512 SEO companies across 5 live markets and 16 researched countries — each tied to where it actually operates, scored on facts you can verify, never on who pays us.
Ranked by Hub Score v2: operating resilience, delivery capability, sector evidence, commercial clarity and capacity. Research confidence is shown separately.

Every listing lives under its own country path — like /gb/london/ — so you only see agencies genuinely based in the market you are buying in.
The deepest agency market in the world and the most fragmented: national enterprise shops, regional generalists and single-vertical specialists all compete for the same queries.
Structurally the closest market to the US, concentrated in Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary and Montreal — and the market where bilingual obligations get skipped most often.
A dense, digital-PR-led agency market. London dominates headcount, but Manchester, Leeds, Bristol and Nottingham hold some of the strongest technical and link-earning teams.
Europe's largest search economy and the market that punishes translated-not-localised content hardest.
Google-dominant, but with strong local publishers and comparison sites holding the commercial SERP.
The bridge market for Spanish-language expansion — and the one most often collapsed into a single /es/ folder for all of Latin America.
High English proficiency makes teams skip Dutch entirely — while local competitors take the commercial Dutch queries.
High-value English market with a small, tightly contested SERP: a handful of Sydney and Melbourne agencies own most commercial terms.
Large, high-trust market where Yahoo! Japan still carries meaningful share alongside Google.
A two-engine market: Naver holds the category-defining queries while Google's share grows year on year.
Enormous English-language search volume plus rapidly growing multilingual and voice queries.
A separate discipline rather than a variant of Google SEO: different index, different hosting reality, different rules.
A mobile-first search market centred on Nairobi, with strong local intent, WhatsApp-led enquiries and growing demand for English and Kiswahili content across East Africa.
Genuinely bilingual commercial search, with an expatriate-heavy audience querying in both Arabic and English.
