Methodology

How we built this SEO rate card

Every row above is a real output of our SEO Cost Calculator. The model has two pillars:

1. Industry tier sets the band

Three industries get a high-tier band of $1,800 – $3,000 per month: casino, adult, and cryptocurrency. The reason is operational, not arbitrary — restricted ad networks, banned platforms, and regulatory caution mean every link, every piece of content, and every outreach email costs more time. Every other industry sits in the standard band of $1,200 – $1,900 per month.

2. Scope variables slide the price within the band

Fourteen variables move the monthly fee up or down inside the industry band: page count, current ranking baseline, past SEO work, target audience reach, competition level, competitor audit, paid campaigns (PPC, Meta), separate PR budget, social promotion, video SEO, monthly budget hint, results timing, design enhancement, and goal mix (lead-gen vs sales vs traffic vs app downloads vs reviews vs followers). Add-ons (PPC management, Meta Ads management, video production) are line-itemised separately so they don’t inflate the SEO base.

3. Why publish a rate card at all?

Most SEO agencies hide their pricing behind a sales call. We don’t. The rate card lets you sanity-check any quote you receive (ours or a competitor’s), match your scope to a row, and decide whether to engage before spending discovery-call time. The trade-off is honesty over urgency — we’d rather close a well-fit account than push a poor-fit one through a fast-pitch funnel.

Last calibrated: May&5b59Z;2026. The rate card is reviewed quarterly against the last 50 quotes our sales team has issued and updated when the median proposal drifts more than 10% from any published row.

FAQ

SEO rate card — frequently asked questions

The questions buyers ask most often when comparing this SEO rate card against agency proposals.

What is an SEO rate card?

An SEO rate card is a published price list showing what an SEO agency charges for different scopes of work. It functions like an SEO marketing advertising rate card — you pick the row that matches your industry and scope, see the monthly fee, recommended commitment, and total contract value. Our SEO rate card on this page lists 25 scenarios derived directly from our internal pricing model, so the numbers match what our sales team would quote on a discovery call.

How is this SEO marketing rate card calculated?

Each row uses the same logic as our SEO Cost Calculator: industry tier (Casino / Adult / Crypto sit in $1,800–$3,000; everything else in $1,200–$1,900) plus a normalised score across 14 scope variables (page count, competition, audience reach, past SEO, design, audit, paid campaigns, PR, social, video, budget, results timing, goals). Add-ons (PPC, Meta, video production) are line-itemised separately so they don't inflate the SEO base.

Are these SEO rate card prices final?

No — this is a rate card, not a binding quote. Treat it as a strong opening anchor that lands within ±15% of our final proposal in 87% of cases. Edge cases (M&A migrations, multi-language sites with 5+ markets, custom dashboards, penalty recovery) are quoted separately. Run the SEO Cost Calculator or contact us for a tightened number.

Why does industry change the SEO rate card price?

Restricted niches (casino, adult, crypto) need specialised link-building, compliance-aware content, and outreach to platforms most agencies decline. Higher floor, higher ceiling. Standard verticals share the same delivery framework with lower outreach cost. The rate card reflects that two-tier reality.

Do you offer a separate SEO advertising rate card?

Paid ads (Google Ads / Meta Ads / LinkedIn) are quoted on top of the SEO retainer as separate line items. PPC management typically runs $500–$1,500 per month per channel; Meta Ads similar. Media spend is budgeted by you and paid directly to Google / Meta. Our role is strategy, creative, landing pages, and ongoing management. Use the SEO Cost Calculator’s "paid campaigns" step to layer those costs onto any rate card row.

What's the difference between an SEO rate card and an SEO pricing page?

A pricing page tends to bundle services into a few named tiers (Starter, Growth, Enterprise). A rate card unbundles it — one line per realistic scope, with the actual monthly figure, commitment, and total contract value. We publish both: tier cards live on the white-label SEO page; the granular rate card is here.

Can I use this rate card to compare against other SEO agencies?

Yes, that's one of its main uses. If a competing agency quotes you 50%+ above the matching rate card row, ask what justifies the premium (specialist team, vertical expertise, non-standard deliverables). If a competing agency quotes you 50%+ below, ask which corners are being cut (offshored content, bulk link building, no dedicated AM).

How do I get a custom SEO quote from this rate card?

What is a white-label SEO rate card?

A white-label SEO rate card is the wholesale price an agency pays to resell SEO services under its own brand. It differs from the standard rate card in three ways: (1) volume discount based on how many active client accounts you run with us (10–26% off depending on tier), (2) white-label deliverables — reports, dashboards, sales decks all carry your logo not ours, and (3) dedicated account management so a single point of contact handles all your accounts. Our white-label SEO rate card on this page lists 9 typical agency-portfolio scenarios.

How does white-label SEO pricing work for agencies?

White-label pricing is per client × volume discount × your tier. We start from the standard SEO rate card price for each of your clients (based on their industry + scope), then apply your tier’s discount: Starter (3–5 clients) gets 10–15% off, Growth (6–10 clients) gets 16–20% off, and Enterprise (11+ clients) gets 22–26% off. You bill your end-clients at full retail (or whatever margin you want) and pay us the discounted wholesale rate. There’s a one-time setup fee per partnership ranging from $500 to $2,000 depending on tier.
