SEO Cost Guide

How SEO is priced, and what you actually pay for.

We do not list fixed prices, because a small local site and a 50,000-page store need very different work. This guide explains how our packages are structured, the things that change the cost, and how to get a quote that fits your site.

What affects the cost of SEO

These are the things we look at when we put a quote together.

Size of the site

A 20-page local site and a 50,000-page store need very different amounts of technical and content work.

How competitive your market is

Some searches have a few weak competitors. Others have national brands with years of content and links behind them.

Where the site is starting from

A site with crawl errors, slow templates or thin pages needs fixing before new work can pay off.

How many locations or markets

Each city, country or language usually needs its own pages, profiles and links.

Content you need

Writing new service pages, product copy or guides takes time, especially when an expert has to review it.

Link building

Earning links from relevant sites takes outreach. Some publishers charge editorial fees, which we always disclose.

Who makes the changes

We can implement fixes ourselves or work with your developers. Access and approval speed affect the plan.

Your platform

Shopify, WordPress, WooCommerce, Magento and custom builds each have their own limits and fixes.

How to compare SEO quotes

When you compare agencies, the monthly figure on its own tells you very little. Ask these questions instead:

  • What exactly will be done each month, and who will do it?
  • Will the agency make the changes, or only send recommendations?
  • How is progress reported? Look for enquiries, sales and qualified traffic, not just rankings.
  • Who owns the content, accounts and links if you stop working together?
  • How are links earned, and are any paid placements disclosed?
  • Is anyone promising guaranteed first-page rankings? No honest agency can.

Our own answers are on the Why WhiteLinko page, and the our process page shows how a project runs month by month.

SEO cost FAQs

How much does SEO cost?

It depends on your site, market and goals. Our SEO Audit, Growth SEO and Enterprise SEO packages are priced on request, and we quote after a free audit.

Why do you not list fixed prices?

Every site is different. A small local site and a 50,000-page store need very different work. We quote after a free audit so you only pay for what you need.

Is there a minimum contract?

Ongoing SEO is usually planned in three-month blocks, because that is the minimum time to see meaningful movement. Ask us about terms for your project.

Can I pay only for results?

For e-commerce brands, our Growth Partnership charges a maintenance fee only until it is recovered from the sales we generate, then moves to revenue share.

Are one-off projects available?

Yes. Audits, migrations and technical fixes can be one-off projects.

Do you guarantee first-page rankings?

No honest agency can. We commit to the work, transparent reporting and the metrics that matter: qualified traffic, enquiries and sales.

What does the free audit include?

The free audit is a focused review of your biggest opportunities. A full paid audit goes deeper across every page template, links and competitors.
