Canned Spinach is a Cincinnati design and marketing agency less than two hours down I-71, and we help Columbus organizations stand out with websites that convert, brands that look like market leaders, and search strategies built for both Google and AI answers.

Yes. Ranking in a market as competitive as Columbus takes a site built on clean technical foundations, pages that each target one clear search intent, a strong Google Business Profile, and steady content that answers real customer questions. That same structure is what gets you cited in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews. Our SEO and AI search retainers start at $2,000 per month. Nobody can honestly guarantee rankings, so we commit to the work, the reporting, and straight answers instead.

Yes. Public-sector and education websites carry requirements many agencies underestimate: WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility, plain-language content, multiple audiences, and purchasing rules. We design and build to those standards, scope projects clearly so they fit your procurement process, and train your team to manage the site after launch. Canned Spinach is also an NMSDC-certified minority business enterprise.
