Solar
Homeowners and business owners now ask AI platforms which solar installers to trust, what a system should cost, and how incentives work in their state. Our independent analysts studied the agencies that have had the most success at solar GEO and AEO, presented below.
What to look for
| Buying criteria | Ask how the agency gets an installer recommended in each service area, and how it keeps pricing, financing, and incentive details accurate. |
|---|---|
| Proof that matters | Ask for solar or home-improvement clients and a dated result in consultations, signed contracts, or AI recommendations for installer terms. |
| Common mismatch | A lead-resale network that sells the same homeowner to competing installers, or a national shop with no local listings work. |
| Typical engagement | Expect a monthly retainer covering service-area pages, reviews, and incentive guides, with consultation tracking by source. |

How We Ranked These Agencies
- We started with the 4 GEO agencies in our directory that have a serious solar practice.
- To qualify, a firm had to sell GEO and show solar on its own site: a solar service page, work for a solar client, or solar listed among the industries it serves.
- Each firm received a fit score out of 100. Solar depth is worth 20 points, solar proof 20, GEO depth 25, and three GEO and AEO editorial scores from our agency reviews 35: lead generation (14), local and multi-location (12), and measurement (9).
- Solar proof ranks solar case studies that name the client first, then solar case studies without client names, then solar clients shown by logo, name, or testimonial, then a solar service page alone.
- All four qualifying firms are listed. Ties went to the firm with the higher average across all eight editorial scores.
