Why SEO is worth the monthly investment
Compounds over time
Unlike ads that stop the moment you stop paying, SEO rankings stick around. The longer you invest, the stronger your position becomes.
Highly targeted traffic
People who find you via Google are actively looking for what you offer. They're warm leads — far more likely to convert than someone who saw an ad.
Lower cost-per-lead over time
As your rankings improve, your cost per lead from organic search decreases while paid ad costs typically increase. SEO becomes more valuable the longer you do it.
Pricing FAQs
Is there a minimum contract length?
I ask for a minimum 3-month commitment on all SEO retainers — not because I want to lock you in, but because SEO genuinely needs that time to show meaningful results. After 3 months, it's a rolling monthly contract with 30 days' notice.
What if I want to pause or cancel?
After the initial 3-month period, you can pause or cancel with 30 days' written notice. I don't believe in holding clients to long contracts when the results aren't there.
Do you work on WordPress / Webflow / Squarespace sites?
Yes. I've worked with almost every major platform. Some technical SEO changes are easier on certain platforms than others — I'll tell you upfront if there are any platform-related limitations.
How do you report on results?
You'll receive a monthly report covering keyword rankings, organic traffic, and — most importantly — organic enquiries and conversions. All tracked properly through Google Analytics and Search Console.
Can I add more keywords as I grow?
Absolutely. Plans can be upgraded or keywords added at any point. I'll review your keyword list quarterly as standard and recommend additions based on new opportunities.
