03 Ad-hoc

Or just borrow me for a day

Not everything needs a retainer. If you have an in-house team that needs cover, a specific job that needs doing, or you just want a second opinion from someone who will tell you the truth, book time instead.

Half day£375 ($499)
A focused piece of work, or a working session with your team
Day rate£650 ($849)
Ad-hoc work, cover for an in-house team, training, second opinions
Five-day block£2,950 ($3,899)
Booked in advance, used across a quarter. Saves £300 ($350) on five single days

Retainers work out cheaper per day of work — the day rate exists for when a retainer would be the wrong shape.

04 The details

The questions everybody asks

What is an SEO package?

A fixed bundle of SEO work for a set monthly price. The useful ones say what gets produced each month (pages written, fixes made, reporting) rather than listing hours or vague activities.

How much does an SEO package cost?

Most legitimate UK retainers sit between £800 and £4,000 a month. Here the part-time retainer is £999 ($1,299) a month and full-time is £1,499 ($1,999). Anything far below that is usually automated reporting with little real work behind it.

Do you have SEO packages for small businesses?

Yes. The part-time retainer at £999 ($1,299) a month is built for small and local businesses: one area of the site at a time, technical health watched, and a report you can read in five minutes.

Is there a contract?

No lock-in. The full audit is a fixed price paid once. The monthly retainers run month to month and you can stop with thirty days’ notice — the reporting is built to justify the invoice or tell you to stop. Read the full terms.

Can I start with an audit and move to a retainer later?

That is the most common route. Start with the free basic audit, then the full audit if you want the detail, fix what is broken, and decide whether ongoing work is worth it. Nothing about the audit assumes you will continue, and it is included free if you start a retainer.

What is the difference between the free audit and the full audit?

The free audit is a short, plain-English read on what is generally wrong with the site. The full audit goes through everything: a crawl, Search Console, speed, structured data and content, with a prioritised list and how to fix each item. It is productised, which is why it costs less than a couple of days of my time.

What if I need more than the plan covers?

Extra work is charged at the day rate, agreed before it starts. Nothing appears on an invoice you have not already said yes to.

Do you work with US clients?

Yes. Roughly half my work is US-based. Every price has a fixed US dollar figure in brackets, and you are invoiced in pounds or dollars, whichever is easier for you.

What about a full site rebuild?

Rebuilds are quoted per project rather than by plan, because they vary enormously. A rebuild usually runs alongside a retainer rather than replacing it.

How long before anything happens?

Audit fixes can move rankings within weeks. Content compounds more slowly — expect the curve to bend somewhere between month three and month six, which is what the results on this site show.

Who actually does the work?

Me. Nothing is subcontracted, and nothing is handed to a junior. That is the main reason the plans are scoped the way they are.

Not sure which one you need?

Send me your site and I’ll tell you which plan actually fits — including if that answer is “none of them, here are two things to fix yourself”.
