SEO Growth Retainer
An audit is only worth what gets shipped from it. This is the execution half: capped hours, an agreed plan, and the same report every month.
The problem this solves
Audits go stale. A fix list agreed in March is half-obsolete by June, because the product shipped four releases and the site is not the site that was audited. The technical debt that was cleared comes back, one deploy at a time, and nobody notices until a quarter of traffic has quietly flattened.
Open-ended retainers have the opposite problem: nobody can say what was bought. So this one is capped, planned in advance, and reported against the plan. If we do not use the hours, you are told.
We do not write blog posts, build links, or run paid campaigns. If a content specialist is what you need, we will say so and happily work alongside one.
What's included
Every month, on a cycle you can set your calendar by.
- Capped hours, tracked openly — you see what was spent, on what, before the invoice rather than after.
- Monthly full crawl and diff — what changed since last month, including changes nobody told us about.
- Deploy regression checks — release-by-release review of the things that break SEO silently: robots directives, canonicals, redirects, render output.
- Implementation — pull requests in your repository, or written specs and code review if your team prefers to ship it.
- Core Web Vitals monitoring per template — field data tracked by page archetype so a regression is attributable to a release.
- Index coverage and log monitoring — crawl waste, newly excluded URLs, and pages that stopped being visited.
- Structured data monitoring — enhancement reports watched so markup failures surface in days, not quarters.
- The monthly dashboard — the same metrics in the same format every month, with the open issues list attached.
- Quarterly re-baseline — measured against the original audit, so progress is a matter of record.
- Direct async access — a shared Slack channel or email thread with a stated response window, not a ticket queue.

It is difficult to price execution against a problem nobody has measured. If you have a recent audit from someone else, bring it — we will work from that.
