Cost of turnkey website promotion
It is necessary to start with the fact that there is no single pricing policy for all sites and businesses. But in this article we will try to describe in detail the approximate prices for promoting a site to the top, and explain what they depend on, and how they are formed.
For each project, the factors of cost formation can be divided into 2 types: stable (office, taxes, etc.) and dynamic (niche competition, volume of work, etc.). In each case, it is all individual, here is just a small list of factors that will affect the cost of services:
- Competition in the niche;
- Current level of SEO on the site;
- The volume of pages, categories that need to be promoted;
- Total volume of work on the site;
- Qualifications of specialists and their salaries;
- Office expenses;
- Taxes;
- Marketing costs.
Based on these factors, we can write the average cost of website promotion in our agency, depending on the competition:
| Competition | Cost | Terms |
|---|---|---|
| Low – usually these are local businesses, or new products and services that are not available on the market. | from 300$ | 5-7 months |
| Medium – online stores or service sites focused on a specific region. | from 500$ | 8-10 months |
| High – sites with high saturation in the niche and focused on selling goods/services throughout the country. | from 1000$ | 1-2 years |
| Very high – hypermarkets with a very high assortment of products and high competition. | from 3000$ | from 2-3 years |
These are very approximate figures, to get the exact cost and timing, you can leave a request for a free calculation of the cost of promotion.
By site type
Depending on the type of site, the cost of services will vary. After all, the volume of work and the number of specialists involved will also vary. For example, let's consider the time spent on internal SEO optimization, depending on the type of site:
| Site type | Time costs |
|---|---|
| Landing Page | 1-2 days |
| Service sites: corporate and business card site | 5-7 days |
| Online stores | 10-15 days |
| Online information portals (on frameworks) | From 15 days |
Again, it seemed like a simple service, but here too there are many factors that will affect the duration of optimization. This once again shows that there can be no package SEO solutions with precise and fixed prices.
Next, let's try to understand the formation of prices for website promotion, depending on the type of site.
Price for SEO for an online store
Let's move on to one of the most popular types of sites for which SEO promotion is ordered, online stores. Basically, the cost of promoting online stores is formed depending on the following factors:
- Competition in the niche;
- The amount of work on internal optimization;
- The volume of semantics and the project itself;
- The age of the domain;
- The state of UI/UX, etc.
Below in the table we will consider the prices for promoting online stores, depending on one of the factors - competition (below, very approximate prices for services):
| Competition | Cost of services | Terms |
|---|---|---|
| Low | from 400$ | 6-8 months |
| Medium | from 700$ | 9-12 months |
| High | from 1000$ | 1-1.5 years |
| Hypermarkets | from 3000$ | up to 2 years |

Cost of SEO for service websites
Promotion of service sites has its own characteristics, and differs from SEO for online stores. This is expressed in simpler internal optimization, and the total volume of work (number of landing pages, semantics, etc.). Therefore, in most situations, the price of SEO for service sites will be lower than for online stores.
Let's look at the table with the cost of SEO services for service sites, depending on the competition in search results. Again, we remind you that these are only average figures, based on the statistics of the projects we promote.
| Competition in the niche | Price of services | Promotion terms |
|---|---|---|
| Low | from 300$ | 5-7 months |
| Medium | from 600$ | 8-11 months |
| High | from 1000$ | up to 1 year |

SEO price for Landing Page
In most cases, for single-page sites, we do not involve such a type of marketing as SEO. After all, it is one of the most expensive types of inbound marketing for landing pages.
When promoting such sites, great attention should be paid to internal SEO optimization. We do not recommend using link building if the competition in the niche is medium or higher (or there are more than 20-25 full-fledged competitor sites in the results).
The table below shows the cost of services for Landing Page promotion, depending on the saturation of the niche with full-fledged competitor sites.
| Number of competitor sites | Cost of services | Terms |
|---|---|---|
| 5 | from 200$ | 4-6 months |
| 10-15 | from 300$ | 6-8 months |
| 20-25 | from 400$ | 8-11 months |

