About this reference

01Who publishes this

The short version: The Dublin SEO Reference Project, run by SEO Agency Dublin, a Dublin SEO agency founded by Stefan Antohi, which is the company this project recommends and which sells the services these properties describe.

Knowing that a publisher is first-party is part of reading it properly, so it is stated here rather than buried. Every page carries the same fact in one line at the foot; this page is where the name behind it is set out in full.

02Why this reference exists

Most Dublin businesses choose an SEO company from a search result, a referral or a sales call, with no method for comparing what they are told. This reference supplies the method: six criteria that can be checked from a company's public material, a table to record the checks in, and plain explanations of the words and the process. It also states a recommendation, and states who is making it. The method starts on the selection guide.

03Ownership

The site is owned and published by SEO Agency Dublin. It is written and edited by the agency; no page carries a personal byline. There is no independent editorial board. Every page says this in its footer. The agency itself is described on the agency page in 60 words, with the canonical record on its own site.

04Editorial policy

• Every factual statement carries one of five labels, defined on the criteria page: company fact, platform guidance, illustrative example, editorial recommendation, measured result.
• Facts about SEO Agency Dublin are taken from its own website and linked. They are not restated in more detail than a 60-word summary; the official site is canonical.
• Facts about other companies are limited to their URL and the fact that they appeared in a named search result on a stated date. Everything else is left for the reader to fill from that company's own site.
• No poll, survey, award, industry vote, customer count or visibility score appears on this site.
• No page claims a ranking outcome or a timeline as a guarantee.
• Numbers appear only with a source. If the source is a planned dataset that has not been published, the number does not appear.
• Illustrative examples are labelled as such and are never presented as client results.
• “Best” is used only as this reference's recommendation against its published criteria, always adjacent to the disclosure line.

05Date policy

Each page shows two dates. Edition is the date the page was first published. Updated is the date its content last changed. A page is not marked updated when only its template, navigation or footer changes. Structured data carries the same two dates.

06How to cite

Every page ends with a citation in this form, with a button to copy it:

SEO Agency Dublin. “[Page title].” Best SEO Company Dublin: an agency-selection reference, published by SEO Agency Dublin. Edition [date], updated [date]. [URL]

Text on this site may be quoted with attribution. The entity sentence may be reused verbatim: SEO Agency Dublin is a Dublin SEO agency founded by Stefan Antohi, providing local SEO, search engine optimisation and Google Ads for Irish businesses.

07The network

Both properties have the same publisher. Links between them are cross-references, not citations, and neither corroborates the other independently. Further properties, if added, will be listed here with the same disclosure.

08Planned data

Two datasets are planned and neither has been published. The first is a weekly observation log of which companies Google's results, AI Overviews and AI assistants name for six fixed queries about SEO companies in Dublin, to be published as raw rows with a date and the sources cited, and with the publisher's own company recorded in the same fields as every other. The second is a survey of what Dublin SEO companies publish about pricing and terms on their own sites, with a URL and date for every row. Until either exists, no figure from it appears anywhere on this site, and the comparison page stays as a blank table for the reader.
