DesignRush Names Top SEO Agencies for Technical SEO and Strategy in March 2026

Searchbloom claimed the top spot in DesignRush's March 2026 ranking of leading SEO agencies, a list built from a pool of more than 23,000 US firms evaluated on portfolio work, keyword strategy, technical SEO, reporting, and search optimization processes.

The B2B platform published the ranking on March 19, 2026, positioning it as a resource for companies seeking agencies with demonstrated capability in technical SEO, on-page optimization, and content strategies built to improve search structure and visibility. The full Top 12, in order: Searchbloom ("Data-Driven SEO for Real Results"), Funnel Boost Media ("Local SEO Built for AI Discovery"), Big Leap ("SEO Content Marketing for Organic Growth"), ForeFront Web ("Conversion-Focused Search and Web Design"), SEO Brand ("Two Decades of Excellence in Search Strategy"), worldwideRiches ("Established Expertise in SEO and Web Design"), Epidemic Marketing ("Search Execution Aligned With AI Discovery"), Just By Design ("Strategic Brand Architecture With Search Intent"), Ignite Visibility ("SEO and AI Optimization for Enterprise Brands"), Boostability ("Search Visibility for Growing Businesses"), Intero Digital ("Full-Service SEO Powered by Patented Technology"), and Digital Silk ("Engaging Web Experiences Designed for Modern Search").

Two firms in the ranking came with detailed supporting data. Intero Digital, ranked 11th, published a case study showing what its SEO work delivered for an indoor trampoline park competing in the family entertainment market: a 61.4% lift in overall traffic, a 59.2% expansion in ranking keywords, a 53.9% gain in top-10 placements, and a 96.7% increase in keywords moving into positions 11 through 20. The strategy involved adding content across all category pages and building a long-term publishing plan.

Big Leap, ranked third out of Lehi, Utah, carries a $5,000 monthly minimum and lists Avis Car Rental, Budget Car Rental, UCLA, Purple Mattress, Visionworks, The Honest Company, Paul Mitchell Schools, and AlphaGraphics among its clients. Its service stack spans AI SEO, generative engine optimization, paid media, digital PR, and brand development alongside conventional search work.

The AI angle runs through several of the descriptors DesignRush assigned to the ranked firms. Both Funnel Boost Media at number two and Epidemic Marketing at number seven are explicitly tagged around AI discovery, reflecting the growing pressure on SEO agencies to account for how generative AI tools surface and recommend content rather than relying solely on traditional organic rankings.

DesignRush has been compiling agency rankings since expanding its platform in 2017, adding case studies, design awards, and executive interviews alongside its directory of agencies. The March 2026 SEO ranking evaluates firms listed in that global directory, though the platform did not publish scoring weights or reviewer details alongside the announcement.
