How much does SEO cost per month in the US?+
Local SEO is $799/month and Growth SEO is $1,499/month. US SEO agencies typically charge $2,500–$7,500/month for the same deliverables, usually on a twelve-month contract. Ours are month-to-month with 30 days' notice — if we're not earning it, you leave, and the content and technical work already shipped stays yours.
How long before I see results?+
Google Business Profile and map-pack improvements often show inside 30–90 days. Competitive organic keywords usually take 4–6 months to move meaningfully. Anyone promising page one in 30 days is lying to you.
Do you guarantee first-page rankings?+
No, and no honest agency does — Google's ranking systems aren't ours to control. What we do guarantee is transparent work logs, real implemented fixes rather than a list of suggestions, and monthly reporting you can verify yourself in Search Console.
What exactly is local SEO and do I need it?+
Local SEO is what gets you into the Google map results and "near me" searches for your city. If customers come to you physically — a clinic, restaurant, salon, store, contractor — it's usually the highest-ROI SEO you can buy. If you sell online nationwide, Growth SEO fits better.
Do you actually make the fixes or just send a report?+
We make them. Reports without implementation are why most businesses feel burned by SEO. Give us access and we do the technical work, the on-page changes and the content ourselves.
Will my business show up in AI Overviews and ChatGPT answers?+
That's the work, and no one can promise the outcome. What we can do is the things that demonstrably make a page citable: answer the question in the first paragraph rather than the fifth, mark up entities, prices, FAQs and reviews in schema, keep facts stated plainly with a date on them, and get you named on the third-party pages these systems already trust. We report what we see in Search Console and in the AI answers themselves. Anyone selling you guaranteed AI citations is selling something they cannot deliver.
Is AI search actually taking my traffic, or is that hype?+
Both things are true and the mix depends on your queries. Informational searches — "what is", "how do I", "how much does" — increasingly get answered on the results page and never send a click. Commercial ones — "emergency plumber Tampa", "dentist open Saturday" — still send the click, because someone has to actually do the job. If most of your traffic is the first kind, the honest advice is to move your content toward the second kind, and we'll say so during the audit rather than sell you a bigger retainer.
