Related to our editorial mission, ATC's SEO offering looks to validate and amplify reputable businesses who are underrepresented in search results across search engines (e.g. Google, Bing), large language models (e.g. ChatGPT, Gemini), and YouTube.

SEO is a marketing practice that helps an entity become more visible through organic (i.e. unpaid) search. This means getting a website and other digital assets (e.g. Google Business Profiles, YouTube videos) to appear at the top of relevant search results by earning the trust of search platforms.
We love SEO because it is a deeply data-driven practice that rewards people for providing thorough, accurate, and useful information to online searchers on any given topic. Businesses that provide such information are recommended to potential customers by Google and other search platforms at a higher rate than businesses with undeveloped SEO.
Our SEO work is informed by over a decade of content marketing, B2B, and B2C SEO experience. Below is a non-exhaustive list of our services:

The following are select case studies demonstrating the value of our SEO work in representing and growing reputable local businesses.


A Minnesota law firm with several suburban branches had trouble breaking into the larger Minneapolis market.
After refreshing their website's keyword strategy and optimizing the homepage, key service pages, and multiple GBPs, the firm saw a 33 percent year-over-year increase in Contact Us button clicks on their homepage driven by several new #1 Google search rankings for target keywords such as "business mediation lawyer minneapolis" and "workplace investigation lawyer minneapolis."

A leading alternative mental health care provider with minimal SEO experience sought growth from organic search for essential services including ketamine infusion therapy, psychiatry, and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).
An overhaul of website content and GBP optimization aligned with the keyword strategy saw business for the clinic surge. Clicks from Google searches to the website more than doubled year-over-year, seeing their therapists go from underutilized to booked out for weeks. New #1 rankings and Local Pack visibility for valuable search phrases such as "psychiatrist eau claire," "tms minneapolis," and "ketamine therapy minneapolis" were directly responsible for the increases in both visibility and appointments.
The growth has been sustained for over a year, with the business now in position to acquire a regional competitor. The clinic will now be expanding their SEO work with us into AI search optimization.
