Market prices

How much does SEO cost in Birmingham?

What other providers publish, so you can compare.

Most Birmingham SEO agencies do not publish prices. The few local providers that do start at around £349 a month and go up to about £999 for wider campaigns. Across the UK, small business SEO usually costs between £300 and £1,200 a month.

Our plans start at £299 a month with no VAT added, which puts us at the lower end of that range. The difference is overheads, not effort: we are a remote team without a city centre office to pay for, and we do not spend on awards or sponsorships.

Affordable, not cheap

Affordable SEO or cheap SEO?

There is a difference, and it matters.

Affordable SEO

  • A clear list of monthly work
  • Real people doing real fixes
  • Earned links and honest reviews
  • Reports with enquiries, not just rankings
  • Rolling contract you can leave

Cheap SEO

  • Vague "optimisation" each month
  • Automated reports and no changes
  • Bought links from networks
  • Rankings for searches nobody uses
  • Long lock-ins to keep you paying
Not included

What is not included

So there are no surprises later.

Paid advertising

We do not run Google Ads or social ads. If ads would help, we will say so in the audit.

Website builds

We fix and improve existing sites but do not build new ones. We can brief your designer.

Large content projects

Big batches of new pages beyond the plan are quoted separately before any work.

Review generation services

We help you ask for reviews but never write, buy or incentivise them.

Terms

Simple terms

Rolling monthly

No minimum term. Give 30 days notice to stop at any time.

No VAT, no setup fee

The price you see is the price you pay. Nothing added at checkout.

You own everything

Content, accounts and tracking stay in your name if you leave.

Value for money

What your monthly fee pays for

A monthly SEO fee pays for specialist time: research, writing, technical fixes, outreach and reporting. It does not pay for rankings, because nobody can sell those. What you should expect is a clear list of work each month and a report that connects that work to enquiries.

If a month passes and you cannot see what was done, ask. Our reports list every change, and you can see the shared tracker at any time.

Our promise

SEO packages Birmingham firms can compare

Our SEO packages are published so you can compare them with any quote you receive. If another provider offers more for less, ask them for the same detail we give: monthly deliverables, who does the work and how you leave.

If you are not sure which plan fits, start with a free SEO audit. It shows what needs doing first, and our Birmingham SEO team will suggest the plan that matches, even if that is the cheapest one.

Prices are reviewed once a year. If they change, existing clients get at least 60 days notice in writing, and nobody is moved to a higher plan without agreeing to it first.

Budget

How to set an SEO budget

Start from the value of a new customer. If one new job is worth £500 to you and a plan costs £299 a month, the plan needs to bring one extra customer a month to pay for itself. For many local firms, that is a modest target once the map listing is working.

Give it time. SEO usually takes three to six months to show a clear return, so set aside enough for at least that long. Because our plans roll monthly, you can stop if the numbers do not add up, but stopping after six weeks rarely gives a fair test.

Spend where the searches are. A firm in a busy market with many rivals may need the National plan to compete, while a specialist with few rivals can do well on the Local plan. The free audit shows which applies to you.

Keep some budget for the work around SEO too. Good photos for your profile, a few hours of your developer's time for larger fixes and prompt replies to new enquiries all make the monthly fee work harder.
