SEO Services FAQs

Twelve straight answers before you ever get on a call.

Why hourly instead of a retainer?+

Because retainers hide effort and hourly exposes it. You approve estimates, see task-level logs, and pay for delivery, not for a subscription.

How many hours does SEO need monthly?+

Most SMB programs run 15 to 40 hours a month depending on competition. We recommend a number after the audit and you adjust it any time.

Do you build links?+

We earn placements through digital PR and genuinely useful assets. No networks, no bought links, nothing that trades your domain for a shortcut.

Can you fix a traffic drop?+

Yes, that is scoped forensic work: change history, index coverage, SERP shifts, and log analysis until the cause is named, then the recovery plan.

Do you follow Google guidelines?+

Strictly. Everything we ship survives manual review, and we document decisions so your next hire inherits a clean history.

Which industries do you know?+

Seventy-two and counting, from SaaS to trades. The industries page lists them, and the FAQ answer is always the same: the method transfers, the entity research is bespoke.

How does the $45/hr rate work?+

Every service bills at the same senior rate. You approve a written hour estimate before any work starts, and every invoice ships with a task-level time log. No packages, no minimum retainers, no lock-in contracts.

Who actually does the work?+

Senior specialists with 8 or more years in search, supported by our AI search research team. We never hand delivery to juniors or outsource it; the person on your kickoff call is the person in your account.

How fast can you start?+

Most engagements kick off within 2 business days of an approved estimate. Urgent fixes, penalties, migrations, or launch deadlines, can start same-day on request.

Do you work with clients in my region?+

Yes. We serve the US, UK, Australia, and the Middle East daily, with overlapping working hours and reporting aligned to your time zone.

What reporting do I get?+

A monthly report your leadership can actually read: rankings, answer-box and AI citation coverage, work completed with hours, and the plan for the next cycle. Dashboards on request.

Can I pause or stop at any time?+

Yes. Because billing is hourly against approved estimates, there is nothing to cancel. Finish the current approved scope, or pause it, and you owe nothing further.
