How much does SEO cost?

The honest answer is "it depends" — and the reason it depends is worth understanding, because it tells you a lot about who you're dealing with. SEO isn't one thing you buy off a shelf. What it costs comes down to where you're starting, how competitive your world is, and how much of it you want done for you.

What actually drives the price

A handful of things move it more than anything else. Where you're starting: a site that's technically healthy needs less rescuing than one that isn't. How competitive your market is: ranking for a quiet local trade is a different job to a crowded national one. How fast you want it: patience is cheaper than urgency. And how much you take on yourself versus hand over.

One-off, or ongoing?

Broadly, SEO is paid for in one of two shapes. A one-off piece of work — fixing the foundations, setting a site up to be found — has an end. Ongoing work — the steady climbing, month after month — is a rhythm, not a project, because search never sits still. Which you need depends on where you are and how far you want to go.

Why we won't quote a number sight-unseen

Here's the plain-English part. Anyone who gives you a firm price before they've looked at your site is guessing — or worse, selling a package that suits them rather than you. Beware especially the flat "£X a month and you'll be number one" promise; nobody can honestly guarantee that. Honest pricing follows an honest look.
