Search Party + Rankable: Elevating SEO Services for Destination Marketers

by Seth Chalmers, Founder

At Search Party, we’ve always believed in leaning into our strengths. As a boutique agency, we’ve offered SEO services as a complementary sidekick—think of it as the Robin to our paid media Batman. Effective? Absolutely. But now it’s time for SEO to have a starring role.

We’re thrilled to announce a bold new move: a strategic partnership with Rankable, a powerhouse in the SEO world known for sharp strategies, deep technical chops, and—most importantly—a vibe that matches our own. With Rankable, we instantly gain a fully built-out SEO dream team, ready to roll.

Why Rankable?

Aside from being genuinely fun to work with (no, really), Rankable brings serious skills to the table. Their process is dialed, their people are top-tier, and their approach is aligned with how we do business—open, curious, and results-obsessed.

“At Rankable, we’re always looking to collaborate with teams who share our values and obsession with driving real results. Search Party is exactly that kind of partner. Together, we’re ready to help destinations take their organic presence to the next level.”
Walker John Moses, Founder of Rankable & Partywave

What This Means for Our Clients

With Search Party + Rankable, it’s a win-win for your marketing strategy:

  • Enhanced Organic Visibility: Because being on page 2 of Google is like being invisible (and not in the cool way).
  • Comprehensive SEO Audits: We'll find and fix the digital dust bunnies lurking in your website’s corners.
  • Strategic Content Development: Keyword-rich content your visitors—and search engines—will actually enjoy.
  • Integrated Marketing Strategies: Paid and organic, hand in hand like the best kind of marketing power couple.
  • Future-Proofed Search Strategy: The rise of AI-powered tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity means search is no longer just about Google rankings. Rankable helps ensure your content is structured, authoritative, and visible across traditional and emerging search experiences.

Yes, AI is changing how people discover information—but that doesn't mean your destination has to disappear into the algorithmic ether. Together, we’ll help you stay searchable, shareable, and show-up-able, no matter what screen your audience is searching on.
