Based in New Orleans

A New Orleans digital marketing agency that turns attention into revenue.

Most agencies sell you disconnected activity: an SEO vendor chasing vanity traffic, a social team posting to fill a calendar, and a media buyer burning budget on weak creative. We run SEO, social media marketing, paid media, creative, and conversion as one connected system led by senior operators.

When Emerald is a fit

Built for teams with a real growth constraint.

Emerald works best with founder-led companies and lean marketing teams that do not want to babysit junior account coordinators. You get 20-year operator judgment and the execution crew to ship the work.

01

The channels are working separately.

Your SEO, social media, paid ads, creative, and website should not live in five different silos. We put them on one plan, one set of revenue priorities, and one scoreboard.

02

Your team needs senior depth.

You have smart people internally, but you need senior strategy, sharper creative direction, search engineering, or high-output production without hiring three full-time executives.

03

More activity is not the answer.

Publishing more posts or spending more on ads will not fix a leaky funnel. We find the exact bottleneck costing you buyers, fix it first, and compound what works.

Built in New Orleans. Trusted nationwide.

Emerald's New Orleans story started at Tulane, where our co-founders met before building an agency that now serves ambitious brands across the country from our Poydras Street office and beyond. The city still shapes how we operate: direct, inventive, relationship-driven, and allergic to corporate fluff.

Our New Orleans track record includes Egenberg Trial Lawyers, plus our team's earlier local work with Juan's Flying Burrito through Ember Networks. We bring that local fluency and national execution firepower to Louisiana companies ready to dominate their category.

Local SEO in New Orleans

SEO for New Orleans businesses.

Local SEO is a lot more than stuffing “New Orleans” into a footer. Whether you are fighting for the Google Map Pack in Orleans and Jefferson Parish or scaling across the Gulf South, we engineer your site to win the high-intent commercial searches where buyers are ready to hire.

Running a law firm in Louisiana? See how we rank law firms for high-value practice areas, not just their own firm name.

1. Local Map Pack & GBP dominance

Most local calls happen in the top three Google Maps results. We overhaul your Google Business Profile categories, local schema, citation footprint, and review velocity so you show up first when nearby buyers search on mobile.

2. Commercial pages built around Strike Zone keywords

We do not waste months writing generic blog posts. We target your Strike Zone keywords (the commercial terms where you already sit in positions 5 to 20) and build conversion-ready service and location pages that turn searchers into callers.

3. Attribution tied to real inquiries

Rankings and impressions do not pay your payroll. We separate branded traffic from true non-brand growth, filter out existing client calls, and track qualified phone calls, forms, bookings, and pipeline.

New Orleans marketing FAQ

New Orleans digital marketing FAQ.

What digital marketing services does Emerald offer in New Orleans?

We run full-funnel growth strategy, local and national SEO, AI search optimization (GEO), social media marketing, short-form video and creative production, paid search and paid social, conversion-focused web design, and custom AI workflow systems. We can serve as your complete outsourced marketing department or plug into your existing in-house team to own a specific channel.

How do your New Orleans SEO programs work?

We start by auditing your Google Search Console, your Google Business Profile, and the top three competitors taking your calls in the New Orleans metro. First we fix technical leaks and capture Strike Zone keywords sitting on page two, then we build out commercial service pages, local authority, and Digital PR links that compound month after month.

Do you handle social media marketing and content production for New Orleans brands?

Yes. Whether you are a hospitality group, a CPG food brand, or a B2B company, we handle the entire social loop: audience research, video hooks and scripts, creator coordination, editing, daily publishing, community management, and paid social amplification.

What types of companies are the best fit for Emerald?

We work best with ambitious founder-led businesses, law firms, hospitality and food brands, and mid-market marketing teams that care about unit economics. Our focused single-channel programs typically start at $3,500/month, and our multi-channel growth engagements generally run between $5,000 and $10,000/month.

Can Emerald work alongside our in-house marketing team?

Absolutely. Half of our engagements are built around giving an in-house marketing director or lean team the senior search engineering, creative production volume, or paid media management they do not have time to run internally.
