DISC's Premier Monthly Retainer Service

For the client who wishes to invest in search engine marketing on an ongoing basis, DISC offers our premier monthly retainer service. You choose a monthly budget, and DISC works steadily within that budget to improve your search engine positions, your site?s usability, PPC campaign efforts, and in concert with your team we brainstorm and innovate.

Set Up: In the first month, DISC will assess various states of your current internet marketing efforts including usability, SEO-technical aspects of your site and server, and current SEO, PPC, and social media initiatives and prospects. We will work closely with you to assess, strategize, prioritize by ROI, and budget. Set up fees range from an average of $5,000 - $7,000 and can be up to $10,000 depending on the size and complexity of your site coupled with the aggressiveness with which you plan to pursue search marketing.

Monthly fees: After the initial set up, DISC will settle into steady monthly work to carry out best plans. Minimum monthly retainer starts at $2,000 per month without PPC, or $4,000 per month with PPC. Typically a monthly retainer will run at $4,000 per month with PPC for a small non e-commerce site. For larger, more complex sites, monthly minimums start at $6,000 per month with PPC, and, depending on your order or lead fulfillment capabilities, this fee can go as high as conservative ROI projections permit.

To allocate our labor time on each marketing task, DISC uses our standard prices that are posted throughout our web site and summarized on our Sell Sheet Page. DISC?s prices are based on good records of average time required for each task, so that you and DISC can efficiently prioritize the monthly labor time we agree on.

The minimum prices for this premier retainer service give you a starting point, but keep in mind that as your site grows in complexity and your marketing becomes more aggressive, one could easily ? and profitably - spend $200,000+ per year on search marketing consultation. It ?s up to you: How far do you want to go, and how fast?
