Welcome to NetGate's Premier SEO Packages

Our SEO pricing packages start at $899/month + GST for the Starter plan (up to 15 keywords, local targeting) and scale to $3,099/month for Platinum (60-80 keywords, national and international). Price is driven by keyword count, target geography, competitiveness of your industry, and the depth of on-page work required. All plans charge a once-off setup fee ($999-$1,299) covering technical audit, Google Analytics, Search Console, Tag Manager, and Google Business Profile setup. Enterprise SEO is custom-scoped on application.

Starter and Standard target local audiences (15 and 20-30 keywords respectively) and suit small-to-mid local businesses. Advanced ($1,599) is the most popular — 30-40 keywords across local and national, plus the addition of detailed target consultation, conversion optimisation of content, CTA buttons, and conversion forms. Premium ($2,099) extends to 40-50 keywords with advanced link building. Platinum ($3,099) covers 60-80 keywords across national and international markets. See the full feature comparison for which deliverables sit in each tier.

Realistic expectations: 3-4 months for technical fixes and on-page optimisation to be reflected by Google, 6 months for noticeable ranking and traffic lift on competitive keywords, 9-12 months for SEO to compound into a primary acquisition channel. Local SEO and long-tail keywords often move faster (8-12 weeks). Anyone promising page-one rankings in 30 days is either targeting zero-volume keywords or doing something Google will eventually penalise. Our reports track ranking movement, organic traffic, and conversion progress monthly so you see the trajectory.

Our standard SEO engagement is a 12-month term, billed monthly in arrears + GST. SEO is compounding work — content built and links earned in month three keep paying back in month twelve — so shorter contracts rarely give the work time to show its return. The 12-month structure also protects the strategy from being judged on month-one results, which is when foundation work (audit, technical fixes, content gaps) is happening but rankings haven't moved yet. Enterprise engagements are custom-scoped.

Yes. Every package — Starter through Platinum — includes Google Business Profile setup and optimisation, boosted local SEO for Google Maps, and local citation work. If your business is purely location-based (single suburb or metro area, no national reach), our dedicated local SEO service may be a better fit than a national package. If you mix local and national targeting (e.g. multiple branches plus an e-commerce arm), the Advanced or Premium packages are designed for exactly that mix.
