Overview

About seoplus+

seoplus+ is an Ottawa digital marketing agency built around SEO and AI search, with paid ads, content, digital PR, social, email and web design alongside. It works with multi-location, ecommerce, SaaS and acquisitive businesses across Canada and the US.

seoplus+ is an Ottawa SEO agency founded in 2012 by Eddy Abounehme, now CEO, and Brock Murray, now COO. It runs from a head office on Exhibition Way and sits in Clutch’s 10 to 49 employee band. Leadership also includes a VP of operations, a VP of marketing and a director of search, and the firm says it serves clients across Canada and the United States.

Search is the centre of the business. The team handles local, national, ecommerce and SaaS SEO and has folded generative engine optimization into that offer. Around it sit paid ads on Google, Microsoft and Meta, content marketing, digital PR, social and short-form video, email, and web design with WordPress hosting and maintenance. The agency has carved out two less common niches: marketing for multi-location brands and for companies growing through acquisitions, where many sites and listings have to be consolidated.

Published case studies include lead growth for Ottawa insurance broker Gifford Carr, paid campaigns for builder Cardel Homes and B2B SEO plus digital PR for recruiting firm Talentlab, though they do not list figures. Independent feedback is stronger: 53 Clutch reviews average 4.9, and its Google profile shows 4.8 from 75 reviews. Clutch reviewers in education, software, finance, legal and dental praise technical knowledge, honesty and detailed reporting.

For buyers comparing Ottawa SEO companies, seoplus+ offers a deep search team that can also run PPC, PR and web without handing off to partners. The caveats come from its own reviews: one client called it a bit expensive, another saw costs grow on a website project, and one felt SEO gains arrived slowly. Hourly rates in the $150 to $199 band sit above many local competitors.

Editor’s take

seoplus+ suits Canadian companies that want an SEO-first agency with paid, PR and web capacity in-house. Very small budgets and buyers who want a creative or brand-led agency should look elsewhere.
