retainer. Paid media management is billed monthly and described as a percentage of total monthly paid media investment, with a published starting point of $1,000/month when bundled, plus ad spend; paid media also typically includes a one-time setup fee.
  • Contract terms: SEO engagements require a 12-month commitment. No specific contract term was found for paid media on the pages reviewed.
  • Free trial: Free AI Content Grader and Free SEO Website Grader are available without an account, but no free trial or pilot for agency services was found.

Search Influence does publish meaningful pricing on its own site: SEO starts at $2,500/month and can reach $10,000/month, while bundled paid media management starts at $1,000/month plus ad spend, with a typical setup fee of $3,500-$5,000. Clutch also lists a $5,000+ minimum project size and a $150-$199 hourly rate, but those are directory-reported marketplace figures rather than pricing published by Search Influence itself. GoodFirms shows $25-$49/hr, which conflicts with Clutch and appears to be a third-party directory estimate, so it should be treated cautiously rather than as authoritative pricing from the agency.

Reviews & reputation

Search Influence has a clearly identifiable third-party review presence on Clutch, G2, and BBB. Clutch shows a small but very positive set of client reviews, G2 has a product/service listing discoverable in search but I could not reliably read individual review text from the accessible results, and BBB shows a business profile with an A+ rating but no readable customer-review text in the accessible page content. I did not find a confirmed profile for this specific company on Trustpilot, Google, or Capterra in the search results I examined.

  • G2Listed

    Search Influence is present on G2 as a product/service listing, evidenced by a dedicated G2 page for Search Influence alternatives. However, in the accessible search/open results I reviewed, I could not clearly verify a visible rating, review count, or readable individual review text for this company.

  • TrustpilotNot listed
  • GoogleNot listed
  • CapterraNot listed
  • BBBA+
    Not Accredited

    BBB has a business profile for Search Influence matching the company name, address, and website. The accessible BBB page shows an A+ BBB rating and that the business is not accredited, but I could not verify readable customer-review text or a visible complaint total from the page content I accessed.
