What is the Difference Between Affordable and Cheap SEO Services?
Here at Sapphire SEO Solutions, we consider ourselves an affordable SEO company, but not a cheap SEO company.
A company like ours offers affordable search engine optimization services that are created specifically for your needs. Our SEO managers understand how to prioritize the services that will give you the most 'bang for your buck,' so you don't have to pay for any SEO services that you don't need.
Many of our competitors offer SEO packages, but what if you only want us to focus on keyword research and refreshing your content? Or, what if you are happy with your pages, but your site isn't performing correctly, and you want technical SEO. Why pay for full SEO campaigns if you don't need them?
We can come up with an SEO strategy that has everything you want and need, and nothing you don't.
What Does It Mean to be an "Affordable" SEO Agency?
An affordable SEO company offers SEO services that are high-quality, but at a lower price than huge digital marketing enterprises. We focus on creating SEO strategies that are fully tailored to your company and your target audience. These might include optimization efforts, improving page speed, optimizing meta descriptions, improving user experience (UX), and keyword research.
What Does It Mean to be a "Cheap" SEO Agency?
A cheap SEO company is one that uses "cheating," known as "black-hat techniques" in the industry. They often use SEO techniques that get very fast, yet temporary, gains. However, keep in mind that these techniques are often banned or looked down on by Google and other search engines, and over time, websites with these techniques applied will often be penalized, fall very fast on SERPs, and oftentimes get banned from appearing on search engines at all. Some of these techniques include keyword spamming/stuffing, AI-content creation without a human touch, and PBN backlinks.

What are Average SEO Costs?
The average cost of SEO services depends on a number of factors. The most well-known highest ranking companies on SERPs when searching for SEO management tend to cost several thousands of dollars a month even for simple tasks. In this case, the clients are paying for the brand, and not only the services.
You can get the same services that the "big guys" offer at a fraction of the cost by working with a smaller agency like Sapphire SEO Solutions. Most of the time, the services that we offer are the exact same as theirs...and if you are a small business, it just makes sense to support another small business. This is why we provide affordable SEO services, because as a small business, ourselves, we understand that budgets are strict and cost are rising.
Here are some of the average costs of SEO services according to a survey done by Ahrefs.com, a leading comprehensive SEO software suite:

A good budget for SEO depends on your business size, goals, and competition. For small to mid-sized businesses, investing between $500 to $2,500 per month is typical. If you’re in a highly competitive industry or need faster results, a higher budget may be necessary. This range allows for consistent strategy, content creation, and technical optimization, which are crucial for long-term search visibility and success.

Although SEO takes time to show results, it can deliver long-term benefits and a strong return on investment. For small businesses looking to grow locally or online, SEO provides a solid foundation for sustainable digital presence.

When you hire an SEO agency, your time commitment is typically minimal—around 2 to 3 hours per month. In the beginning, you’ll need to provide input about your business, goals, and target audience. That's what takes the most time. After that, we handle most of the work. A good agency will keep you informed without needing constant involvement.
-
Once we start your SEO campaign, you should see the full results in 3 to 6 months, though if your website is new or you are doing a full rebrand, it could take up to 12 months. SEO is an ongoing process, and you constantly have to tweak your strategy. Why? Because search engine algorithms are always changing. In fact, Google makes between 500 and 600 algorithm changes per year. Most of these are small, but they can negatively affect your rankings. So, you need to keep up with the changes, and this is an ongoing service you get when working with our team.
-
Choosing an agency over a freelancer for SEO offers access to a team of specialists, each skilled in different areas like content, technical SEO, and link building. Agencies often provide a broader range of services, tools, and resources that a single freelancer may not have. They’re also more scalable, can handle larger projects, and offer more reliability if someone is unavailable, ensuring consistent progress and support.
Off-Page SEO
Off-page SEO services are those that help your website or page rank on search engines by utilizing tools and other digital marketing strategies away from your site. Examples include backlinks/link building, brand mentions, and social media.
Certified in SEO
Our company has been working in the SEO industry in some capacity since 2007. All of our staff, from our management team to our content writers are SEO-certified in techniques like website audits, link building, keyword research, and more. Most SEO agencies don’t have SEO-certified writers, and that sets us apart from others.
Transparent Communication
When you work with Sapphire SEO Solutions, you will always get transparency and regular communication. We send regular reports and updates about your campaign, and we will explain any changes that might be necessary. You will have access to your SEO team and be able to communicate with them.
Technical SEO
Technical SEO is an important part of all search engine optimization efforts. Our affordable SEO company uses a number of tools to run technical SEO audits, and then apply it to your page, which improves user experience.
Technical SEO
When all necessary pages are optimized, we can now focus on technical SEO. Some of the things we focus on with technical SEO include a full technical audit, fixing site speed, ensuring mobile-friendliness, fixing crawl errors, and indexing everything.
Local SEO
Local SEO is imperative for local business growth, and as an affordable SEO agency, we help doctors, lawyers, dentists, Realtors, service providers, and more gain traction in their local area. These SEO services can fit into any budget.
Custom SEO Strategies
Every SEO plan we create for our clients is totally customized for your needs. You never pay for anything you don't need, and many times, even small changes can show positive results in search rankings. We can work with you to design a strategy that fits with your needs and more importantly, your budget.
White-Hat SEO
Finally, we only use white-hat SEO tactics. We don't want our website penalized by Google, and we won't put any of our clients in danger of that, either. We don't do anything risky or harmful, so if you are looking for a quick fix, we aren't the company for you. On average, SEO takes 3-6 months, and in general its more like 6-12 months
Full SEO Site Audit
The first thing we always do is a gull SEO site audit. Though you might have had a free audit, the full SEO audit takes a deeper dive into your site to look at things like your site's health, the structure, how fast it is, as well as any issues that might be causing it to not rise through the ranks on search engines.
On-Page Optimization
Now that we have a list of keywords to target, we can begin the on-page optimization of your site. This might include tasks such as improving meta tags and descriptions, optimizing headings, refreshing current pages, and internal linking.
Other SEO Tasks
Once we have new content on your site, we can start doing other important SEO tasks, too. These include link building to boost authority, getting your website listed on directories, boosting your social media accounts, creating guest blogging opportunities, and more.
