We're a B2B SaaS company. Does Contact Studios mention specific industries they serve or avoid, or do they claim to work with any business regardless of niche?

What the pages say

Contact Studios does not explicitly mention specific industries it serves or avoids, nor does it claim to work with any business regardless of niche. Its homepage and booking page showcase testimonials from individual brands—including RBC Ventures, HERB, Botany Farms, Delta Munchies, and Alexsei—but they do not categorize these clients by industry or state any niche or industry strategy.

The fix

Create an 'Industries' or 'Who We Serve' page that explicitly states target industries, any verticals avoided, and whether the agency works with any B2B SaaS company regardless of niche.

04If I sign up for their LLM SEO service, how do they report on brand visibility inside AI answers? Do they share a specific metric or dashboard tracking citation frequency by platform?llm-seoHedges+2 pts est.

If I sign up for their LLM SEO service, how do they report on brand visibility inside AI answers? Do they share a specific metric or dashboard tracking citation frequency by platform?

What the pages say

Contact promotes a separate tool called Mentions (mentions.so) where you can “See how your brand ranks across LLMs like ChatGPT” with “real data” and a dashboard screenshot, but the chunks do not specify whether it tracks citation frequency by platform or detail the exact metrics and AI platforms covered.

The fix

Clarify what metrics the Mentions dashboard tracks (e.g., citation frequency, mention count, visibility score) and explicitly list the AI platforms monitored (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, etc.).

They mention 'LLM SEO' as a service. I'm specifically trying to optimize for Perplexity and ChatGPT citations. Do they disclose which AI platforms their LLM SEO strategy targets, or is it generic 'AI search'?

What the pages say

They partially disclose specific platforms. The site explicitly names ChatGPT as a target ("new 'search' ecosystems like ChatGPT" and "ranks across LLMs like ChatGPT") and references Google's "AI Overviews," but it does not mention Perplexity specifically. Much of the framing remains generic ("LLMs," "AI search").

The fix

Explicitly list the specific AI platforms and LLMs targeted (e.g., ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, Claude) rather than relying on generic terms like "LLMs" or single examples.

I need to know how they measure success. Do they guarantee specific ranking improvements or traffic thresholds in their SEO engagements, or do they explicitly avoid guarantees?

What the pages say

Contact defines and tracks SEO KPIs and correlates efforts to website traffic and sales, and creates monthly performance reports for clients. Published case studies and testimonials cite specific outcomes such as growing a shop from 30,000 to 150,000 monthly visitors, generating $85,000 in monthly revenue, and achieving 8,800 top-three ranking positions. However, none of the retrieved chunks state whether Contact guarantees specific ranking improvements or traffic thresholds, nor do they explicitly disclaim such guarantees.

The fix

Add a clear statement on the SEO services or pricing page explaining whether Contact offers performance guarantees, traffic/ranking thresholds, or explicitly avoids them.

My legal team requires SOC 2 compliance from vendors. Does Contact Studios list any specific security certifications or compliance standards they maintain for client data?

What the pages say

Contact Studios does not list SOC 2 compliance or any specific security certifications (such as ISO 27001) in the retrieved content. Their Privacy Policy states a commitment to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), and Quebec's Act Respecting the Protection of Personal Information in the Private Sector for personal data processing.

The fix

Add a dedicated security or trust page that lists specific security certifications and compliance standards such as SOC 2 Type II or ISO 27001, alongside the existing privacy policy commitments.

My company uses Webflow, and I need to know if Contact Studios has experience with Webflow-specific SEO issues before I book a call. Do they list specific platforms they specialize in?

What the pages say

Contact Studios offers general SEO and technical SEO services, but the retrieved chunks do not mention Webflow-specific SEO experience or list any specific platforms they specialize in.

The fix

Add a capabilities or platforms page that lists specific CMSs and platforms (e.g., Webflow, WordPress, Shopify) the agency has experience with, or include platform specializations in the services section.

