The Speedline, a three-month SEO package at one fixed fee
The Speedline is a three-month SEO package at one fixed fee. In the first six weeks every technical fault on the list you sign in week two is fixed; across the thirteen weeks the site gains rewritten money pages, new pages and illustrated posts; on day ninety you get a written report against the day-one baseline, read from accounts you own. USD 6,000 for a small site, 9,000 for a service site, 12,600 for a shop.

What it is
The Speedline does the groundwork a retainer spends its first months on, all at once: the fixes first, then the pages and posts, then a report you can check line by line against the day it started.
The speed is in the calendar of the work, not in the index, and page speed is only one of the fixes. Most of what a site can gain in ninety days is already on it, in pages a crawler cannot reach or does not trust. Ahrefs found that 72.9 percent of the pages in Google's top ten are more than three years old, and that between 1.74 and 6.11 percent of newly published pages reached the top ten within a year. So the old pages are fixed first, while the new pages and posts start early, because they take longest to be believed.
The accounts are opened in your name, every change goes into a dated log, and the posts are written and drawn by the same studio that reads your Search Console. On day ninety you can stop, keep everything, and hand the log to anyone. Each one runs from a start date agreed when you book, and if we cannot take it on in time, you hear that at booking, not after.
Who it is for
Three kinds of site, one tier each. A small business site of up to fifty pages that has never had its faults found. A service business with up to three locations, for which the Service site tier is the local SEO package: the fixes, the business profiles brought complete, and new pages for the places worth ranking. And a shop or catalogue of up to 1,500 indexable pages, where most of the faults live in filters and product templates.
It suits a business that wants search work with an end date: a board that approves a budget once, a launch that needs the groundwork done before it, or an owner who would rather judge one quarter than sign a year. It also suits a site that has just been built and never looked at since.
What it costs
Three tiers, set by the size of the site rather than by a menu of extras. Each is one fee for the whole thirteen weeks, published so it can be compared with a retainer, an audit, or another studio's SEO package price before anyone writes.
| Rung | Price | What it includes |
|---|---|---|
| Small site | USD 6,000, one fee (about AED 22,000) | Up to fifty indexable pages and five templates. Every technical fault on the agreed fault list fixed by week six, three money pages rewritten, two new pages, six illustrated posts, Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools set up, Google Business Profile and Bing Places brought complete, and the day-ninety report. |
| Service site | USD 9,000, one fee (about AED 33,100) | Up to 250 indexable pages and three locations. The same fixes, five rewrites, three new pages (location pages where they are needed), eight posts, Google Business Profile and Bing Places brought complete, and the day-ninety report. |
| Shop or catalogue | USD 12,600, one fee (about AED 46,300) | Up to 1,500 indexable pages. Filters and variants brought under crawl control, six collection pages and twenty product pages rewritten, three buying guides, eight posts, product markup, Merchant Center feed diagnostics, the business profiles brought complete, and the day-ninety report. |
Paid 40 percent on signing, 40 percent when the fix list closes in week six and 20 percent with the report. Stop after the audit and you pay USD 900 for it; the rest of the first payment comes back. USD anchors every price; the dirham figure is at the pegged rate of 3.6725, rounded to the nearest hundred, as of 5 September 2026, and excludes any VAT, sales tax or withholding your own country applies to imported services.
The thirteen weeks
- Before week one. The brief card takes a sentence; the reply comes in writing, usually inside a day. Then the first 40 percent, and Search Console shared read-only, as Google advises.
- Weeks one and two, the audit. The crawl, the index, Core Web Vitals, markup, a content gap and an answer-engine baseline. You sign the fix list here: every fault that can be changed inside your own site, hosting and CDN settings. Or you stop and keep the audit.
- Weeks three to six, the fixes. Shipped in weekly batches, each checked by a fresh crawl. Speed fixes go first, because field data covers twenty-eight days and must catch them by day ninety.
- Weeks four to eleven, the pages. Money pages rewritten, new pages written from an interview with you, and illustrated posts at a steady pace, drawn here and linked from pages that already have standing.
- Weeks seven to eleven, the listings. Business profiles on Google and Bing brought complete, the name, address and profiles made consistent across the web, and every fix sent to Search Console for validation by day sixty.
- Weeks twelve and thirteen, the report. A fresh crawl, the answer-engine prompts run again, and the day-ninety report walked through on one call, with the handover pack and the last 20 percent. A thirty-day watch follows.
