Spokane is Washington’s second-largest city, home to Gonzaga University, a growing health sciences corridor on the University District campus near the river, and a manufacturing and logistics base that stretches from the Spokane Valley industrial parks out toward the airport.
That size cuts both ways for a business owner trying to hire an SEO agency: there are more real, capable local shops to choose from, and there are also more national providers renting a Spokane zip code for the afternoon.
One agency put this second point better than we could. Acute SEO, which runs a Spokane-facing SEO page and lists law firm clients in the city, states outright on its own site that choosing an agency by proximity matters less than choosing one that understands the market, and that its own team works remotely rather than from an office here.
That’s a refreshingly direct thing for an agency to admit, and it’s worth remembering as you read the rest of this list: some of what shows up in a “Spokane SEO agency” search is genuinely from here, and some of it is a well-written page aimed at Spokane from somewhere else entirely. Neither is automatically the wrong choice, but you should know which one you’re calling.
This list is not ranked.
Order means nothing here.
What matters is whether the agency’s specialty, size, and client type line up with what you actually need, whether that’s a downtown creative shop that can shoot a brand video during Hoopfest weekend, or a specialist that treats SEO as the only channel worth running.
Every fact below comes from each company’s own site, LinkedIn, Google Business Profile, or a directory listing, current as of August 2026. Numbers presented as claims (client counts, revenue figures) are the company’s own, not independently verified.

Diakachimba (dee-ah-kah-CHEEM-bah)
Diakachimba is not a Spokane company, and it doesn’t claim to be.
It’s a North Idaho-based SEO specialist that works with local service businesses and lean B2B companies across the Inland Northwest, including Spokane and Spokane Valley, without pretending to have deep local roots it doesn’t have. That’s worth stating plainly given how many agencies on a “Spokane SEO” search borrow the city’s name without a real connection to it.
What Diakachimba does bring is a narrow focus: SEO only, no ads, no social, no branding retainer.
The engagement is not a fixed monthly package. Every client gets a plan scoped to their specific technical, content, and authority gaps, and custom-scoped SEO work is tied to what actually ships each month, whether that’s pages published for a Spokane Valley contractor or buyer-intent content for a B2B software company selling across the wider region.
Engagements start around $2,500 a month, run month-to-month, and the team working the account is senior throughout.
The tradeoff is the same one that applies to any specialist: a business that wants branding, print, or paid ads bundled with SEO under a single vendor will need to look at a full-service shop like Zipline or Kinetek instead.
Best for: Home service businesses and lean B2B companies in the Spokane and Spokane Valley area that want SEO run as its own discipline, on custom-scoped SEO work rather than a fixed retainer.
Zipline B2B Marketing
Zipline is one of the older, more established agencies in this market.
Founded in 2005 as Zipline Interactive, it operates out of West Central Spokane near the river, close to the Monroe Street corridor, and has since focused specifically on B2B demand generation: SEO, PPC, account-based marketing, and web design for companies selling to other businesses rather than consumers.
Its published client work includes REC Silicon, a regional polysilicon manufacturer, and a project with the Spokane Transit Authority to build digital signage for bus arrival times across the STA network.
Zipline is a fit for a company that wants SEO folded into a broader B2B marketing engine (ABM, PPC, content, web) run by one team, rather than a single-channel specialist. That breadth is also the tradeoff: SEO is one discipline among several here, not the sole focus the way it is for a specialist agency.
Best for: Established B2B and manufacturing companies that want SEO integrated with paid, account-based marketing, and web development under one Spokane-based team.
Kinetek Media
Kinetek is a creative and branding shop, not primarily an SEO agency, but it earns a place on this list because so many Spokane businesses land here first when they search for digital marketing help.
Founded in 2011 and based downtown (it has occupied space in the historic Bing Crosby Theater and now works out of the Holley Mason Building), Kinetek built its reputation on branding, content, and social media for food, hospitality, and event clients, including Spokane Hoopfest, KXLY Broadcast Group, and Rockwood Health System.
Technical SEO audits appear on its service list, but alongside photography, videography, and digital signage work, not as a dedicated practice.
If your priority is a distinct brand identity and content that performs on social media, with SEO handled as a secondary line item, Kinetek is a genuine, long-running local option. If SEO itself is the growth bottleneck, this is not where that gets solved.
Best for: Restaurants, event organizers, and hospitality brands that want strong creative and brand identity work from a downtown Spokane studio, with SEO as a smaller supporting piece.
20 Miles North
Run by Rob Jenkins out of North Spokane, 20 Miles North positions itself directly against the account-manager model: no handoffs, the person who builds your strategy is the person you talk to.
It combines web design, hosting, and full-stack SEO (technical, on-page, local, and increasingly AI search visibility) under one roof, serving Spokane, Spokane Valley, Liberty Lake, Cheney, Mead, Airway Heights, Millwood, and across the state line into Post Falls and Coeur d’Alene.
The agency is explicit that it builds and controls the website it also optimizes, which removes the coordination problem that comes up when an SEO vendor is working around a site built by someone else.
As a small, personally run operation, capacity is naturally more limited than at a larger firm, which matters if you need a high volume of content or multiple service lines managed at once.
Best for: Spokane-area small businesses that want one accountable local person handling both the website and the SEO, without a big-agency structure in between.
Tom Flann
Tom Flann runs a solo-to-small-team local SEO practice based in Spokane, with a Google Business Profile centered near the city and a client list that spans a $5 million outdoor living contractor, an orthodontics practice, a brewery, and a painting company, along with some clients outside the region who found him through his SEO commentary online.
Reviews consistently mention direct access to Tom himself, weekly progress updates, and fast turnarounds on Google Business Profile fixes.
The site states more than $7 million in value generated for local clients and 100-plus monthly leads for long-term accounts, both Flann’s own figures rather than independently verified numbers.
As a personal-brand operation, the same tradeoff applies here as with any solo operator: direct access to one expert, at the cost of the bench strength a larger team can offer.
Best for: Local Spokane and Spokane Valley businesses that want one experienced, personally accountable SEO practitioner and don’t need a large production team.
Which One Actually Fits You
- You need SEO run as its own discipline, not a line item inside a bigger retainer, for a home service or B2B company anywhere in the Spokane metro. Diakachimba is built specifically for this, on a custom-scoped SEO model rather than a fixed package.
- You want branding, content, and social media handled by a downtown creative team, with SEO as a secondary service. Kinetek fits, especially for food, hospitality, and event-driven businesses.
- You run a B2B or manufacturing company and want SEO integrated with paid media and account-based marketing under one established local agency. Zipline has the longest track record here, including work with regional manufacturers and public agencies like Spokane Transit.
- You want one accountable local person managing both your website and your SEO, without an account-manager layer. 20 Miles North and Tom Flann both fit this model. 20 Miles North also builds and hosts the site itself; Tom Flann leans more into local SEO and Google Business Profile work on top of an existing site.
- You are evaluating a national-sounding “Spokane SEO” provider and can’t tell if they’re actually here. Ask directly where the team sits and who you’ll be talking to month to month. Acute SEO’s own site is a good example of an agency that answers that question honestly, even though the honest answer is “not Spokane.”
A dental practice on the South Hill and a B2B software company selling into the Inland Northwest and beyond should not default to the same agency just because both searched “SEO Spokane” and landed on the same page. Match the specialty to what you actually sell.
