How Much Should SEO Services Cost?

If I had a dollar for every time I was asked this question, I’d have no need of selling SEO services in Kitchener and area!

Sure there are plenty of SEO service providers that have SEO package 1, 2 and 3 to choose from, but are they exactly what you need?  First off, are they even true SEO packages or they just a small slice of what Search Engine Optimization actually encompasses?

Advanced Web Solutions tends to build specific packages based on a client’s specific needs, business goals and budget.  We can build you a kick-butt package that will all but ensure that your competition will never see the #1 ranking in Google or other search engine.  That may be cost prohibitive depending on the competitive landscape of your industry.  It may also not be worth it due to the fact that your average sale will net you mere pennies – unless you can so significantly increase your organic traffic that pennies make a material difference.

The simple answer to “how much should SEO cost?”, can be pushed back to the old adage of, you get what you pay for unfortunately.

On each webpage that Google catalogues/indexes, they consider 200+ factors to determine where it should be ranked for a particular query.  Can you honestly say that a quick once over, or a $100/mth package will get you the results that you need to justify the investment in SEO?  On the other hand, a $3000/mth package may be overkill.

The true lies somewhere in between.

On the other hand, inexpensive SEO generally means that short-cuts are being taken in order to provide you a cheap price.  ‘Short-cuts’ in the world of search engine optimization generally mean that your site will be penalized at some point, if it wasn’t flagged initially.  Sad but 100% true.

Since AWS (Advanced Web Solutions) is located in the Kitchener-Waterloo area, we are always able to have a face to face conversation about your goals and build a custom SEO package to fit your business needs and your fiscal requirements.
