We are not based in Birmingham
We work with Birmingham clients remotely from Franklin, Tennessee. We are on Central time, just like you.
But that is not the same as being local. We cannot get you into the Birmingham map results, because that needs an address in the metro. We can do everything else: your Google profile, websites, SEO, ads, tracking and software.
What a Birmingham marketing agency is competing against
Three things we see most here, and how each differs from Nashville.
A cheaper market
Fewer businesses here do the technical work. So a fast site and a well-kept Google profile stand out more than in Nashville. Ad clicks also cost less. A budget that wins here would barely register 200 miles north.
Over-the-Mountain is its own market
Mountain Brook, Homewood, Vestavia Hills and Hoover are different from the city. The people, prices and searches differ. One page about “Birmingham” tends to win one group and lose the other.
A medical economy that shapes the market
Healthcare around UAB drives much of the work here. Its privacy rules come up early in a project. They change what can be built, so we plan for them from the start.
What we can do for a Birmingham business
Each one links to its full page. Map results are left out on purpose.

Rankings are easier to win than in Nashville, because fewer competitors do the technical work.
- Google Ads Search · Local Services
Clicks cost noticeably less than in Nashville, so a smaller budget goes further.
- AI visibility ChatGPT · AI Overviews
Few competitors here do it yet, so it is cheap to start early.
- Websites Static, fast, and yours
A full website for $7,500. We work over Google Meet, on the same Central time as you.
- CRM integration Where the leads go
Distance does not matter. None of it needs anyone on site.
- Software development Apps · SaaS · enterprise
Healthcare-related work is common here, with the extra rules it brings.
Questions from Birmingham-area businesses
Can you build our website from Tennessee?
Yes. The Boost Your Digital Presence package works the same from a distance. We research the Birmingham market, then design and build your site. We meet over Google Meet, on Central time, at each step. You approve each step in writing, so nothing depends on being in the same room. The price is $7,500, and most sites go live in 9 to 12 weeks.
How do we get more Google reviews if you are not local?
Reviews come from your customers, not from us, so distance does not matter. We set up a simple way to ask every customer for a review after a job. You or your team send it. More recent reviews help you on Google, even when the map is out of our reach.
Are you based in Birmingham?
No. We work with Birmingham clients remotely from Franklin, Tennessee. We are on Central time, the same as you. But that is not the same as being local, and Google's map results are where it shows.
Can you get us into the Birmingham map results?
Not directly. Map results depend a lot on having an address in the metro, and ours is in Tennessee. We can still set up your own Google Business Profile: categories, services, photos and a simple way to get reviews.
What makes Birmingham different from Nashville for search?
It is a smaller, cheaper market. Fewer competitors do the technical work. Rankings and ad clicks cost less, but fewer people are searching. For most Birmingham businesses, a smaller budget goes further than it would in Nashville.
Which areas do you mean by Birmingham?
Mainly Jefferson and Shelby counties. Mountain Brook, Homewood, Vestavia Hills and Hoover act as a separate market from the city. The people and their searches are different. One page about “Birmingham” usually misses one or the other.
Do you work with healthcare businesses here?
Often. The medical industry around UAB drives much of the work here. Healthcare has extra privacy rules for software and marketing. We plan for those at the start, not at launch.
Is a smaller market a problem for a Birmingham marketing agency?
No, it is usually an advantage. With less competition, the basics go further. A fast site, a complete Google profile and steady reviews move you up faster than in a crowded market.
What does a Birmingham marketing agency usually charge?
Usually less than in Nashville, because the market is smaller. Our prices do not change by city, because the work is the same. A new website is $7,500 and our Core Retainer is $1,750 a month.
How do meetings work?
First, a call or Google Meet about your business. If we are a good fit, we send a written plan and a fixed price. The decision is yours.
What does it cost?
The same as anywhere. A new website is $7,500, and upkeep with SEO is $1,750 a month. All prices are on our pricing page.
