How to choose a SEO company in New York

53 of the 57 rated SEO companies in New York hold a 4.5 or better, so almost everyone looks good at first glance. These are the checks that separated them in our data.

Count the reviews behind the rating

The median New York SEO company has 19 Google reviews, and 9 have 50 or more. Our score pulls thin ratings toward the city average, so a handful of five-star reviews cannot lift a business to the top.

See whether they can rank themselves

An SEO company that cannot rank itself for its own service in its own city has not shown it can rank you. 5 of 42 checked reach the first page of Google Maps for “seo agency near me”. Teams of 11 to 50 did it 6% of the time, against 8% for teams of ten or fewer.

Ask about tenure and the team

The median here has been in business 13.5 years, and 2 are under five. Newer businesses can be good value; ask for recent results from a client like you.

Questions to ask before you sign

  • Where does your own business rank on Google Maps for "seo agency near me" in this city, and why?
  • Which three clients can I look up on Google right now to see the rankings you built?
  • What do you do in month one, and what will I see in my reports by month three?
  • Do you build links, and where from?
  • Who owns the content and the tracking accounts if we part ways?

Questions about hiring in New York

What is the best SEO company in New York?

Mimvi SEO ranks first on our Explorer Score with 99 out of 100: a 5.0 Google rating from 89 reviews and position #3 on Google Maps. The right choice still depends on the service you need.

How many SEO companies are in New York?

We scored 57 SEO companies in New York, NY that have a Google Business Profile and a working website. 57 offer SEO and 31 offer website design.

How do I check whether they can really do the work?

See whether they rank for their own service. We searched “seo agency near me” from New York and only 3 of the 42 we checked were in the Google Maps top 3; 11 did not appear in the top 100.

Which New York SEO company has the most reviews?

United of Web | Design & Develop NYC has 102 Google reviews at 5.0. The median in the city has 19.

Can a business pay to rank higher here?

No. The order comes only from the Explorer Score: Google rating weighted by review count, Google Maps position and years in business. Claiming a listing lets an owner correct details and does not change the score.

How often is this list updated?

Ratings, review counts and Maps positions are re-checked regularly; this version is from 17 October 2026.
