Let’s be real—some SEO agencies just suck. You’ve probably heard all kinds of excuses from them, like “SEO takes time” or “we’re improving your impressions.” But here’s the truth: those are signs they aren’t delivering what you really need—results.

Red Flag #1: “It Takes Time”

If an agency tells you that real SEO results take months or even years, that’s a big red flag. They’re just covering up the fact that they’re not good at what they do. The best SEO services will show a noticeable difference in a much shorter time—sometimes in as little as one month. I routinely double or even 10x my clients’ calls and traffic within 30 days. So, don’t let anyone fool you into believing SEO is a slow grind—it’s not. If they say otherwise, they suck.

Red Flag #2: Obsession With Impressions

Here’s another classic mistake: focusing on “impressions” instead of actual conversions. Impressions might sound impressive on paper, but let’s be honest—you don’t pay your bills with impressions. What you really need are phone calls, leads, and sales. If your calls aren’t increasing and you’re not seeing new customers coming through the door, guess what? They suck.

Red Flag #3: Long-Term Contracts

Beware of agencies that lock you into long-term contracts while promising that results will take time. This tactic is a smokescreen for incompetence. They bank on the hope that you’ll be patient while they underdeliver. The best SEO providers don’t need to tie you down to a contract to prove their value.

So, What Does SEO Really Cost?

Understanding the cost of SEO can be tricky because it varies based on several factors:

  • Agency Type: U.S.-based SEO agencies often charge $100–$250 per hour, whereas overseas agencies might offer services for $10–$50 per hour. But, as with anything, you get what you pay for.
  • Services: SEO can involve a range of services, including SEO copywriting, link-building audits, and even social media optimization. Not all agencies offer the same quality of service.
  • Keyword Competition: The more competitive your industry’s keywords, the higher the price of SEO services, especially for national campaigns.
  • Location: Local SEO is typically less expensive than national campaigns, but that doesn’t mean it should be less effective.

Most businesses spend between $500 and $5,000 per month on SEO. However, depending on your goals, the cost can go up to $100,000+ per month, particularly in highly competitive industries. If you want to play with the big dogs, you’ll need to invest accordingly. For example, my rates start at $1,000 per location—usually $2,000—which is competitive for the guaranteed results I provide.

Average SEO Pricing vs. Awesome SEO Results

Let’s break down the numbers:

  • Automated Local SEO Services: Typically range from $300 to $500 per month.
  • Small-Scale Packages: These are priced between $400 and $900 per month, ideal for small businesses just starting out.
  • Comprehensive Local SEO: For businesses looking to dominate, comprehensive SEO services can cost up to $4,000 per month.
  • Larger Budgets: For more complex needs, businesses usually allocate between $500 and $10,000 per month to ensure they’re getting the best bang for their buck.

Google My Business SEO is where things get really exciting. My service keeps you at #1 for over 50 keywords—not just random ones, but the toughest, most competitive keywords in your industry. Imagine being at the top of the search results for the terms that really drive your sales—that’s the difference between average and awesome SEO.

The Power of SEO Done Right

Here’s the deal: investing in SEO can completely transform your business. According to industry stats, companies that invest in quality SEO services see massive gains in organic web traffic and lead generation. That means more conversions, more revenue, and more long-term success for your business.

In fact, businesses that prioritize SEO experience a 14.6% close rate on leads generated through organic search, compared to a 1.7% close rate on outbound leads like cold-calling or direct mail campaigns .
