There’s much thought put into this in the corporate world but for the smaller up and comings – who’s making up the quotes. Professionals chat back and forth over “fair pricing” all day. Some seo companies choose to show the client upfront pricing, while others opt to have you call for a quote.
Reading other seo sites will give you some idea but which prices are really in sync with what customers are willing to pay. Being a grand salesperson may help you too, but this post is about average seo company pricing. Keep your clients coming back. Don’t scare them away from sticker shock at the first site of the proposal.

These are the Results from 3 web sites visited:
Seo Company A offers 3 groups you could purchase of 30, 80 and 150 keywords.
Seo Company A -
Initial Pricing:
- $2,500 – $4,000
- $4,000 – $6,000
- $6,000 – $10,000
Monthly Pricing:
- $350
- $500
- $800 – $2,000
Perceptions of these prices: Average business pricing.
Seo Company B has a more corporate feel and charges 3 options.
Initial Pricing:
- $3950.00
- $4700.00
- Starting at $9950
Monthly Pricing:
- Call to find out.
- Call to find out.
- Call to find out.
Perceptions of these prices: Higher business pricing. Could be because the offerings are different than Company A. They could have higher end clientele. We have seen seo companies charge from $30000 – $100000 USD too, which would make this company look cheap in their pricing.
Seo Company 3 (wanted to see if you’re paying attention)
Simple solution with simple options. Site analysis and monthly pricing with a 6 month contract.
Initial Pricing:
- $350 – $500 for analysis
Monthly Pricing:
- $750
- $1150
- $1500
Perceptions of these prices: Affordable seo pricing. Overhead is usually lower than larger companies like Company A and B.
We would hire the company we thought could do the best for our company. Price can always play it’s part.
Be prepared to answer questions from the client:
- How experienced are you?
- What if you fail? Do you offer a guarantee?
- Can I get on the first page of Google?
- When will I see results?
- I saw a site offering seo for $299. Why are your prices so high?
If you’re wondering what we charge – we’re Seo Company 3. We don’t accept all seo clients because we can only handle 7-8 clients at a time.
*At the time of this post there’s only room for 2 more clients.

It’s not often that an article I find on the web becomes a valuable asset, but this one is just that. The information here is important, easy to understand, and up to date. Kudos to a writer I’ll be following in the future.

It’d have been nice if you’ve done the services comparison as well .. though i know some companies charge more for “nothing”.

Yes, I began doing that when writing the post. It did turn out some of the items were a little fluff to a seasoned seo person. They were actual services and do make a difference but things you don’t need to list. Some were extra charges too.
You’re both right about showing the results. We tell clients how and if we can help them reach their goals before taking on the project.
Giving them the best results is also our concern when providing seo services.
