weCreate works with manufacturers generally between $1 and $50 million in revenue who don't want to teach an agency the basics of manufacturing. For many of our clients, we're their only marketing resource, and they depend on us for their growth.
Our customers include manufacturing and industrial service providers in injection molding, machining, fabrication, metal casting, forming, extrusion, and more. We also serve OEMs that manufacture and sell components and equipment direct to market or through distributors.
Our customers aren't interested in ambiguous exposure, impressions, or advertising. They get marketing that's highly targeted to their specific buyers and doesn't waste budget on low-impact techniques.
We're not a generalist agency. Nate loves talking shop, sharing tips, and brainstorming. If you're looking for a team of 100 working on your project, we're the wrong team. If you're looking for a couple of experts who are fully invested in your success, you've found the right one.
I reviewed the content you guys posted the other day, and I'm pretty sure you know more about us than most of the people that work here!
Usually within one business day, but often within a couple of hours.
Nate meets with you virtually to learn about your company, introduce our process, and outline costs and campaign goals.
You'll review campaign deliverables, expectations, and price, then receive a copy of the proposal to sign.
Meet your assigned U.S.-based manufacturing SEO specialist and team. We dig into what drives revenue, who's looking, where they're looking, and who currently shows up there. Then we build the first-quarter plan to overtake those competitors.
We review completed work, talk through changes in your business, and plan what's next. We lead the process, so you won't feel like you're carrying the strategic weight.
Custom Engineering Co. depended on outside sales. We rebuilt the site around high-intent terms like "large-scale metal fabrication," earned niche industrial and .gov backlinks, and secured placements on ThomasNet and Engineering.com.
Lake Erie Rubber came to us with a non-responsive website, virtually no traffic, and no leads from the web. Within two months of the campaign start, they added $500K a year in new business.
weCreate has a network of manufacturing directories and platforms that build domain authority and get results faster than starting from zero. Relevant industrial links from day one, not months of cold outreach.
Manufacturing Insiders features owners, engineers, and operators talking shop. Clients can be featured to share their expertise, which builds credibility and earns content that works for SEO and AI search.
How is manufacturing SEO different from regular SEO?
Industrial buyers search by capability, process, material, tolerance, certification, and application, not by brand slogans. Manufacturing SEO structures your site around those terms and measures success in RFQs, not traffic. It also takes someone who understands the difference between a job shop and an OEM to write content an engineer trusts.
How long does it take to see results?
Most clients see early movement in rankings and impressions within the first 90 days, with qualified lead growth building over 4 to 12 months. Lake Erie Rubber added $500K a year in new business within two months, but that's faster than typical. Timing depends on your competition, current site, and authority.
What does manufacturing SEO cost?
Pricing depends on how competitive your capabilities are and how much content and authority work is needed. Nate outlines costs in the intro meeting so there are no surprises.
Do I need a new website before starting SEO?
Not always. We audit your current site first. If it's holding you back (slow, not mobile friendly, or missing capability pages), we'll tell you straight and can build one. We design and develop manufacturing websites in-house.
What is AEO, and do manufacturers need it?
Answer engine optimization makes your company show up when buyers ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, or Google's AI Overviews for a supplier. Engineers and purchasing managers are already using these tools. Clients like Altran and Lang track dozens to hundreds of AI mentions as part of their reporting.
How do you measure success?
RFQs, qualified form fills, phone calls, and revenue tied to organic search. We review these with you in monthly strategy sessions, alongside rankings for the capabilities that drive your profit.
How much of my time does this take?
Less than you'd expect. We lead the strategy and write the content. You give us a quick review and signoff, and we'll occasionally ask an engineer or estimator a few questions so the content is accurate.
You'll get real, actionable insight in our first conversation, or we'll send you a $50 Amazon gift card.