Do they require clients to migrate to their preferred project management stack, or will they work within our existing Asana/Monday.com setup? I need to know their collaboration workflow requirements.

What the pages say

Contact Studios uses Asana internally for editorial calendar management and provides clients with a proprietary Content Dashboard to track deliverables and chat with strategists, but the chunks do not state whether they require clients to migrate to a specific PM stack or if they work within existing client Asana or Monday.com setups.

The fix

Add a Process or FAQ section clarifying whether Contact Studios requires clients to use their Content Dashboard exclusively or if they accommodate existing client PM tools like Asana or Monday.com.

When they do technical SEO, do they provide Jira tickets or developer-ready specs, or is the deliverable a PDF audit? I need to know the exact format of their technical handoffs.

What the pages say

Contact mentions providing "technical fixes" as part of its SEO services, but none of the retrieved chunks specify whether these are delivered as Jira tickets, developer-ready specs, or PDF audits.

The fix

Add a Technical SEO process or deliverables page that explicitly states the exact format of technical handoffs (e.g., Jira tickets, developer-ready specs, PDF audit, or dashboard entries).

I need video content for YouTube SEO, not just social clips. Does Contact Studios specify whether their video production includes long-form YouTube strategy and optimization, or is it only short-form content?

What the pages say

The retrieved chunks do not specify whether Contact Studios' video production includes long-form YouTube strategy and optimization or is limited to short-form content. Testimonials mention 'scroll-stopping videos' and 'great SEO and video content created,' and one testimonial cites launching a YouTube channel that gained '17,984,620 views and 27,600 subscribers within 30 days,' but no chunk explicitly distinguishes between long-form YouTube strategy/optimization and short-form clips.

The fix

Add a clear service description or FAQ that explicitly states whether video production covers long-form YouTube strategy, optimization, and channel management, or if it is focused on short-form social clips.

What the pages already answer cleanly

4 of 15. Answered with enough specificity for a buyer to act on. This is the bar the queue above is chasing.

technicalAnswered

We need technical SEO fixes implemented, not just an audit. Does Contact Studios actually make code changes on client sites, or do they only deliver recommendations for our dev team?

What the pages say

Contact Studios indicates they perform implementation rather than only delivering recommendations. Their 'How to get started' process states: 'We’ll start implementing technical SEO, publishing content, and optimizing for algorithms and LLMs.'

content-creationAnswered

For their content creation service, do they handle the actual publishing and formatting inside our CMS, or do they only deliver Google Docs and leave the uploading to us?

What the pages say

They handle the actual publishing and formatting inside your CMS. Their Editor role includes uploading and editing content on WordPress, Shopify, and Webflow sites, and overseeing content production from outlining to publication. Their homepage also states they ‘automatically publish your SEO-optimized content to your blog’ and that they ‘write, edit and upload content.’

toolsAnswered

I saw they have an SEO tools page. Are these tools free for anyone to use, exclusive to clients, or part of a paid subscription?

What the pages say

Contact.so explicitly describes its offerings as "free tools" that visitors can explore to improve SEO and content strategy. The SEO ROI Calculator, for example, is presented as a free tool with a "Use Tool" link. There is no indication that the tools are exclusive to clients or part of a paid subscription, though the page does include a "Join Waitlist" button.

operationsAnswered

I see they're hiring an SEO Strategist. Does that indicate they outsource strategy to contractors, or is all strategy done in-house by employees? I prefer agencies that don't white-label.

What the pages say

The SEO Strategist position is explicitly listed as a “Contract” role, indicating they hire individual contractors to develop and execute client SEO strategies directly under the Contact Studios brand. The job description states the strategist will “own and optimize the SEO strategies for our clients,” and the main site refers to clients having “your SEO Strategist” and chatting “with your SEO Strategist,” which suggests the work is performed by direct contractors rather than white-labeled through an external agency.
