    Every one has different charges I have seen people charging from $100 to $1000's of dollars, it all boils down to the point who has more experience, the portfolio, the experience they have. I have seen people charging such a cheap rate and their website is not even have optimized themselves. A reputable search engine optimization company is not risky but they charge way more money.

    hi

    buddy i think nowadays SEO is a fast spreading thing and the experts in this really charge very high ranging from 100$ -5000$
    it all depends on the past experience and the reputation they have
    but there are still many professional experienced SEO here on this forum itself :):)

    It depends on what you want, the quality of your website, the levels of competiton for your keyterms and much more.

    One thing, a decent SEO company should be happy to give you a decent, well planned and transparant quote, without trying to 'hard sell' their service to you. - Basically, what I am sayingis they should give you a good amount of info on what they can provie for you, and how much it will cost - based on your website, keyterms and competition levels.

    If they then try to hassle you to buy their service... run away. - Its fine for them to contact you to ask if you are interested, but they shouldn't try to push you to go with them - if they do that, then they are NOT professionals really!

    Re: GAF (Get A Freelancer)... Be careful if you go down that route!!! Many Scammers there.

    As for not getting ripped off, ask the SEO company for referrences, and ask those people if they are happy with the SEO companies service.

    Thats just my opinion of what I think, so its from an SEO companies point of view, but other SEOs may disagree!

    You can tell if its a scam or not if the website is not optimized and a shady website compared to a optimized website. You can just check their clients or portfolio as well. if they don't have one i say don't do business with them. If they do have check it out see how well the work has been done and decide from there.

    I have seen charges varying from $750-$4000. You may ask them for weekly report
    to see how much improvement is there.

    The Cost depends on work involved and results you are looking for.

    on personal note, always avoid GFA and RAC if you are looking for seo service. I really don't know how can you work when you are not even allowed to contact the other party!

    The cost for search engine optimisation varies greatly depending upon the niche of your site, how competitive a keyword is, how well built your site is and also a major considering factor for pricing is if it is a stndard static site or an ecommerce site.

    It is importnat to fully evaluate the SEO company, request references, check their work and also check the SEO implemented on their website. SEO can be expensive, so you need to ensure that you are happy withthe company and the work they have completed previously before you signed up for what could be a costly contract.

    You get what you pay for but you should expect to pay 1,000+ per month for good quality SEO services. You can usually tell if an SEO company is good by looking at their history of success. Look at who they have done work for in the past and where those sites are ranking now for their targeted search terms. Also look at who works for the company and the history of those people in the industry.