What you can check on day ninety
Google's own advice to anyone hiring an SEO is to ask what results to expect, in what time, and how success is measured. This is the answer, written before the work starts. On day ninety you get the dated fix log beside a fresh crawl showing each fixed class of fault at zero; the index and Core Web Vitals reports for day one against day ninety; and every counted page and post with its address, date and length.
Search Console's impressions and clicks are compared over like windows, the four weeks before the start against the four weeks before the report. Average position is shown for context and never as the target. The answer-engine prompts from week one are asked again and the replies recorded as they are. Anything published after week ten is counted as delivered, not yet as measured.
What it promises, and what it never will
Promised: every fault on the signed list fixed by week six, and anything outside it written up as a ticket your own developer can act on; every counted page and post live by day ninety; every account in your name; the report measured against the same baseline; and for thirty days after the report, any listed fix that breaks again is fixed free unless someone else changed it. If a counted item misses day ninety for a reason on this side, it is finished within thirty days or refunded in proportion.
Never promised: a position, page one, a traffic or lead figure, indexing, or a date for an AI citation; the engines decide those, and Google's own guidance says no one can guarantee a number one ranking. No links are bought and no special relationship with Google is claimed, because none exists.
What it rests on
The Speedline was first offered in September 2026, and no client has bought it yet. What it is assembled from has been done here before, on client sites with their own Search Console properties. Two of those runs happened inside a single quarter, the length of this package, and the exports handed over on 28 August 2026 show what the sites did while the work ran.
- ClearQuest Water. A takeover of a site somebody else built, where the studio's own audit found the commercial half of the site had never been crawled. The fixes went in first. From 15 impressions a day in late May 2026 to 507 a day in August 2026, with the local guides between positions 5 and 12.
- La Soie. A new Shopify shop whose first quarter of search work ran beside its launch. An average position of 6.75 across the run, with weekly impressions up from 147 to 1,650 between 25 May and 23 August 2026.
Neither was a Speedline, and neither isolates the search work from the build and the writing beside it; La Soie's ran inside a far larger editorial programme. They show what a quarter of this work can look like, not what yours will do. There are no testimonials on this site and no star rating in its markup, because it has neither.
Who it is not for
If the site needs rebuilding or moving to another platform, this is the wrong first purchase: the fixes would be thrown away with the old templates. A migration or a build comes first, and the Speedline can follow it. The same goes for a site nobody is allowed to change, where the audit is worth buying and the rest is not.
It is also wrong for anyone who wants links bought by the hundred, a guaranteed position, or press coverage folded into the price. Press releases are sold separately, and their links carry the labels the search engines ask for, so they are never counted as search work.
Questions people ask before they write
What do SEO packages usually cost?
SEO packages are sold in three shapes: a plan you carry out yourself, usually a few hundred to a few thousand dollars once; a technical sprint, a few thousand; or a monthly retainer, which averages about USD 2,900 a month across the 439 providers in Ahrefs' pricing survey and often carries a minimum term of three to six months. The Speedline is a fourth shape: the fixes and the content together, one fee, thirteen weeks, from USD 6,000.
Is this a one-time SEO service?
Yes. It is bought once, runs for thirteen weeks and ends with a report, and nothing renews unless you choose it. What does not end on day ninety is the index's own clock: posts published in the last weeks are still being judged, which is why the report counts them as delivered rather than measured.
Why three months, and not one or twelve?
One month is too short to see a fix take: Core Web Vitals field data alone covers twenty-eight days, and Google's own validation runs a twenty-eight-day watch. Twelve months is a retainer, and the studio sells those too. Three is long enough for the fixes to be read by the index and for the first posts to be crawled, and short enough to judge before committing to more.
What happens after day ninety?
The report ends with one written recommendation: stop, and work from the handover pack; carry the posts on as an editorial programme; or move to a search retainer. Sign within thirty days and there is no second audit, the Starter retainer's three-month minimum is waived because the Speedline has served it, and the calendar carries on without a gap.
What do I need to provide?
Search Console, analytics and Business Profile access, a named login to your site rather than a shared password, someone who can change hosting or DNS within two working days, and forty-five minutes for an interview about the business. One person approves content within three working days. Late approvals move the calendar, not the price, and the second payment falls due after thirty days paused.
Is there a more affordable SEO package?
Yes, in two ways. The audit alone is USD 900 and is written so your own developer can act on it; bought in the sixty days before a Speedline, it comes off the first payment. The Starter retainer at USD 1,200 a month does the same work more slowly. What the Speedline buys over both is pace and a fixed end: the same people ship the fixes and write the pages in one quarter, and the price is known on day one.
