GuestAugust 14, 2020 at 2:40 pmI personally haven’t seen prices that high, even in the medical field where leads would be much more profitable.
However, a bunch of people here are suggesting otherwise so i’d be curious at the average price charged!

GuestAugust 14, 2020 at 3:31 pmIf you are shopping around for price then you need to ask if you’re prepared to shop around for levels of performance too.
I could give you a service for £200.
I wouldn’t do anything, but you’d pay less.
(NB: I don’t actually offer a £200 do nothing service before I get slaughtered)

GuestAugust 14, 2020 at 3:52 pmIts about the minimum you can invest and expect to get any sort of substance from a freelancer or small agency.

GuestAugust 14, 2020 at 4:55 pmSo you’re referring to more than just 3 pack keyword targeting + local PPC?

GuestAugust 14, 2020 at 5:34 pmIt’s actually what they are giving in that price. I charge less to my clients but still doing keyword research, some on page as well technical recommendations if necessary and whole off page too. So ask what he is giving you worth for $2K/Month. If you are getting the orders after 3 months too and returns all the ROI then it is all worth it. Still check and calculate all the possibilities before investing that much.

GuestAugust 14, 2020 at 11:52 pmProbably, but without much more detail it seems like an average rate that could go in either direction. I generally treat retained services as more legitimate than flat rate plans. As I rarely do the same things twice, sure there are similar steps taken, but nothing is exactly the same.
Also offerings like, “4 blog articles a month, 1 site audit, 2 backlink audits, and a partridge in a pear tree.” are totally useless in SEO. You do what it takes to rank and every month you should have something different to do, sometimes that includes a disavow file, a backlink audit, or writing new blog articles, some months it is all about planning and strategy, and others are just on site code and UX revamps. It really depends on where you are and what is needed.
