SEO that compounds, not SEO that bills

Every SEO agency promises rankings. The honest ones tell you which keywords, on what timeline, with what content investment. That is the conversation we have before you sign anything.

What the retainer includes

• Technical audit and fixes. Crawl, index, schema, Core Web Vitals, internal linking, and redirect cleanup, repeated each quarter.
• Keyword and competitor research. The actual queries your buyers run, prioritized by volume, intent, and difficulty.
• On-page optimization. Titles, descriptions, headings, copy, schema, and internal links revised across the live site.
• Monthly content. Two to six articles a month, written by humans, structured for both readers and AI overviews.
• Earned links. Digital PR, podcast bookings, and partnership outreach. No private blog networks, no buying links.
• Reporting. One monthly dashboard plus a 30 minute review call. Traffic, rankings, leads attributed to organic.

What we measure

Vanity keyword positions are easy to game. We report on:

• Non-branded organic sessions and their conversion rate
• Top 10 commercial keyword positions in your category
• Pages indexed and pages earning impressions
• Leads and revenue attributed to organic in your CRM

What it costs

Retainers start at $1,800 per month on a three month initial period, then month to month. The exact monthly is scoped to your keyword universe, competition, and content workload.

What we will not do

• Sell you a $499 "SEO package" with template deliverables
• Bury you in a 40-page PDF instead of a real conversation
• Promise top three rankings inside 90 days (nobody honest can)

If you already have an SEO partner, ask them what they expect to add this quarter and why. If you cannot get a clear answer, send us a note.
