Bookkeepers in the Gulfport-Biloxi Area, MS Compared (2026)

Key Takeaways

  • Too few firms reached 70% evidence coverage to rank (6 of 9, where a ranking needs 8), so the list is alphabetical.
  • Only 1 of 9 publishes a price or a starting price, while 8 say nothing about fees.
  • Compared with every firm we list, this group stands out on reporting: none of the 9 state how often reports arrive (0% against 21%).

Sources cited in this article: DNS check, Firm's own website, State business registry, and our published methodology.

22 profiles reviewed, 9 met the listing bar, 6 scored (evidence coverage of 70% or more). Fewer than 8 firms reached the scoring bar, so this is an unranked comparison. The bar is not lowered to make a ranking.

Firms on this page have offices in Gulfport (6), Biloxi (2) and Kiln (1). The page covers 30 towns and cities in the metro area, and a firm elsewhere in Mississippi appears on the state page.

What the evidence shows

Pricing

Pricing is where these sites say least: 8 of 9 are silent on fees, none say they quote each job, and 1 publish a figure. Figures the firms publish themselves, as their sites word them: To The Rescue Bookkeeping ("$ 475 /mo"). That's more open than Mississippi as a whole, where 3% publish a price. Ask for the fee and what it covers in writing before the first month starts.

Licenses and public records

Because Mississippi publishes its records as open data, the checks for this group found 6 with a business registration found in the state's registry data. The Mississippi CPA register isn't one we can search automatically, so a CPA license on these pages reads Not verified until someone checks the board by hand. Check any CPA claim yourself on the Mississippi State Board of Public Accountancy lookup.
