Search Engine Optimization is extremely essential for any online business to succeed. Not only does it attract targeted traffic to a website, it is often used as an effective marketing tool by many businesses. Not everyone is skilled enough in this field and hence it is but obvious that you will have to turn to a professional who provides SEO services. So how do you decide on the fee and how much you should ideally pay for such services? For this, you need to be aware of all the factors associated with SEO pricing and how the entire process works. Read on to find out more.
The Types of SEO Pricing, Companies Offer
SEO professionals generally have three types of pricing. Each of these either benefit the customer of the SEO service provider. Sometimes, you may be given the choice to choose the type of pricing you want but most often the terms of payment are fixed by the SEO company.
The first type of pricing is the one which is performance based. This means that you only pay for what you get. For example, if the service provider promises you a 60 percent hike in traffic or a 50 percent hike in Search Engine ranking, you pay only if this promise is fulfilled at the end of the month. This type of pricing is risk for the SEO service provider as sometimes due to unavoidable circumstances this target may not be met.
The second type of pricing is the one where you pay per action. Here you pay your SEO service provider a certain amount of money every time a pre defined action is taken. For example, you may payments every time a visitor signs up for a newsletter, or makes a purchase through the website or gets in touch with you to strike a business deal after coming across your website on the internet. This again is riskier for the service provider and more beneficial for the SEO service seeker.
The third type of pricing is the fixed monthly payment option. This is probably the only option that is riskier for the SEO service seeker than the provider. This type of payment is not performance of action based. You pay your service provider a fixed fee every month and he takes care of all your SEO needs – no questions asked! The only thing you can do here is change your SEO service provider if you don’t see desired results. Most SEO companies prefer this method of pricing.
Many SEO companies charge you on the bases of what type of SEO you require and how much time it takes. Ideally off page optimization takes more time than on page optimization because the service provider has to look for appropriate websites that can contain your link, submit content related to your website to article directories so that they direct traffic to your site and also post links on additional websites.
Tips On Selecting The Best SEO Service
The price of SEO services plays an important role while on the best SEO service provider. Based on this pricing, you can choose which company fits your budget and how they fare in terms of the services they have to offer. Listed below are few things you should consider while choosing an SEO service provider based on its pricing.
1.Check to see the facilities and features offered and not offered in the service provided
2.What are the guarantees of measurable results
3.What are the perquisite of the service provided
4.Whether there are any additional fees for SEO management
5.How effective has the SEO company been in the past
6.What reputation the company has in the market
Other Factors SEO Pricing Depends On
There are a few other factors that the pricing of SEO services depend on like off-page optimization and on-page optimization. Off page optimization has more to do with link building, posting links on social networking site and popularizing your website on other web pages so that people are directed to your site through other links. On page optimization has more to do with content on your website, the layout of your site, appropriate keywords, Meta tags and Meta descriptions, appropriate website URLs, etc.
