Question 1

What does SEO cost in Sycamore?

Accepted Answer

Most local SEO programs run $750 to $2,500 a month, depending on how competitive your service is and how much of the site needs rebuilding. One-time audits and fixes are quoted flat. You get the number in writing after the strategy call.

Question 2

How long before I see results?

Accepted Answer

Technical fixes and Google Business Profile work can move things within a few weeks. Competitive terms usually take three to six months of consistent work. Anyone promising page one by next month is guessing.

Question 3

Do you guarantee a number one ranking?

Accepted Answer

No, and nobody honestly can. Google's results aren't for sale. What we do is put you in the best position to earn it: a fast, well-structured site, pages built around real searches, a complete Google Business Profile and a steady flow of reviews.

Question 4

Do I need a new website to rank?

Accepted Answer

Not always. Plenty of local sites start ranking after a technical clean-up and a few new pages. If the current one genuinely can't be fixed, we will say so and quote a build separately instead of bundling it in.

Question 5

Who actually does the work?

Accepted Answer

The same Sycamore team, since 2006. No account manager relaying messages, no offshore handoff, no ticket queue. You deal directly with the person doing the work, and we answer the phone when something changes.

Question 6

Do you only work with Sycamore businesses?

Accepted Answer

Sycamore is home and it is where most of our work lives, but we run search programs across DeKalb County and Northern Illinois too, including Genoa, Cortland, Malta, Kingston, Kirkland and Hampshire.
