Pricing
Across sixteen searches on 18 September 2026, one result quoted a range. That says more about the market than the range does.
The short answer
There is no standard price. Published ranges run from a few thousand dollars a month to six figures a year. Most work is sold as a retainer, and the biggest cost driver is whether anyone does execution or only reports.
What ranked on 18 September 2026: One listicle quoted five thousand to one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. That is a category description, not a price. Every other result offered a contact form.

| Execution | Rewriting, structure, technical and third-party fixes | Yes. The costly part |

Questions
The work is not standardised and results are not guaranteed. A published price invites comparison on the one axis sellers control least.
Only if it buys execution. A low fee usually buys monitoring and a report, which records your invisibility without changing it.
Often, if someone already does organic work and can publish fast. Outside help earns its fee on diagnosis and third-party description.
