Moz’s Recommended List of SEO/Marketing Consultants, Firms & Agencies

Moz has maintained this list of recommended firms providing services in the web marketing field since 2005. We offer it as a free resource with no remuneration, listing fees, referral payments, or kickbacks of any kind. There is no requirement or expectation for those using this list to find firms that they will mention it as the source of finding a consultant. In this way, we can maximize the list’s independence from bias or manipulation.

How to Use the List

My recommendation is to choose several consultants/agencies that fit your needs, your budget, and, if applicable/important to you, your geography. Talk with several of them over email/phone and make a selection based on those conversations. I’d also suggest checking out these resources: How to Choose a Good SEO Company for Your Business, Ignore Top SEO Lists. If you’re seeking Local SEO services, check out David Mihm’s (now Moz Local’s) excellent list of Local SEO Companies. And, if you need a broader list than what’s provided here, check out John Doherty’s Credo Consultants & Agencies.

More information on How to Get Your Company Listed, the List Curation Process, and Company Qualifications can be found at the bottom of this page.


58 Companies Currently On the Recommended List:

This list is not presented in a ranked order. I’d suggest finding firms that match your business needs first and then presenting your project goals to several via phone or email to determine a best fit.

How Can I/My Company Get Listed?

Do great work! Publish excellent research and resources, give remarkable talks at industry events, help your fellow marketers succeed, delight your clients with incredible results, and be a positive contributor to the web marketing field. Over time, those whose contributions and work make it onto the radars of the Curation Board (see below) will be nominated and voted upon for inclusion.

This process is not meant to be comprehensive or entirely unbiased. We recognize that those who do more public work (speaking, publishing, making transparent contributions, etc) are often likely to be more visible to the Curation Board than those who simply do “heads down” work. However, many folks listed were nominated and voted in due to great client projects that our board was able to observe through subcontracting/partnerships/shared accounts/case studies/etc as well.

We ask that those seeking to be included do not attempt to influence suspected Curation Board members (or beg/bribe/cajole Rand). Such practices will result in a veto vote even if you do manage to get nominated.

List Curation:

A group of ~50 marketing professionals from across the digital industry (from dozens of unique companies) maintain this list through a nomination and voting process. This private Curation Board does not accept payment, trade, or services. The Curation Board itself remains anonymous in order to prevent lobbying or undue influence of any kind (Moz founder Rand Fishkin is the only publicly acknowledged member, as he personally maintains this resource).

Nominations are submitted by Curation Board members over the course of the year and outstanding nominations are voted on 2X yearly. In order to be listed, a consultant/firm must receive at least 3 endorsements (no more than 1 from any single company represented on the Curation Board) and 0 vetoes. This process is very selective; only ~15-20 consultants/firms are nominated each year and fewer than 25% of those nominated become listed.

Recommended Companies Qualifications:

There are no specific requirements for listed firms or individual consultants apart from the trust and positive experiences of the list’s Curation Board. That said, we have endorsed many of the folks on this list for years and received almost universally positive feedback. If you have a positive or negative experience you’d like to share about one of the listed firms, please contact Rand.
