"Tory and the GDC team are some of the smartest, most professional and thoughtful people I have ever worked with. They have the unique ability to marry incredible research skills and data analysis with a deep contextual understanding of what a company needs from SEO at the particular stage of their lifecycle. I hired TGDC while I was leading content at Spark, a young DTC charcoal grill company, and we needed guidance as to where we could win in the crowded and established grill market. Through their thorough keyword and competitive analysis, TGDC uncovered an exciting greenfield for us to shine in an undeveloped niche, giving us a clear and focused path to follow. TGDC is at the top of my referral list for any company building out or focusing their content program. I cannot recommend them highly enough!"

“We hired the Gray Dot Company to conduct an audit of our site and help us identify key optimization opportunities following a larger site migration initiative.
After seeing non-brand traffic remain relatively flat over the previous 12 months, as well as ranking declines amongst key queries, we knew we needed to dig deeper into some of the issues that were stalling what had been a prolonged period of organic traffic growth. The goals for the project were to execute a comprehensive audit, identifying any technical SEO issues and implementing a strong tactical plan for prioritization and execution.
Aside from the expertise they brought to the table, I was really wowed by the way in which they took that expertise and mapped it to the unique nuances of our site and business. Oftentimes, agencies and consultants will lean on a one-size-fits-all approach of blanket best practices, but that was far from the case with The Gray Dot Company. They took the time to understand the inherent opportunities and limitations that were distinct to our business, crafting their recommendations and approach accordingly.”

“In a very kind way, and after an extensive site audit, Tory informed me that 'if there was a checklist of things that could be wrong with our SEO strategy, we checked all of the boxes.' I very much appreciated her honesty and candor, but also her excitement toward helping us resolve our technical- and content-related SEO issues.
Over the last year, she has patiently worked with my institution to help us strategize practical SEO solutions, as we engage in a comprehensive website rebuild. This has come in the form of auditing, group training, and individualized consulting.
While her knowledge base is incredibly strong, she stands out in her ability to not only adapt her knowledge to our industry very quickly, but to effectively communicate complex concepts to a relatively inexperienced team. My entire team has grown as a result. I would highly recommend Tory to anyone, in any industry. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions!”

She integrates her keen insights and talents with healthy doses of humor and wit, which make her even more of a joy to work with. Do not hesitate to hire her. You won't be sorry!”

"Tory is one of the most professional and knowledgeable SEOs I’ve worked with. During my time at RepairClinic, Tory provided guidance on a wide range of SEO projects including large scale content updates and the creation of new sitemaps.
During those projects, she gave clear and concise instructions that made it easy for me to execute. I think what’s most impressive about Tory is her ability to remove any gray area from tough SEO questions. Her answers were always contextual and informative.
Tory knows Google Search Console, Chrome Dev Tools, and the Page Speed Insights tool better than anyone I’ve ever met. On one occasion, she discovered a javascript rendering issue that was creating a bunch of pages with 404 errors. Googlebot was crawling hundreds of thousands of these pages and the entire RepairClinic dev team was stumped. Tory was able to replicate the bug and help the devs solve the problem."

"I've utilized Gray Dot Co as consultants for an ongoing project for one of my clients and for my business as well. They're concise, sharp and have great ideas.
Generally speaking my experience with SEO "experts" has been lackluster with a lot of talk, but much less action. GDC is the exception to that experience. True expertise in their field. I'm not sure what the going rate in the industry is, but they are worth every penny of what they charge."

“We hired The Gray Dot Company to provide overall SEO services, but especially for a relaunch. We were targeting a whole new set of keywords and were prepared for a sharp decline in rankings.
Due to the diligent work of The Gray Dot team, we dipped only temporarily, and have consistently gained ranking. Our leads are of higher quality and we've increased our closing rate, and our profit margins. We feel like the Gray Dot team has our backs and is truly invested in our success.”

“The Gray Dot Company is the strongest SEO consulting firm we've ever partnered with. From minute details (interlinking blog posts) to big picture strategy (how to migrate websites), they filled every technical SEO need we had, and were able to clearly articulate what the heck they was doing and value it would deliver.
Not only were they quick on execution, but also they were up to date on all the latest best practices in a rapidly evolving field. They went above and beyond to provide all the support we needed, and they brought best-in-class insights, not black hat SEO tactics. Their work has set us up for great long-term growth.”

“Gray Dot has been instrumental in our success as a top mortgage lender. Without their guidance and advice in building our SEO architecture, we would not be ranking on page one of search as we are. We started contracting with Tory in 2017 when we re-branded our corporate image, which included a launch of the cherrycreekmortgage.com website. Since 2017 we have increased our search awareness by 517%. Ninety seven percent of our originators are on the first page of search and ninety five percent of our branches are in the top 5 listings.
Tory is an extreme professional and easily translates her ideas to successful campaign strategies. She is not only a contractor but a friend to our company. We enjoy our brainstorming sessions together and always seek her advice before moving on any large search projects. She uses the power of data to justify her advice and always has our best interests at heart.
We love working with Tory and would highly recommend her to any business.”
