What you get for £49 a month

Our Starter plan is built for tradespeople, sole traders and brand new websites. Here's what comes with it, every month.

  • An article every week. Written for the searches your customers make, in UK English and with images.
  • Automatic publishing. We put each article on your website for you, so there's nothing to copy across.
  • 2 backlinks a month. We build them for you, and your website gains links from other sites.
  • Weekly rank tracking. Your key phrase is shown on a Google ranking graph in your dashboard.
  • A free website audit worth £49. It shows what could be holding your site back.

That's the regular work of SEO, taken care of, for one fixed price each month.

Who affordable SEO suits

Our affordable SEO services are built for businesses that want steady progress on Google without an agency-sized bill. That's often a sole trader, a local trade or a new website that needs its first helpful pages.

It also suits businesses that have tried doing SEO themselves and run out of time. Writing a good article takes hours, and most people would rather spend them with customers.

If that sounds like you, our post on affordable SEO for local trades shows what £49 a month should get you, wherever you buy it.

How we keep the price down

AI takes care of the routine work, so you're not paying for hours of someone's time. Our years of SEO experience set the standard, which is what we mean by AI efficiency and human expertise.

You also only pay for one thing: a monthly plan, with no setup fee. That keeps your costs simple and easy to plan around.

Why our affordable SEO services still do the real work

A lower price shouldn't mean less being done. Every article is tailored to your business, follows Google's content guidance and is checked before it goes live.

What it costs compared with an agency

A 2026 UK agency pricing guide puts local SEO packages at around £500 to £1,200 a month. Growing SMEs are quoted around £1,500 to £3,000.

An agency gives you more personal strategy time for that money, and for some businesses it's worth every penny. If what you need is steady weekly work at a fixed price, Auto-SEO starts at £49.

You can see how that breaks down in our guide to how much SEO costs in the UK.

What to watch out for with cheap SEO

A low price is only good value if real work gets done. These are the warning signs worth knowing before you sign up with anyone.

  • Guaranteed rankings. No one can promise a position on Google, so treat any guarantee with care.
  • No clear list of work. You should know exactly what you get each month, such as how many articles and backlinks.
  • Long contracts. If a service is working, it shouldn't need to lock you in.
  • Nothing you can check. You should be able to see your articles and follow your rankings yourself.

Our plans list the work up front, with no contracts, and everything shows in your dashboard. Our guide to common SEO mistakes covers more traps to avoid.
