SEO Services
Rank where your buyers look. Show up on Google without paying for every click.
Paid ads stop the day you stop paying. Search rankings keep bringing calls. You get a site Google can read and trust, a local presence that shows up for nearby searches, and pages and videos that answer what your buyers are asking. Then you see what matters: calls, forms and booked work, not a list of keywords.
From our CRM Connect explainer: the local search result every business wants to be.

Why The Studio Creative
Your site, your content and your video, pulling the same way.
A faster site
Speed helps you rank and helps visitors stay. We cut this site from 26MB to about 1MB on a phone and raised its desktop PageSpeed score from 94 to the high 90s; yours gets the same care.
Web designVideo that shows up in results
Google shows videos in results for how-to and comparison searches, and YouTube is the most cited source in Google's AI Overviews. Yours are produced and optimized in-house.
Video productionNamed in AI answers too
The same work that ranks you on Google gets you cited by ChatGPT and AI Overviews, and you see both tracked.

Pricing
How SEO pricing works.
SEO is a monthly retainer, scoped from the audit by how many locations you serve and how competitive your searches are. For context, here is what the market charges.
Local SEO
An Ahrefs survey of 439 SEO providers found local SEO retainers average about $1,557 a month; agencies average more, freelancers less.
All SEO retainers
The same survey found the most common monthly band is $501 to $1,000, and most providers charge $2,000 a month or less.
One-time work
Technical audits and fixes, site migrations and Google Business Profile setup can be quoted as projects.
Content and video
New pages and videos can be part of the retainer or produced as projects.
FAQs
How long does SEO take to work?
Technical and local fixes can move results within weeks. New content usually takes three to six months to reach its level, and SEO keeps compounding as long as the work continues.
Do you guarantee rankings?
No, and be wary of anyone who does. Nobody controls Google. We commit to the work, the reporting and the leads it brings, and we show you all of it.
Do you do local SEO for businesses outside Michigan?
Yes. We are based in Grand Blanc and work with businesses across the country, including Central Florida.
What is the difference between SEO and GEO?
SEO earns rankings in search results; GEO earns mentions and citations in AI answers from ChatGPT, Gemini and Google's AI Overviews. They overlap heavily, and our SEO plans include the basics of both.
Will you write the content?
Yes. We interview you and write it, so it carries your real experience, which both Google and AI assistants now reward over generic articles.
Do I need a new website for SEO?
Not always. Many sites need fixes, not a rebuild. If the platform itself is the problem, the audit will say so plainly.
Is the free SEO checker a full audit?
No. It checks one page the way Google reads it: whether Google can list it, what your search result says, phone speed, business details and how easily a visitor can contact you. A full SEO audit, the first step of any SEO program, goes further, into your Google Business Profile, your competitors and the searches you are missing.
