What SEO and websites cost

Plenty of agencies will not tell you what anything costs until you have booked a call. Here is what I charge, so you can decide whether it is worth a conversation.

Websites

Standard

From £500

Best for

A straightforward small business site

Larger

From £750

Best for

More pages or more requirements

Large or custom

From £1,000

Best for

Bigger sites or custom functionality

Every build includes the copy, written by me, plus domain and hosting setup, Search Console and Google Analytics. Where your site sits depends on what it needs to do, and I will tell you which tier it falls into before any work starts.

Hosting

£20 a month. I host and look after your site, and your domain stays in your name. Changes after launch are charged at my hourly rate of £50, so you only pay for edits when you need them.

SEO retainers

Tier 1

£400 a month

8 hours a month

1 to 2 content pieces (blog posts, landing page copy or product descriptions), small site tweaks, and a monthly check-in email

Tier 2

£600 a month

12 hours a month

2 to 3 content pieces, more site work such as a new small page or larger tweaks, and light keyword tracking

Tier 3

£800 a month

16 hours a month

3 to 4 content pieces, ongoing site work as needed, keyword tracking, and a full written monthly report

Every retainer has a three-month minimum, then we agree what comes next. The first month includes an SEO audit of your site, unless you have already had one through the free mini-audit.

One-off work

£50 an hour for content or SEO work outside a retainer or a website build, such as a single page of copy or a set of product descriptions.

Questions people ask

Why do you publish your prices?

Because you should know roughly what something costs before you spend time on a call. If the numbers work for you, we can talk about the detail.

Is there a contract for SEO retainers?

A three-month minimum, because that is the shortest period in which you can fairly judge whether SEO is working. After that, we agree the next term together.

What happens if my website needs more than the standard tier?

I will tell you before any work starts. Nothing moves up a tier without you agreeing to it first.
