Terms of Use

These terms govern your use of topofsearch.com. By visiting this site, you agree to these terms. If something here does not work for you, please reach out before using the site.

Who these terms apply to

These terms apply to anyone who visits topofsearch.com. Top of Search LLC is a marketing consultancy based in Wilmington, North Carolina. References to "we," "us," and "our" throughout this document refer to Top of Search LLC.

What this site is for

topofsearch.com is the primary brand and contact site for Top of Search LLC. It exists to introduce the firm, explain how we work, and give prospective clients a way to get in touch and book a consultation.

The content here is informational. It is not a substitute for personalized marketing advice, and visiting this site does not create a client relationship. A client relationship begins only when both parties sign a written agreement.

Our content

All content on this site, including text, frameworks, graphics, and the Top of Search name and brand marks, is owned by Top of Search LLC unless otherwise noted.

You are welcome to:

• Read and share our content for personal or professional learning;
• Quote or reference our work with clear attribution to Top of Search;
• Share links to our pages.

You may not:

• Reproduce or republish our content in full without written permission;
• Resell, repackage, or present our work as your own;
• Use our content to train AI models without explicit written consent;
• Use our name, logo, or brand marks without permission.

If you want to use our content in a way not covered here, reach out. We are usually open to it.

Inquiries and booking

This site lets you contact us and book a consultation. When you submit an inquiry or booking request, you agree to provide accurate information, and you understand that we may follow up by email about your request.

Booking a consultation does not by itself create a client engagement or guarantee that we will take on your project. Any engagement is governed by a separate written agreement between you and Top of Search LLC, and that agreement, not this page, sets the terms of the work, scope, fees, and deliverables.

No guarantees

We share what we know based on real experience working with local businesses. But marketing results depend on a lot of factors outside our control, and nothing on this site should be read as a promise of specific results.

We do our best to keep content accurate and up to date, especially in a space that moves as fast as AI search. If you spot something outdated or incorrect, please let us know.

Links to other sites

We sometimes link to third-party tools, platforms, or articles we find useful, including our content site at topofsearchmarketing.com and our newsletter, Cited. Links to external sites we do not control are not endorsements, and we are not responsible for the content or practices of those sites. Use your own judgment when following links from our site.

Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, Top of Search LLC is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of this site or its content. Our total liability for any claim related to this site is limited to the amount you paid us directly, if anything.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina. Any disputes will be handled in the appropriate courts of New Hanover County, North Carolina.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the effective date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site after changes are posted means you accept the updated terms.
