    Hi,
    Help me with pricing this SEO service

    I am contemplating to sell my services in SEO with a completely detailed report generation to help identify lacunas affecting onsite SEO between <head> and </head>.

    The report will dissect the home/landing page and will walk you through SEO steps comparing the present optimization with ideal condition through analysis and practical suggestions. The report is usefull for both webmasters and beginners equally well.

    The entire report runs for 5-10 pages depending on page content.

    I am looking at fair amount of work orders for this service and I can handle 3-5 requests per day.

    I would appreciate all costings that would be fair enough from the perspective of customers. (I am not sure whether I should have some kind of reserve price for this.)
    Thanks in advance.

    how does it differ from websitegrader.com?

    Will you be making suggestions?

    What type of background do you have?

    This seems like a fairly standard SEO services practice except instead of actually making the changes, you are just telling the webmaster what changes he should make. How much time would you have to invest? Do you think your if webmasters make the changes you suggest that their SERP's will benefit? How much?

    So many parameters, only you can set the price. ;)

    Truly valid questions.
    My report is more extensive than websitegrader.com generated report dealiing with issues tag by tag, whether it is used or not but having strong potential to add weitage to SEO efforts. Each such tag will critically analyzed against your three top keywords.

    For example, within the title tag, whether there are stop words, and how prominant are your KWs and if they are not, what can be done to make them prominent and so on.

    The report stics to the standards set by W3C while statistically identifying the lacunas and suggests practical steps. It deals with the effect of having javascript on the page and the effect of its location.

    I can tell you, a 5-15 page report can be really extensive and useful.

    My background
    I have a masters in marketing management after Bachelors in Engineering.
    I have served in different countries at various levels including managerial responsibilities. IN RELATION to this offer, I have spent two years in the industry.
    Don't forget, I am using a software to generate the report which I tried satisfactorily. I need about 30-45 minutes.

    Correction to my original post: In place of onsite SEO between <head> and </head>. read as onsite SEO between <html> and </html>.
