How much should SEO cost for a good content website?

TODMovies · 10-29-2008, 08:58 AM

I have a content website, and the content is very good. I have been doing SEO on my site for four months. I have had a one-way backlink request success rate of almost 20%, and reciprocal link request success rate of almost 65%, which I think is very good.

However, I want to spend the little time I get off my university on improving my site, rather than SEO. If I hire someone, or some firm to do SEO on my site, how much should I pay? Will adSense or something similar be able to cover the costs?

it depends.. but make sure your pay is well reciprocated with good results..

It is actually dependent on the amount of tasks that needs to be done for your site on a regular basis.

But I would suggest that you do site improvement and SEO alternately.

Depends how much work you want done. You are looking at a minimum of $50 an hour however for quality work....usually more.

As has been stated - it all depends on how much work you want done. I have a WSO running right now that seems like exactly what you need. Check it out - the link is in my sig.
