MKH - Marketing KUHM-HOLLNER

What MKH - Marketing KUHM-HOLLNER does

MKH - Marketing KUHM-HOLLNER is a French B2B digital marketing agency specializing in search engine optimization (SEO), paid search advertising (SEA / Google Ads), and adjacent web marketing services. Founded in 2008 and incorporated as a SAS in 2015, the company is headquartered in Nordheim, Alsace (approximately 20 km from Strasbourg) and operates with a small in-house team of 4 SEO/SEA experts supported by 6 specialists in partner roles. It serves both enterprise clients — including Würth, Tryba, Hager, 01net and Gîtes de France — and small and medium businesses in the Alsace and Grand Est regions, with no disclosed activity outside France. The agency is a certified Google Partner since 2014, with three Google AdWords-certified specialists and a dedicated international agency manager relationship providing early access to Google Ads features.

The core product portfolio covers SEO (natural referencing with keyword strategy, on-site and off-site optimization, netlinking), SEA (Google Ads campaign creation, management, and Quality Score optimization), SEO audits (technical, editorial, structural, popularity), SEO/SEA consulting and training, SEO-optimized website redesign and creation (including e-commerce and landing pages), local SEO via Google My Business, SEO copywriting, and a newer GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) service aimed at improving client citation by large language models such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Copilot and Mistral AI. MKH has also published a WordPress plugin (Old Posts Highlighter) used to recycle older posts in site RSS feeds and front pages. Underlying technology is methodology-driven rather than platform-driven: deliverables are produced through SEO/SEA processes and standard tooling (Google Ads, Google Analytics, WordPress) rather than proprietary software infrastructure.

The business model is a hybrid of subscription-style recurring retainers (SEO and SEA management from 300 EUR/month), project-based professional services (audits from 750 EUR one-time, consulting at 840 EUR/day, website creation/refonte), and one-off content production. The agency sells directly to clients through consultation, customized proposals, and ongoing account management, supplemented by a website-driven inquiry flow, an online appointment scheduler, and earned-media activity including a 2019 Le Figaro interview with CEO Cyril KUHM. The company is privately held by founders Cyril KUHM (President) and Marine KUHM-HOLLNER (Office Manager and Associate), with no external investors, no disclosed funding, no M&A activity, and no parent organization.
