Pricing
Honest numbers, on a public page

One-off projects
Not ready for a retainer? Fair.
Some problems are projects, not subscriptions. These are fixed-scope, fixed-price.
Everything in the free audit, then much further: full crawl, content inventory, link forensics, 90-day roadmap. Credited back if you start a retainer.
Redirect mapping, staging QA, launch protocol and 90 days of monitoring. Cheap insurance against the classic redesign traffic cliff.
Forensic diagnosis, cleanup and reconsideration handling. Starts with a 48-hour assessment so you know what you’re dealing with.
Full demand landscape, intent classification and a keyword-to-URL map your team can execute without us.
Structured-data library, llms.txt, AI-crawler policy and citation-ready formatting on your key pages.
Suspension recovery or a ground-up profile rebuild, with a 90-day posting and review plan included.
Questions, answered
Pricing questions, answered straight
Why do prices vary so much between agencies?
Because 'SEO' describes everything from a $200 link-package reseller to a full strategy team. Cheap retainers are cheap because almost nothing happens inside them — we've audited enough of their aftermath to say that plainly. Our pricing maps to actual hours of senior work, and every month you can see where those hours went.
Can we start small and scale up?
That's the normal path. Many clients start with Local Growth or a one-off project, watch the first quarter's numbers, then step up. SEO budgets should follow evidence, not faith.
Is there a setup fee or long contract?
No setup fee. Three months minimum to start — less than that and neither of us can judge anything honestly — then month to month. We keep clients by performing.
What if my market is more competitive than these tiers assume?
Then we'll tell you before you sign, not after. Legal in a major US metro and national ecommerce genuinely cost more to win than the entry tier covers — quoting you a number that can't work would just waste your quarter and our reputation.
Do you offer one-time projects instead of retainers?
Yes: audits, migrations, penalty recovery, keyword research and technical sprints all work as fixed-scope projects. Retainers exist because search rewards consistency, but plenty of good work fits in a project box.
