Sound familiar?
Finding a good SEO person — not just someone with a certification — takes 2-4 months of sourcing, screening, and interviewing. Then they might not work out.
Onboarding an SEO hire means your best people spend weeks getting them up to speed on your clients, your processes, and your standards.
An in-house SEO specialist costs $60-90K/yr in salary alone — before benefits, tools, and management overhead. For 5-10 clients, it rarely pencils out.
When the SEO person leaves, all that institutional knowledge walks out too. Then you start over — recruiting, training, ramping — all while your clients wait.
The economics
You bill your clients. We do the work. The math is straightforward.
Process
One onboarding call (30 min) to align on your agency's standards, tone, and client expectations.
Submit client URLs and goals via async intake. No calls needed for individual clients.
Full audit, optimizations, and monthly report — white-labeled and formatted to match your deliverable standards.
Send the deliverable to your client under your brand. We're invisible — your team gets the credit.
How we work together
Phase 1: Intake
Weeks 1–2
We review your client's site, existing assets, and goals. A full technical audit and quick wins list is delivered under your brand within 5 business days — before we optimize a single thing.
Phase 2: Execute
Weeks 3–8
Schema deployment, meta optimization, technical fixes, and on-page refinement — white-labeled and formatted to match your deliverable standards. No Leaf branding, ever.
Phase 3: Report
Days 60–90
First ranking movements appear. We package findings into a client-ready performance report under your brand — keyword gains, technical wins, and next-month priorities.
Phase 4: Retain
Month 3+
Monthly deliverables, ongoing optimization, and new page expansion. You keep the margin, we keep delivering. Scales linearly as you add clients to the roster.
Pricing
One rate. Scale as your client roster grows.
Audits for your first 2 domains delivered in 5 days — one per client, white-labeled. No commitment required — you can stop after the audit. If you roll into the full plan, each domain's $499 applies toward the first quarter (just pay the $500 difference per account).
Billed quarterly · 2 account minimum (domains)
No commitment · 2 account minimum (domains)
FAQ
No — never. Every deliverable (audit reports, monthly reports, meta briefs, schema files) is unbranded. We sign NDAs on request and operate as a silent back-office. Your clients see your logo and your name.
The minimum is 2 accounts (domains). This keeps the engagement economics viable on both sides. You can start with 2 and scale up — pricing is per domain, so it grows linearly with your roster.
Everything is delivered async — no calls required. You get reports, schema files, and implementation notes via a shared folder or directly to your PM tool of choice. You own the client relationship; we handle the output.
Yes. The standalone audit is $499 per domain (minimum 2 domains · $998 total). You get a full crawl, technical findings, and a prioritized quick wins doc — white-labeled and ready to send to your client. No ongoing plan required.
The deliverables are identical — same scope, same output. Quarterly is $999/client/mo billed every 3 months ($2,997/client/quarter) and is the recommended path for clients on retainer. Monthly is $1,299/client/mo with no commitment — better for testing the partnership before locking in a roster.
First deliverable (audit + quick wins) lands within 5 business days of intake. Ongoing monthly work kicks off from week 3. We handle the scheduling — you just pass us the domain and any client context.
No hiring. No training. No calls. Just results under your brand.
