Kashmer Interactive

With more than 20 years of combined search marketing experience, Kashmer Interactive has built a practice that extends well beyond traditional SEO. The Charlotte-based agency specializes in what they call "search marketing"—ensuring clients appear prominently across Google, Yahoo, ChatGPT Search, local maps, and emerging AI-powered search platforms. Founded in 2016, the company has grown to a team of 10-15 professionals who serve clients primarily outside the Carolinas region, with 75% of their work coming from national accounts. The agency's client roster spans a wide spectrum of business types and sizes. They've worked with multi-million dollar e-commerce stores, national brands, and local storefronts, serving industries from law firms and building manufacturers to plumbers and automotive businesses. This breadth of experience across midmarket, small business, and enterprise clients has shaped their service mix, which balances SEO (30% of their work), pay-per-click advertising (25%), and generative AI applications (15%) with content marketing, digital strategy, and social media. Kashmer Interactive maintains a perfect 5.0 rating on Clutch and has positioned itself at the intersection of traditional search marketing and emerging AI technologies. The team incorporates AI into both their internal processes and client implementations, with a particular focus on GEO (generative engine optimization) as search behavior shifts toward conversational and AI-driven platforms. Their approach reflects an understanding that search is no longer confined to a single channel but distributed across an expanding landscape of discovery points where consumers and businesses connect.