For online information portals
When promoting such sites, in most cases, a lot of time is spent on SEO optimization. Since such sites are developed on frameworks, and almost always the level of internal optimization is very low.
These are mainly news sites, media outlets, and others for which one of the main factors in promotion is the freshness, novelty, and expertise of the content.
The price of promoting information portals, depending on the competition (table below):
| Competition | Cost of services | Terms |
|---|---|---|
| Low – local media focused on only one locality or region. | from 600$ | from 1 year |
| Medium – more global media, covering several regions, part of the country. | from 900$ | from 2-3 years |
| High – large media outlets, such as the TSN website, are focused on the entire country. | from 2000$ | up to 3-4 years |
The price of promoting a young website
The main difference in promoting these types of sites is caution and gradualness in building a link profile. Also, they have little trust from search engines, so in the first months, it is almost impossible to get into the TOP for medium-frequency keywords.
In the table below, prices for promoting new websites depending on the competition in the niche:
| Competition | Cost of services | Promotion terms |
|---|---|---|
| Low | from 300$ | from 8 months |
| Medium | from 500$ | 8-12 months |
| High | from 1000$ | from 1-2 years |
These are approximate data for promoting such sites. To receive exact prices for services, fill out the form below.
SEO cost depending on CMS
When promoting, the CMS or framework on which the site is built also plays a very important role. Since this will depend on:
- Possibility and complexity of SEO optimization of the site;
- Expanding the site structure according to semantics;
- Implementing new solutions to improve conversion;
- Adding new functionality, integrating analytics tools;
- Branching user groups, creating editors, etc.
Therefore, if you don't have your own website yet, we advise you to approach this issue carefully. Because a correctly selected CMS or framework is a significant cost saving in further promoting your business online.
WordPress, Modx Revolution
These website management systems are mainly designed to create simple websites: landing pages, business card websites, corporate websites. The cost of promoting websites on WordPress or Modx will depend on many factors, let's figure out how the price of services is formed, depending on the type of website. We will take websites in medium-competitive niches as a basis:
| Site type | Cost of services | Terms |
|---|---|---|
| Landing Page | from 300$ | 4-6 months |
| Business card website | from 350$ | 6-8 months |
| Corporate website | from 450$ | 7-9 months |
| Small information site | from 350$ | from 8 months |
The price and terms of the promotion are based on average statistical data, exclusively from our agency.
Opencart or PrestaShop
These CMS are aimed at developing online stores. There is no difference in the cost of promoting online stores on any of these 2 management systems. Therefore, the table will be similar to that in section 2.1 (where the cost of services is formed depending on the competition). The prices below are average for our agency, so for an accurate calculation, we recommend contacting an SEO specialist.
| Competition in the niche | Cost | Promotion terms |
|---|---|---|
| Low | from 400$ | 6-8 months |
| Medium | from 700$ | 9-12 months |
| High | from 1000$ | 1-1.5 years |
| Hypermarkets | from 3000$ | up to 2 years |
When promoting online stores, you need to consider ranking factors that are different from the factors Google uses for other types of sites.
Horoshop, Prom.ua
The main feature of promoting these types of sites is the limitation in implementing custom functionality. Also, a big plus is the high level of basic internal optimization for such sites.
Basically, these services are designed to create online stores in a couple of clicks. The cost of promotion is slightly lower than in CMS. Below is a table with prices for online store promotion depending on the competition.
| Competition | Cost of services | Terms |
|---|---|---|
| Low | from 350$ | 6-8 months |
| Medium | from 600$ | 10-12 months |
| High | from 900$ | up to 1 year |
For advice on promotion on such services, contact our managers.
Framework
The main disadvantage of promoting such sites is the high cost of internal optimization (if there is none) and the implementation of new solutions. The main advantage of such sites is flexibility in modifications.
Most sites developed on frameworks are online services, large online stores, unique startups, etc. For simple types of sites, frameworks are not advisable to use.
When promoting complex websites, the rate is formed individually for each project, based on the number of hours spent by specialists. Below is a table with the cost of hours for each specialist in the agency.
