Start with the kind of business you run. Local practices and trades get the most focused attention from Firestarter SEO and Epidemic Marketing, the two firms here built almost entirely around search; Fruition suits organizations that want SEO, the website and its hosting under one contract; Booyah fits brands with large paid budgets; BLKDG is the pick for Shopify stores; and Location3 is built for franchise systems. On timing, Google’s SEO Starter Guide notes that some changes might take effect in a few hours while others could take several months, so ask for a timeline with milestones rather than a single launch date.
Do FAQ snippets and other rich results still help SEO?
Fewer of them exist. Google limited FAQ rich results to well-known, authoritative government and health websites in August 2023, dropped how-to rich results that September, and stopped showing FAQ rich results in search altogether starting May 7, 2026; during 2025 it also retired structured data features including course info, estimated salary, learning video, special announcement and vehicle listing. Markup for features Google still supports remains worthwhile, but a plan built around results Google no longer displays will not deliver what it promises.
Who should control your Search Console and Google Analytics accounts?
You should. In Google Search Console, a verified owner has full control of a property and can add or remove other people, while an agency can do its work as a full user, which has view rights to all data and can take some actions; if every verified owner is removed, everyone else loses access after a grace period. In Google Analytics 4, only an Administrator can add or remove users, so keep that role inside your company and give the agency Editor or Marketer access instead.
Do Colorado web pages and ads have to show the full price?
Yes, since January 1, 2026. House Bill 25-1090, signed in April 2025, requires sellers that advertise or display a price to show the total price, meaning the maximum total of all amounts including fees and charges, as a single number that is more prominent than other pricing information; government charges such as taxes, and shipping costs, can be left out. A violation counts as a deceptive, unfair and unconscionable trade practice under the Colorado Consumer Protection Act, so pricing and landing pages your agency writes should state all-in totals.
