SEO.
Rankings that compound. Local first, then national.
Marketing Lions is a digital marketing agency in Minneapolis. Local search is the first thing we fix.
Built around the searches your customers actually type at the moment they decide — not the traffic chart your last agency screenshotted.
Most SEO work gets measured badly because it's done badly. We measure by closed deals. Rankings are a leading indicator — never the scoreboard.
What's in scope
The whole stack.
- Technical fixes — pages Google can actually read, sites that load before the user gives up
- Page-level — titles, headlines, internal links. The visible work that moves rankings
- Local — Google Business Profile, consistent name and address everywhere, the map pack
- Reviews — get more, respond well, clean up the unfair ones
- Content strategy — what to write, who writes it, how it actually ranks
- Link building — earned from real sites, not bought from an offshore vendor
- Site migrations — switching platforms without losing the rankings you already had
- Audits — the honest kind, with a list of fixes ranked by impact
How we measure
Closed business first.
Phone calls, form fills, meetings booked, deals closed. We trace what came from organic traffic and tie it back to the queries that drove it. Ranking reports are a leading indicator — useful, but not the scoreboard.
Proof in the work
Studio projects where this matters.
