01Why it is paid

## Why this is not a free audit

Free audits are lead magnets. They are usually automated, they surface whatever the tool surfaces, and they exist to create alarm rather than clarity. This one takes real hours, produces conclusions specific to your market, and belongs to you. If you take the roadmap and execute it yourself, that is a legitimate outcome.

02Coverage

## What the diagnostic covers

Technical crawl and indexation review

Local visibility snapshot and Google Business Profile review

Keyword and competitor opportunity scan for your actual market

Conversion path review, from search result to inquiry

AI search baseline against a defined prompt set

A prioritized 90 day roadmap, ordered by value and effort

One strategy call to walk through it

03The deliverable

## What you receive

A written document, not a slide deck of screenshots. Findings, evidence, the reasoning behind each priority, and what we would do first, second, and third if it were our business. Plus the raw data behind it.

The honest tradeoff

A written document is slower to skim than a deck, and it will take you an hour to read properly rather than ten minutes to flick through. That is the point. A deck of screenshots is easy to produce and easy to nod along to, and it rarely survives contact with the question, so what do we do first.

04Investment

## What it costs

The Search Visibility Diagnostic is 950 to 1,750 dollars depending on site size and market complexity. If you go on to a qualifying engagement, the fee is credited toward your first month.

You have been told conflicting things by different vendors

You want to understand the opportunity before committing to a retainer

### This is not a good fit if

You want a guaranteed ranking

You are not in a position to act on the findings for at least six months

06Questions

## Questions we get asked

How long does the diagnostic take?Two to three weeks from kickoff, depending on site size and how quickly access comes through. The strategy call is booked once the document is with you, so you have time to read it first.

What do you need from me?Read access to Google Analytics, Search Console, and your Google Business Profile, plus a short conversation about which services actually make you money. That last part matters more than the access.

Is the fee really credited?Yes, against your first month on a qualifying engagement. There is no expiry game and no minimum term attached to it.

Can I use the roadmap with another agency?Yes. It is written to be handed to anyone, including your in house team or a different agency. You paid for it, it is yours, and we would rather be useful than hold it hostage.
