Small Milan SEO and web marketing studio working since 1999
About cdlab
cdlab is a small search and web marketing studio in Milan. Its office is on Piazzale Giovanni dalle Bande Nere, in the city's western districts. The business was founded in 1999 and has a team of between two and nine people (some listings say under 50). Its leaders are not named publicly. That makes it a long-running independent practice rather than a large agency.
The studio's service list is broad for its size. It covers organic search, Google Ads, website builds, social media, email campaigns and web analytics. It also offers recovery from Google penalties and clean-up after harmful link attacks. Its service mix splits effort evenly across SEO, social media, web and UX design, custom software and mobile apps, with a smaller share for e-commerce builds. For a clinic, the useful parts are the search and analytics skills plus the ability to diagnose a site that has lost rankings.
Published proof is thin but specific. For plastics firm DPlast, an engagement from January 2022 to July 2023 cost under USD 10,000 and brought a 30% rise in sales, all from organic traffic. In his Clutch review, the DPlast CEO adds that the work finished ahead of schedule, that contact by email and video call was frequent, and that the cost was well below competing quotes. The studio's clients include LA7, Assolombarda and Borgenni. Google reviews praise their professionalism, punctuality and SEO results.
No dental practices, clinics or healthcare clients appear in their work, and there is no page aimed at dentists. A practice considering cdlab would be hiring a general SEO studio and briefing it on dental search terms, local listings and patient enquiry tracking. The studio's small size could suit a single private practice in Milan that wants direct contact with the people doing the work. Practices that expect dental-specific templates or ready-made patient acquisition systems will need to look elsewhere.
On costs, hourly rates run USD 25 to 49, averaging near USD 49, with a minimum project size of USD 1,000. Some listings give a minimum budget of USD 1,000 to 10,000. These rates sit at the lower end for Western European agencies. Contract length, reporting cadence and onboarding steps are not published, so ask about process and client references before signing.
