Get My MatchesWhy Trust Clutch
At Clutch, we believe trust is the foundation of every business relationship. Our mission is to help buyers make confident, data-backed decisions informed by real client experiences.
Every review on Clutch undergoes a rigorous, human-led verification process to make sure it’s valid. Our team of specialists confirms the identity of each reviewer, ensures the project is legitimate, and only publishes reviews that meet our strict criteria.
Verification doesn’t stop at the point of publication. Our Trust & Safety team routinely audits older reviews against our guidelines. When reviews fall short of our standards, we remove them.
We evaluate service providers using a structured methodology that combines:
- In-depth client interviews and ratings
- Comprehensive project details
- Market presence
- Portfolio examples and industry recognition
This data powers tools like the Leaders Matrix, which helps you compare agencies directly. Our research team curates rankings by weighing verified reviews most heavily, so the most trusted and experienced providers rise to the top.
Using this unique combination of verified client feedback and provider-supplied insights, Clutch distills the most important details into clear, digestible summaries so you have everything you need to make confident, informed decisions quickly.
We take fraud seriously. Providers who violate our guidelines may face lower rankings, restricted visibility, or removal from the platform altogether.
Clutch’s commitment to transparency is ongoing. We’re constantly refining our systems to protect the integrity of reviews and support you in finding the right agency.

Top PPC Agencies in New York City
Hiring local offers three key advantages:
- Media & trend insight – NYC agencies live inside one of the world’s largest advertising markets, giving them a pulse on emerging consumer behaviors.
- Face-to-face collaboration – Quick subway ride meetings make strategy sessions and creative reviews more efficient.
- Access to specialized talent – From Wall Street fintech to SoHo fashion, agencies often build vertical expertise that maps directly to your niche.
Prices vary by scope, platform, and agency pedigree:
- Hourly rates: $125–$250
- Monthly management retainers: $3,000–$15,000 for mid-market accounts
- Percentage-of-ad-spend models: 10%–20% of monthly media budgets Boutique shops sometimes offer project-based audits starting around $5,000, while enterprise campaigns exceeding $100k in monthly media spend command higher retainers.
Given the city’s economic diversity, agencies commonly support:
- Finance & fintech
- Fashion and luxury retail
- Healthcare & wellness
- Real estate and proptech
- Media, entertainment, and sports
- Hospitality, travel, and restaurants
Many also run specialized campaigns for nonprofits, higher education, and growing tech startups.
Start by defining KPIs—lead volume, CAC, ROAS, or market expansion. Then:
- Review Clutch case studies for brands similar to yours
- Ask about platform certifications (Google Premier Partner, Microsoft Ads Select, etc.)
- Confirm who will manage your account day-to-day—senior strategists or junior analysts
- Request a sample report to gauge transparency and data depth
- Compare contract terms, including cancellation clauses and IP ownership
Watch for:
- Guaranteed rankings or unrealistic ROAS promises
- Lack of access to ad accounts or data siloing
- Overreliance on automated bids without human oversight
- One-size-fits-all landing pages that ignore brand voice
- Minimal communication cadence (e.g., monthly calls only) despite high fees
