How SEO is priced

SEO Pricing Models

Monthly retainer

The most common model for ongoing SEO. A fixed monthly fee covers continuous strategy, content, technical work, and reporting. Best for compounding, long-term growth.

Project-based

A one-time fee for a defined deliverable, like an SEO audit, a migration, or a site launch. Best when you need a specific fix, not an ongoing program.

Hourly / consulting

Pay for senior expertise by the hour or engagement, guidance, audits, and direction for teams that execute in-house. Best for advisory support.

What drives the price

What Affects the Cost of SEO

Competition & keywords

More competitive markets and higher-value keywords take more work to win.

Site size & tech debt

Larger sites and heavier technical debt mean more to audit, fix, and maintain.

Your goals & timeline

Aggressive growth targets or tight timelines require more resources per month.

Scope of services

Technical, content, links, local, and AI search each add to the scope and price.

Local vs. national vs. enterprise

A single local business costs far less than a national or multi-location brand.

In-house support

How much your team can implement vs. how much we own changes the effort.

SEO Pricing Questions

For US businesses, ongoing SEO typically runs from a few hundred to several thousand dollars a month. Our plans start at $750/mo (Starter), $1,750/mo (Growth), and $3,500/mo (Dominate), with custom enterprise pricing above that. The right number depends on your competition, site size, goals, and scope, an audit lets us quote precisely.

SEO isn't one service, it spans technical fixes, content, link building, local, and AI search, and the work scales with your market's competitiveness and your site's size. A local plumber and a national SaaS need very different levels of investment, which is why prices range so widely.

Most SEO is an ongoing monthly retainer because rankings compound over time and require continuous work. Some deliverables, like a one-time audit or a migration, are project-based. We offer retainer, project, and hourly options depending on what you need.

No. Our monthly plans are month-to-month with no long-term contract, so you can adjust or cancel as your needs change. Custom enterprise engagements are scoped with terms that fit the program.

Higher tiers add more target keywords, content volume, link building, full GEO/AI-search programs, and dedicated senior strategists. Enterprise adds programmatic SEO at scale, a dedicated team, and executive reporting. See the plan comparison above for specifics.
