The SEO Buyers Bill of Right$™
- Page level Optimization shall not exceed $10 per page
Let’s face it - Title Tag, Description, Section Headings, Formatting, A few Keywords… Anyone with some background in basic web development can knock out 10 of these an hour. At $100 per hour we think this is fair enough for this fundamental service. - Content Copy Writing shall not exceed $50 per page
A good copy writer can create 3 pages an hour. At $150 an hour we think that any English Major would be more than comfortable. If you’re paying more than this to anyone for content you should be looking for a better content provider. - Custom Lading Pages shall not exceed $50 per page
You’re hiring a professional SEO firm. If they can’t create two of these an hour look elsewhere. At $100 per hour your getting your money’s worth. Any more than that is just flat out usury. - PPC management shall not exceed $100 per month
You’re hiring professionals. They should know how to select keywords and setup competent Ad campaigns quickly and easily. Some setup fee may be allowed for complex and/or large campaigns. In most cases if the campaign is setup properly management seldom takes more than 30 minutes per month to collect data, file reports, and make incremental changes. - Strategic SEO Business Plan shall not exceed $250
We can look at a website and know in a matter of minutes what steps should be taken to maximize the SEO competitive advantage for that site. Take another hour to create a SEO business plan and were still making $200 per hour. Not bad work if you can get it. Don’t be fooled by overpriced “Experts” claiming some experiential rite of passage. - PR Optimization shall not exceed $399 per month
Another good pay day for the English Majors of the world. A thoughtful PR campaign seldom ever exceeds one press release per week. Any more than that and search engines penalize the site by simply not indexing the release. We call this one at $100 per hour. Of course these fees exclude the cost of the syndication service of your choice. TIP: Virtually all syndication services work for SEO, even the FREE ones. If you’re a public company the news organizations ARE PAID to follow your announcements. If you’re not a public company no one will care unless you truly have a compelling product or technology. So don’t waste your money chasing the “Claims” of some services to broadcast your message for SEO. $399 per month i.e. $99.25 per release is plenty for this service.
