Hey there, so far I can honestly say I have a few months of SEO under my belt and have practiced simple things to boost one of my clients websites to at least top ten (just doing free methods at the moment for them). I am just their all around IT Girl for them and now well SEO Admin. Basically I have a client that I do some IT work on the side for and he runs a business full of members and had mentioned to me that some of them are looking for SEO work! It is pretty awesome with a client finds me work personally! He had mentioned to me last year how SEOs can make like five hundred a month, also had mentioned one is a pretty big business. I am still just trying to find that certain "nitch" and the only conclusion is that it would be about $350 and up a month including maintenence fees such as adwords and other utensils. I am simply trying to get opinions from others as someone whom is starting to get a well grounded mindset in the wonderful world of SEO, I also am aware that certain businesses are not as high ranked as others which is why I am thinking of boasting what I had mentioned above onto my site and add that a business meeting is absolutely required to come to a terms agreement. OH! Also what about startup costs as well, encase their site needs a few beauty enhancements or a new layout structer?
