Minnesota companies use TLG Marketing to show up on Google in Minneapolis, St. Paul and their suburbs, and in Rochester, Duluth, St. Cloud, Mankato and the lake towns up north, with metro pages, Google Business Profiles and reporting on calls. Our agency has been in business since 2006, and we serve Minnesota companies remotely from Long Beach, California.

How Minnesota searches differ

  • The Twin Cities are two cities and many suburbs. Minneapolis and St. Paul have different downtowns and neighborhoods, and suburbs like Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Edina and Woodbury are searched by name. Target, Best Buy, General Mills, 3M and UnitedHealth Group are all based in the metro, creating a large corporate buyer base.
  • Rochester and Duluth are distinct markets. Mayo Clinic brings patients and families to Rochester from around the world, while Duluth is a Lake Superior port and the gateway to the North Shore. Each needs pages built for its own visitors and residents.
  • Lake country and the Iron Range follow the seasons. Brainerd, Alexandria and other lake towns fill with cabin owners in summer, ice fishing brings visitors in winter, and the Iron Range has a mining economy. Seasonal demand there is strong and short.
  • Many Minnesotans search in other languages. The Twin Cities have the largest Somali community in the country and one of the largest Hmong communities, along with Spanish and Karen speakers, so translated pages can help reach them.

Working with TLG from anywhere in Minnesota

In the metro, we often split the service area along the river, with Minneapolis and the west metro on one set of pages and St. Paul and the east metro on another. Rochester, Duluth, St. Cloud and the lake regions get pages of their own, and each location has its own Google Business Profile.

Where your customers include Somali, Hmong or Spanish speakers, we add translated pages for your main services. You get one report showing rankings, calls and leads across the state.

// Questions

SEO in Minnesota: common questions

Do you work with businesses across Minnesota?

Yes, in the Twin Cities and in greater Minnesota. Our team is in Long Beach, California, two hours behind Minnesota, and we meet clients by video at times that suit your workday.

How do Minnesota winters affect search demand?

They concentrate it. The first heavy snow and the first deep cold snap bring sudden jumps in searches for snow removal, furnace repair, frozen pipes and remote starters, so we make sure those pages rank before November, then shift attention to spring services like roofing and landscaping.

How long does SEO take to work?

Most sites see movement within three to six months; competitive searches take longer. Your roadmap sets expectations search by search, so you know what to expect and when.

How much do SEO services cost?

It depends on how competitive your market is and how much work your site needs. Tell us your monthly budget on the form and we’ll show you what it can realistically achieve.

Will you work on my existing website?

Yes. We work on WordPress, ecommerce platforms and custom-built sites. If the site itself is holding you back, our developers can fix it or rebuild it.

What do you need from me to get started?

Access to your website, Google Search Console and Google Analytics, and a 30-minute call about your customers, services and goals.
