We studied over 40 SEO agencies specializing in SEO for chiropractors to determine the top eight options for chiropractors. We developed a proprietary ranking algorithm to objectively rank each agency in accordance with the factors that influence the probability of success when working with the agency. Here is the algorithm:

• SEO Knowledge of Leadership Team (25%): We examined the SEO knowledge and publications of the leadership teams of each SEO agency. Agencies with long-form video training available were given preference. 
• Strength of Case Studies (30%): Each agency’s case studies were investigated for quality, thoroughness, strength of results, and documentation. 
• Location (5%): While not a true indication of quality, agencies in larger metropolitan areas were preferred due to the increased talent pool. 
• Year Founded (10%): Older agencies have weathered several Google algorithm changes to remain successful, signaling adaptability over time.
• Specialty (30%): Agencies with a specific focus on SEO for chiropractors were preferred for this list because of the greater subject matter expertise.
