The only SEO company that runs its own search engine.
Every other SEO company works from the outside, guessing at what search engines reward. CGMIMM is a search engine. For nearly 20 years we've crawled, indexed and ranked the web, built business profiles for every US city, tracked the links between websites, and answered customers' questions with our own AI. That's the knowledge, the data and the tools behind your SEO.
Our own search engine. We crawl, index and rank the web every day.
Our own business profiles, in every industry in every US city.
Our own ad network, on searches no other agency can buy.
Our own AI search, answering customers' questions on cgmimm.com.
Every website measured on our own speed test. The sites we build and host score up to 99 on desktop.
Citations & backlinks
Authority is what search engines trust.
Search engines rank the businesses they trust most. Two things build that trust outside your own website: citations and backlinks.
Citations
Every place your business is listed, from directories and maps to industry sites, is a citation. When your name, address and phone match everywhere, search engines trust you're real and where you say you are. Mismatches and duplicates cost you rankings, especially in local results.
Backlinks
Every link from another website to yours is a vote of trust. Links from trusted, relevant sites lift your rankings; links from spam sites, link networks and doorway pages can pull them down. Quality counts far more than quantity.
New: CGM Authority
We see every link the way a search engine does.
We built CGM Authority on our own link index, the links our search engine finds as it crawls the web. It finds every link pointing to your website and scores each one: which help, which hurt, and which quality sites link to your competitors but not to you yet. It checks them every day.

Other SEO firms go looking for links. We're where the links are.
Most SEO firms pitch bloggers, trade guest posts and buy links on sites nobody visits. We run the hub. Through Linkmart, your links go on the CGMIMM network, pages that CGMIMM, Google, Bing and AI assistants read every day, chosen for your industry and your city.

SEO questions
What are SEO services?+
SEO (search engine optimization) services get your business found when customers search. A complete SEO strategy covers three things: organic SEO for your website, local SEO for your business profiles, and AI SEO so AI assistants recommend you.
Why choose an SEO company that runs its own search engine?+
Most SEO companies guess at what search engines reward from the outside. We've run our own search engine since 2007, with our own crawler, index, business profiles, link data and AI search, so our SEO is built on how search actually works.
How much do SEO services cost?+
It depends on your market, your competition and your goals, so we don't sell set packages. Book a free strategy call and we'll build a plan and a price around your business.
Do I need organic, local and AI SEO?+
Most businesses do. Organic SEO wins the search results, local SEO wins the nearby and "near me" searches, and AI SEO gets you recommended in AI answers. Together they cover every way customers look for you.
Can you guarantee first place?+
No honest SEO company can guarantee a ranking, because each search engine controls its own results. We guarantee the work that rankings are built on, and report it every month.
