Straight answers, before the call
Pricing, timelines, compliance, and AI search, answered the way we would in a meeting. If your question isn't here, the free audit is the fastest way to get a specific answer about your firm.
How much does SEO for financial advisors cost?
Our engagements start at $3,500 a month and scale with two things: the size of your firm and the number of locations you need to rank. Every engagement covers SEO end to end, so the service list never changes the price. Full detail is on the pricing page. We publish it because you'd ask anyway.
How long does SEO take to work?
Rankings typically start moving in 2–3 months. Consistent lead flow takes 12–18 months. We set that expectation before you sign, because the most common failure mode in advisor SEO is quitting right before the compounding starts.
Do you guarantee first-page rankings?
No, and be cautious of anyone who does. Google and the AI platforms don't sell guarantees. We offer named case studies, real numbers, and monthly reporting that shows exactly what the work is producing.
Do you work with businesses outside of financial advice?
No. We've worked exclusively with financial advisors and RIA firms since 2010. One industry means we already know your compliance constraints, your prospects' search behavior, and what actually moves rankings in advisory markets.
What is AI SEO (AEO/GEO), and do we really need it?
AI SEO, also called answer engine optimization (AEO) or generative engine optimization (GEO), makes your firm citable by ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google's AI Overviews. A growing share of prospects now ask AI platforms for advisor recommendations, and the firms structured to be cited get recommended. It's included in how we build, not sold as an add-on gimmick.
Is the content compliant?
Our content workflow is built for a regulated industry: compliance-aware drafting, documentation, and your firm's review before anything publishes. Review generation follows the SEC marketing rule, with the records your CCO needs.
Who actually does the work?
Senior people, which is why the client list is deliberately restricted. Founded by Brent, who holds an MBA in Financial Planning, AdvisorRankings keeps engagements small enough that your account is never handed to a junior team.
What does the free SEO audit include?
It baselines your rankings, technical SEO health, and AI visibility across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and AI Overviews, so the first conversation starts from evidence rather than a pitch. Audits are reviewed by a person, not generated by a script, and take a couple of business days.
Who owns AdvisorRankings?
WealthReach owns AdvisorRankings and provides all website design, development, and hosting through its Living Sites product. One team is accountable for your strategy, your site, and your search results.
