Frequently Asked Questions About SEO

  • How much does SEO cost?

    Every SEO campaign begins with a comprehensive audit and strategy phase. Our SEO audits typically start at $1,500+ depending on the size and complexity of your website.

    Ongoing SEO services generally range from $1,000–$2,500+ per month depending on your industry, competition, goals, and service area.

    We do not offer one-size-fits-all SEO packages. Every strategy is customized to your business.

  • Why do I need an SEO audit?

    An SEO audit helps us understand where your website currently stands and identify opportunities for improvement.

    We review your website's technical health, content, local search presence, competitors, keyword opportunities, backlink profile, and overall search visibility.

    The audit forms the foundation of your SEO strategy and allows us to make data-driven recommendations rather than guesswork.

  • How long does SEO take?

    SEO is a long-term marketing strategy.

    While some improvements can be seen within the first few months, meaningful growth often takes 6–12 months or longer depending on your industry, competition, and website history.

    Businesses that invest consistently over time typically see the strongest results.

  • Do you require a contract?

    Yes. Our minimum SEO engagement is 12 months.

    Search engine optimization is not a one-time service. Search algorithms, competitors, consumer behaviour, and AI-powered search experiences are constantly evolving.

    A long-term partnership allows us to build momentum, measure performance, and make strategic adjustments as search changes.

  • Do you guarantee rankings?

    No reputable SEO agency can guarantee rankings.

    Google uses hundreds of ranking factors and updates its algorithms regularly.

    What we can guarantee is that we will implement industry best practices, follow current search guidelines, provide transparent reporting, and continually optimize your website based on performance data.

  • Is SEO still worth it with AI search and Google AI Overviews?

    Absolutely.

    Search is changing, but people still need information, products, and services.

    Today's SEO focuses not only on traditional Google rankings but also on improving visibility within AI-powered search experiences such as Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, voice search, and local search results.

    Businesses that invest in quality content, authority, and technical optimization are often best positioned for both traditional and AI-driven search.

    These reviews allow us to evaluate what's working, identify opportunities, discuss market changes, and adjust your strategy based on performance and business goals.

    We believe in transparency and ensuring clients understand exactly what work is being completed and why.

  • Can you help if another company has been doing our SEO?

    Yes.

    Many clients come to us after working with another agency or attempting SEO internally.
