Help me price my seo service

    I've been contacted by a number of people since last year to do SEO for their sites but I am always hesitant to do... Now I decided I will take 2 projects... The requirement is as follows.

    ++++++++++++++++++
    Website should be on top 5 of google search result after 3 months using 3 keywords . Each keyword has around 1 million search result as of this moment.

    3 months of linkbuilding from blogs and forums with the target of 10k backlinks to both homepages.
    ++++++++++++++++++

    With the time given and the moderate competition, I know I can bring his sites into google first page but how much should I ask?

    Thank you very much..

    I would say $500 for the whole project. This is a good service that you are offering, but you want to make it affordable.

    How much would you charge for keywords with 500,000 search results?

    I'm agree with this..

    But, you Must adjust rates based on depending, how difficult, how Much of and how many competitors..

    PS.
    - Don't forget to provide warranty..
    - Give Testimonial Page...

    LOL what kind of service is that?...
    The required result needs 3 months of work of at least 4 hours a day... would you accept such payment?... really non-sense post... Oh boy, your $30 is good only for 200 to 300 link directory listings.. and it would not give a good result and can be done within 2 days...

    What I am asking is serious suggestion. not BS post please...

    Who the hell will accept $50 for 3 months work? Analyze before you post please and do not post just to increase numbers... You are not making sense..

    Can be done within 2 to 3 months..

    I think you may have answered your own question.... 4 hours a day x how many days per week x how much are you worth per hour.

    I won't work for anyone for less than $25 per hour.

    That's pretty much the only reasonable way of doing it unless you want to pick a number out of the sky.

    never mind how many search results there are, how competitive is it?

    they are not necessarily that related.

    It depends on how many links the competitors have.

    chateau auch is no 1 for chateau auch - 1.6m results (plus other different keyword searches) with 1 link from a tourist office and 2 small unrelated links. It is only pr1 and I have achieved this with internal SEO only. For other - different - keyword combinations the top sites have 40-70,000 links and are pr4 or pr5.

    The keywords are competitive and it would require thorough analysis... there are around 2 million searches...
