What does SEO cost?
Search engine optimisation (SEO) is an ongoing process and therefore the investment is typically ongoing. Most Danish SEO agencies charge a fixed price per month. Prices range from anything between DKK 1,000 per month up to full-time salaries or more. In addition, there may be internal costs.
Some agencies act solely as external strategic advisors, while others also work at an operational level. We work with search engine optimisation on both a strategic and an operational level, depending on the client's needs, at prices typically between DKK 6,000 and DKK 25,000 per month. A number of factors influence the price:
- Branch. The higher the level of competition, the more resources it takes to achieve a good position on Google. At the same time, there are certain sectors which - regardless of the level of competition - place greater demands on the work done with content and links.
- Website. The larger and more complex the website, the more time-consuming it is to analyse and optimise. Typically, based on initial analysis, we will select the most profitable parts of the website to work on further.
- Current level. The lower your current visibility and knowledge level, the more resources the work requires. In other words, it is easier to build on a strong foundation than to start from scratch.
- Objectives. The more pages (product pages, category pages and the like) you want to make visible, and the faster you want to do it, the more expensive it is. There is a significant correlation between your objectives and the cost of the work.
- Commitment. The more you engage in the work, the lower the external costs. You may have an in-house SEO specialist who can do parts of the work yourself, in which case the agency's role is typically more consultancy-based.
If you choose to do all the work yourself, be aware that in addition to internal costs, there are at least external costs for purchasing a range of digital SEO tools. Such tools typically cost between DKK 1,000 and DKK 10,000 per month.
