The most expensive SEO problems are the ones no one is watching.

The 2026 reality
AI Overviews are halving CTR on the queries you ranked for.
Six out of ten Google queries now show an AI summary. Position #1 loses 58% of its clicks the moment an AI Overview appears above it. The audit identifies which of your terms are exposed, and how to get cited inside the answer instead of buried below it.
// The new SEO win
AI-referred visitors convert at 4.4×–23× higher rates than traditional organic. Brands cited inside AI Overviews earn 35% more organic clicks than competitors that aren’t. Getting cited is the new ranking #1.

Pricing in context
An audit is a fraction of one month of SEO retainer.
Most B2B teams spend $5K–$150K every month on SEO without ever validating the foundation it’s running on. The audit is the cheapest insurance you’ll buy this year.
Mid-market B2B SEO retainer// per month
$5K–$30K
Enterprise SEO retainer// 55% of enterprises spend >$20K/mo
$30K–$150K+
Tool-only automated audit// what most “audits” actually are
A one-time technical audit at our price point is a small share of one month’s retainer for a typical mid-market team.
If you go on to ongoing work with us, your audit fee is creditable toward the first 60 days of retainer.
Frequently asked
Questions, answered.
Isn’t SEO dying with AI Overviews?+
No, it’s reshuffling. 63% of digital leaders report AI Overviews positively impacted their organic traffic, visibility, or rankings since rollout. Brands cited inside AI Overviews earn 35% more organic clicks and 91% more paid clicks than non-cited competitors. The brands that lose are the ones that didn’t audit for AI citability.

How is this different from running Screaming Frog or Ahrefs ourselves?+
Those are excellent tools, and we use them too. But tools tell you what is wrong; they don’t tell you which 3 fixes will move rankings most, or how to implement them on a Next.js stack with a Shopify Plus store bolted on. The average site has 8 of the 10 most damaging technical issues simultaneously, but knowing that doesn’t tell you what to ship Monday morning. The audit closes that gap.
Can you guarantee rankings?+
No serious SEO will. What we can promise is measurable technical impact: Vodafone earned 8% more sales from a 31% LCP improvement. Tokopedia gained 23% session duration. Redbus doubled mobile conversion. All from technical work an audit identifies first.
Our site seems fine. Is an audit really necessary?+
We’ve never audited a site without finding meaningful issues. Across 418,125 real-world site audits: 74% have missing alt text, 67% have over-long titles, 65% have no meta descriptions, 51% accidentally noindex pages, 35% are slow-loading, 27% fail LCP. Most sites we look at have all of these, and most owners just haven’t measured.
Do you really deliver in 7 days?+
Yes, that’s the standard timeline once we have access. Sites larger than 100k URLs may need a few extra days, and we’ll flag that during kickoff so there are no surprises.
Will my dev team be able to implement the fixes?+
That’s the goal. Every finding includes a clear description, why it matters, and concrete implementation guidance (code snippets, configuration examples, or process changes) written for engineers, not for marketers.
Our buyers don’t really start on Google. Does this matter?+
They probably do. 67% of B2B buyers prefer a rep-free buying experience. 71% start with a Google search. 90% used AI tools during their last purchase research. Two-thirds of B2B buyers won’t talk to a rep until they’ve already shortlisted vendors, and they build that shortlist via search.
What stack and CMS platforms do you support?+
All of them. WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, custom Next.js / Nuxt / Remix builds, headless setups, multi-domain and multi-region. The audit doesn’t change. Only the implementation guidance does.
How long until we see results from acting on the audit?+
Initial traffic movement on technical fixes typically lands within 3 months; revenue attribution becomes visible at 4–6 months; positive ROI at 7–9 months; peak returns in years 2–3. Forrester research puts technical SEO investment payback at under 3 months.
