Website SEO and marketing services, explained
What we actually do each month on Website SEO Basic and Growth, what the one-time Google listing cleanup covers, what you do, and what we do not promise. Written in plain language.
We do not promise rankings, traffic, reviews, enquiries or sales. Your monthly report shows the work we completed and the data we have.
What we offer today
- Website SEO Basic, $99 a month, plus GST. See the plan.
- Website SEO Growth, $299 a month, plus GST. See the plan.
- A one-time $199 setup for either plan, waived for current maintenance clients whose sites we already host and can access.
- A one-time Google listing cleanup of your Google Business Profile, quoted for your listing. How the cleanup works.
Online marketing, advertising, custom development, photography, premium licences and other work not listed on this page are quoted. We do not currently offer a monthly listing plan.
What local SEO means, in plain words
When someone nearby searches for what you do, Google decides which pages to show. Local SEO is the steady, practical work that helps Google understand your website and your business: clear page titles and descriptions, pages that answer what customers actually ask, technical problems fixed so Google can read the site, and business details that match everywhere they appear.
In our plans, that work happens on a website we host and on agreed existing pages. We work inside a fixed amount of time each month, so you always know the price.
Setup, both plans
- We get access to your existing Google Search Console.
- We record a baseline so later reports have something to compare against.
- We write an issue list of what needs fixing.
- We invoice setup when it is finished. If you cancel before then, there is nothing to pay.
- Your monthly plan starts after setup is finished.
Each month on Basic
- Covers one website we host and up to five agreed existing pages.
- A check of the site.
- Up to 15 minutes of fixes.
- One email report.
Each month on Growth
- Replaces Basic. It is not added on top of it.
- Up to two existing-page optimisations.
- Two hours in total, including checks, fixes, reporting and admin.
- Larger work or new content is quoted separately.
Google Business Profile
Your Google Business Profile is the listing that shows up in Google Maps and local search. We offer a one-time cleanup, quoted for your listing:
- We look at the businesses that show up above you in local search and note what their listings have that yours does not.
- We check your business name, categories, hours, description and website link, and fix what is wrong or missing.
- We add real photos of your business, team and work that you send us.
- We set your service area on Google to match the towns you actually serve.
- We make sure your name, address and phone match on your Google listing and your own website.
- You get a short written summary of what we changed.
We do not currently offer a monthly listing plan.
Content
Both plans work on pages you already have. Growth includes up to two existing-page optimisations each month. New pages, blog posts and other new content are quoted separately.
Reporting
Each month you get a report of the work we completed and the data we have. On Basic it is one email report. On Growth, reporting is part of the two hours.

Realistic timelines
- Setup comes first. The monthly plan starts after setup is finished.
- Search engines can take weeks or months to notice changes, and some changes never move a ranking. Results depend on your market, your competitors and your website.
- Your monthly report shows what we did and what the data says. It is not a promise of what comes next.
- We do not promise rankings, traffic, reviews, enquiries or sales.
Common questions
Can you promise I will rank higher on Google?
No. No one can promise you a spot on Google, and we do not. We do not promise rankings, traffic, reviews, enquiries or sales. Your monthly report shows the work we completed and the data we have.
My website is hosted somewhere else. Can I still get a plan?
Both plans are for a website on a Riicon hosting plan that we can access. In most cases we can move, update and host your current site when you move to one of our plans.
What if you cannot get the access you need?
If we cannot get the access we need, we agree a revised scope before a paid subscription starts. Access recovery and new accounts are quoted separately.
Do I need Google Search Console?
Yes. Existing Google Search Console access is required. If you do not have an account yet, setting one up is quoted separately.
Do you write new pages or blog posts?
The plans work on existing pages. New content and larger work are quoted separately.
Do you manage my Google Business Profile every month?
No. We do not currently offer a monthly listing plan. We offer a one-time Google listing cleanup, quoted for your listing.
How do I cancel?
You can cancel at any time. The plan ends at the end of the month already paid. We do not refund a partial month.
Is a Google listing cleanup part of the SEO plans?
No. It is a separate one-time job, quoted for your listing. See how the cleanup works.
Which plan should I start with?
If you want a steady monthly check and small fixes on a few key pages, Basic fits. If you want more time each month to improve existing pages, Growth fits. Ask us and we will tell you honestly, including if neither plan suits you.
