SEO Services, Timelines & Pricing Explained
Clear answers about my SEO services, timelines, pricing, and how we drive results.
What is SEO and AI search optimization?
SEO helps your website appear in Google for the services and locations your buyers search for. AI search optimization helps answer engines understand and cite your business through clear service summaries, structured answers, schema, entity signals, and useful content.
What is AEO, GEO, AIO, and AISO?
AEO, GEO, AIO, and AISO are practical ways to make your content easier for Google, AI Overviews, answer engines, and AI search tools to understand. The work usually improves page structure, entity clarity, schema, FAQs, topical depth, internal links, and answer-ready sections.
How can AI search optimization help a business in Kenya?
It helps your pages explain your services, location, proof, FAQs, and next steps in a way that both search engines and AI assistants can understand. This can improve discoverability for local service, consultant, audit, and buyer-intent queries.
Who do you typically work with?
I work with startups, SMEs, and growth-stage brands across industries, including e-commerce, retail, legal, real estate, hospitality, and B2B services.
What is included in an SEO and AI visibility audit?
An audit reviews technical SEO, indexability, page titles, service page clarity, internal links, local SEO, content gaps, schema, AI-readable answers, conversion paths, and Search Console signals. You get a prioritized plan, not a vague checklist.
How long before SEO shows results?
Most clients see early wins within 3 to 6 months. Long-term SEO growth is cumulative, with stronger results over time as authority builds.
How much does SEO cost?
SEO pricing depends on goals, complexity, and market size. I offer flexible packages for local, national, and enterprise-level needs, with custom proposals created after a free strategy call.
Do you provide ongoing SEO support?
Yes, I offer monthly retainers that include performance tracking, technical upkeep, fresh content, backlink acquisition, and regular reporting to ensure consistent growth.
How do I know if SEO is working?
I provide clear reports with traffic, search visibility, enquiry signals, conversion paths, and priority actions. You'll also have access to live dashboards and regular check-ins to review progress.
