Get found on Google.
Get chosen by customers.
Local SEO, technical SEO, and e-commerce SEO for Des Moines small businesses. Real rankings, real traffic, and monthly reports that show exactly what’s working.
If Google can’t find you, your customers can’t either
SEO isn’t optional for a local business in 2026. It’s the difference between a phone that rings and one that doesn’t.
Organic traffic doesn’t stop when you stop paying
Unlike ads, SEO builds compounding value. A page that ranks today keeps driving traffic for months and years — without an ongoing ad budget.
Local searches convert at the highest rate
76% of people who search for something nearby on their phone visit a business within a day. Local SEO puts you in front of buyers who are ready to act right now.
Your competitors are already investing in SEO
Every month you’re not ranking, a competitor is. The businesses showing up at the top of Google didn’t get there by accident — they invested in it consistently.
SEO builds trust, not just traffic
Ranking on the first page of Google signals legitimacy. Customers trust businesses that appear organically — and that trust translates directly to more calls, more clicks, and more sales.

What clients say
Real results from real Iowa businesses.
“Within 60 days of starting with The Web Silo I was showing up in the Google Maps pack for the first time. I started getting calls from people in my neighborhood who had never heard of me. That had never happened before.”
“The blog posts they write actually rank. I have people calling who found an article about a service I offer — no ads, just organic search. That’s the kind of marketing that pays for itself over and over.”
“Our product pages were invisible on Google. Six months after starting the Authority plan, three of our top products rank on page one. Our organic revenue has more than covered the cost of the service every month.”
