SEO Pricing

SEO Costs Made Simple.

Honest, transparent SEO prices for UK small businesses. From one-off audits to ongoing SEO packages, choose the level of help that matches where you are. No long contracts, no surprise invoices.

What you’re actually paying for

SEO costs in the UK vary wildly — from £100 a month for thin, automated services up to £10,000+ for enterprise-level campaigns. Most small businesses sit somewhere between £300 and £1,500 a month, depending on competitiveness, scope, and the amount of content to be produced.

What makes the price worth paying is the work itself: technical fixes that help Google understand your site, content that answers what your customers actually search for, citations and links that build your authority, and the time spent reviewing what’s working and adjusting what isn’t.

We’ve structured our SEO services into four distinct levels so you only pay for what you genuinely need — whether that’s a one-off SEO audit to see where you stand, monthly monitoring to track progress, or a full SEO package with active ongoing work.

SEO & Website Audits

Start here if you want a clear, honest picture of your current SEO performance. One-off, fixed price, no commitment to ongoing work afterwards.

Local SEO & Google Business

If your customers are local, your Google Business Profile often decides whether they find you or your competitors. There are three ways to sort it: do it yourself, have it sorted once, or have it looked after every month. No long contracts either way.

On-Going Care

For businesses that want to stay visible, not just get set up once. Google rewards profiles that stay active, so the Care Plan keeps yours working month after month.

The Care Plan runs on a 3-month minimum, then rolls monthly with one month’s notice. That is far lighter than a full SEO package, because looking after a profile is steady, ongoing work rather than a big campaign.

LOCAL VISIBILITY CARE PLAN

£149a month

For local businesses that want their Google presence kept active and working.

  • Google Business Profile kept accurate and optimised
  • 2 Google posts published each month

Honest Expectations

SEO is a long-term investment, not a quick fix. We don’t promise overnight rankings, and we won’t use shortcuts that risk getting your site penalised. We do promise transparent work, honest communication, and steady progress.

Common Questions

The questions we hear most often about SEO pricing, what’s involved, and what to expect.

SEO costs in the UK vary widely. At the budget end, automated services start from around £100 a month — but they typically deliver thin or templated work. Most experienced UK providers serving small businesses sit between £300 and £1,500 a month for ongoing SEO packages, with mid-market businesses paying £1,500 to £3,000 and competitive or national campaigns starting at £3,000+ a month.

Our SEO packages start at £395 a month for Starter, £695 for Growth, and £1,195 for Pro — covering the full range of what most UK small and medium businesses need.

An SEO audit is a one-off, point-in-time review of your website’s SEO health. You get a written report telling you what’s working, what’s broken, and what needs prioritising — but no ongoing work is done. It’s ideal if you want to know where you stand, or you have an in-house team who’ll act on the findings.

An SEO package is an ongoing monthly retainer where we actively do the work — fixing issues, optimising pages, building citations, writing content, and monitoring progress. The audit is included as your starting point, and we build from there.

Honestly? Because SEO doesn’t work in two weeks, and we’d rather set realistic expectations up front than take your money and have you cancel before the work has had time to deliver. Most clients see meaningful ranking movement somewhere between three and six months in. Anything that promises faster results is either lying to you or using shortcuts that will eventually get your site penalised.

After the initial six months, the agreement continues on a rolling monthly basis with just one month’s written notice and no long-term lock-in.

I’m glad you asked — the honest answer: no. No reliable SEO provider can guarantee a #1 ranking (Google’s algorithm is complex and always changing). What I can guarantee is that I’ll do everything I can with proven methods, keep you informed, and aim for sustainable improvements. If anyone promises #1, be very cautious.

For local SEO and Google Business Profile work, you can often see meaningful movement within 4 to 8 weeks. For broader SEO packages, expect three to six months before rankings start shifting noticeably, and 6 to 12 months for the full impact to be visible. SEO is a compound investment — every month’s work builds on the last.

No. Our SEO services are available regardless of where your website is hosted. That said, when we host your site we have direct access to make technical SEO changes quickly, which can speed up the work; clients on our hosting also benefit from our standard hosted-client hourly rate (£80/hour) for any out-of-package work.

Yes. You can move up a tier (Starter to Growth, or Growth to Pro) at any time, with the change taking effect from your next billing cycle. Moving down a tier is possible after your initial six-month term, with one month’s written notice.
