Rolling monthlyMarket prices
How much does SEO cost in Leicester?
SEO in Leicester usually costs between £300 and £1,200 a month for a small or medium business, based on the prices local agencies publish or quote. The spread comes from how much work is included, who does it and how competitive your searches are.
SEO freelancers in the city tend to charge £120 to £150 an hour, which suits one-off jobs but adds up quickly for ongoing work. Agency retainers are usually better value once you need content, links and reporting every month.
SEO prices from our agency sit at the lower end of that range because we work remotely, keep plans fixed and do not charge setup fees. You get the same core work, with fewer overheads built into the price.

What SEO packages do not include
SEO packages cover the work listed in each plan and nothing is added without your say. These four items sit outside every plan and are always quoted separately first.
Ad spend
Paid ads budgets for Google Ads or social media are not part of any SEO plan.
Website rebuilds
Website rebuilds and new designs are quoted on their own if your site needs one.
Paid directory fees
Paid directory and listing fees are passed on at cost, only if you agree to them.
Extra product copy
Product descriptions beyond your plan allowance are quoted per batch before any work starts.
Contract terms
SEO contract terms in full
SEO contracts with our agency are short and readable. The terms below apply to every plan, and you will see them again in full before you sign anything.
SEO invoices from our agency carry no VAT, so the fee shown is the full amount you pay. If your business is VAT registered, check with your accountant whether the reverse charge applies to you.
- Rolling monthly: no 6 or 12 month minimum term on any plan.
- 30 days notice: cancel or change plan by email at any time.
- No setup fee: the first month costs the same as every other month.
- No ranking guarantees: nobody can promise a position in Google, so we never do.
- First report after 30 days: every month after that on the same date.
- You keep the work: pages, content and listings stay yours if you leave.

Value for money
Getting the most from your SEO budget
SEO budgets go further when the basics are fixed first. That is why every plan starts with technical fixes and Business Profile work before any new content or links.
SEO results usually show in calls and forms within 3 to 6 months on a local plan. Rankings for tougher national searches take longer, which is why the National plan includes links from month one.
SEO reports from our agency show the cost per enquiry where your tracking allows it, so you can judge the plan by the same numbers you use for any other spend.
