Mockingbird is the boutique option in legal SEO — smaller than Rankings.io, more focused than Consultwebs, and positioned as a law-firm-only agency that actually understands legal SEO rather than treating it as one vertical among many. Their "no one-size-fits-all" philosophy means custom strategies per firm, not cookie-cutter packages. At $4,000-$8,000/month, they sit in the mid-market between budget SEO shops and Rankings.io's $10K+ premium tier. For law firms that want hands-on SEO expertise without enterprise pricing, Mockingbird is a legitimate option. The limitation: they do SEO. They do not do everything else.
TL;DR
Mockingbird provides quality legal SEO at mid-market agency pricing ($4K-$8K/month). The Webevo platform provides AI-powered SEO + voice AI + reputation + ads + CRM at a fraction of the cost. Mockingbird covers one channel well. Webevo covers five.
What Mockingbird Actually Does Well
Mockingbird's boutique approach has genuine advantages.
Law-Firm-Only Focus: Mockingbird works exclusively with law firms — not law firms plus dentists plus HVAC companies. This means every strategy, every piece of content, and every technical optimization is built with legal industry knowledge.
Custom Strategy Per Firm: No standard packages or tiered plans. Mockingbird evaluates each firm's market, competition, practice areas, and growth goals before creating a custom strategy. This consultative approach produces strategies tailored to specific competitive landscapes.
Mid-Market Pricing: At $4,000-$8,000/month, Mockingbird offers legal SEO expertise at roughly half the cost of Rankings.io ($10K+/month) while delivering more specialized attention than budget SEO agencies charging $1,000-$2,000/month.
