★ Transparent, Fixed-Tier Pricing

Pricing You Can Actually Read — Priced Per Lead, Not Per Report

Home-service SEO and digital marketing in three clear tiers. No vague retainers, no surprise invoices — you always know exactly what you pay and what it buys. Full ownership. No lock-in.

Free technical + local SEO audit first. No card, no obligation.

The Short Answer

How much does SEO & digital marketing cost?

Most home-service businesses invest roughly $750–$3,000+ per month. Where you land is set by scope and market competition — not agency markup. Four things move the number:

Scope of work

How many services you rank for, plus any content, links, PPC or technical work on top of local SEO.

Market competition

Dense metros with entrenched competitors take more content and links than smaller markets.

Cities & locations

One city, one trade is leaner than multi-location, multi-trade coverage.

Current site state

A healthy site starts faster; technical debt needs more foundation work up front.

Not sure where you fall? The free audit tells you before you ever talk budget.


The ROI Case

Why the price pays for itself

Paid ads rent leads at a flat, high rate. SEO builds an asset you own — so cost per lead compounds down every month while ads stay stuck.

FAQs

Pricing questions, answered

Is there a long-term contract?
No lock-in. We work month to month once the initial engagement is underway. SEO does need a few months of consistent work to compound, but we earn your business every month rather than trapping you in a long contract.
Do you offer custom plans?
Yes. Starter, Growth and Scale cover most home-service businesses, but multi-location and multi-trade operators often need a tailored scope. After your free audit we build a custom plan around your markets, services and goals.
What’s the minimum commitment?
SEO typically needs 3 to 6 months to show meaningful movement — that’s how search works, not a contract term. Foundations land in the first 1–3 months, early wins by 3–6, and compounding growth from 6–12 months, with progress you can track from week one.
Do I own the work you produce?
Yes — full ownership, always. Your website, content, pages, rankings and reporting assets belong to you. If we ever part ways, you keep everything we built.
Do you charge setup fees?
There’s no separate setup fee on standard plans — onboarding, the initial audit and your strategy are included. Larger builds such as a new website, programmatic page systems or a full technical rebuild are quoted separately and always agreed up front.
