    Hi guys,

    Are there any serious Credit Cards website marketers on this forum? I need your advice please.

    We have a website about credit cards coming up soon and we have several questions:

    1) What is the SEO optimal budget for such project (US$/mo) if we want to reach 30.000 visitors per month

    2) How long will it take with that budget to reach 30.000 visitors per month?

    Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance

    If I was to do the SEO I would charge per month. My rankings tend to take 1-3 months to realize and don't need much upkeep.

    I only do SEO for myself. I'm just saying - I see no reason why you should be paying every month unless they keep improving your rankings each month.

    An interesting think I noticed today, my marketing blog is rank 185 for 'Mesothelioma', if I was to optimize for that keyword I could be rich?! I haven't done any SEO for the term at all, I just wrote about it once.

    Just target long tail credit card keywords (theres tonnes of location specific searches) and build backlinks and you're set! You can do that yourself.

    Going for 30k visitors/ month it means that you will have to either target a couple of competitive keywords or a lot of less competitive ones.
    The fees are different from company to company and may vary from a few hundreds to few thousands per month. Usually once you share your monthly budget with a seo company, they will be able to tell you what they'll do for those money and also the time frame
