// The 12-month journey

What the first year of Managed SEO actually looks like.

01

Months 1-3 · Foundation

Topical map, technical cleanup, baseline visibility audit, first content pieces and link placements shipping. Ranking movement is exploratory — the work of these months sets the ceiling for the next nine.

02

Months 4-6 · Momentum

Content stack begins to compound. Links land and index. First ranking wins on mid-tail terms. First conversions audit (Escalator and Elevator tiers). Early meaningful traffic lift is typically visible here — not month 3.

03

Months 7-12 · Compounding

Topical authority is established. Rankings stabilize on target terms. Traffic growth accelerates. Strategy shifts toward high-intent pages and conversion rate optimization. This is where the revenue impact that justifies the program lands.

// Proof of work

What our clients say
about working with us.

I hit the jackpot when I hired Digital Elevator for their SEO services. They are truly Search Engine Optimization experts. My revenue doubled in two months, which easily covers the cost of the monthly service.

Eddie Lester
Eddie Lester CEO/Founder, Fitness Mentors

What was initially some service page sales copy led to evaluations into our overall sales cycle and how content and email opt-ins through white papers and our revenue calculator tool could be leveraged to generate more leads.

Chris Morrison
Chris Morrison Director of Marketing, McKesson BPS

Digital Elevator worked with my budget, put a plan in place, and their team of SEOs, web developers, and writers is second to none. My website traffic is growing consistently and the sales and leads generated are providing us the opportunity to expand.

// Frequently asked

Common questions about Managed SEO.

What are the minimum contract terms?

+

Managed SEO is a 12-month partnership with a 60-day cancellation notice and a two-month early-termination fee. We intentionally do not offer trials or short-term "pilots," because SEO done right is a compounding growth engine — not a sprint. Short project windows force teams into chasing quick "wins" on a graph (traffic that drives no real revenue or market share) instead of the pages that actually matter. When an agency can be cut at any moment, the natural incentive shifts toward fast-moving vanity metrics rather than sustainable, outcome-driven results. Our work is focused on SQLs, share of voice, and revenue — not line-item box-ticking. If you need short-term or one-off work, our a la carte products (content, links, audits, CRO) are available with no commitment. That is the right product for buyers not ready for a 12-month strategic partnership.

What happens if I need to cancel?

+

We require 60 days written cancellation notice. Once notice is filed, active work stops and the two remaining months are billed as an early-termination fee. This protects the work already in flight (content in production, links in outreach, audits in progress) and reflects the reality that SEO investments compound — cutting the program early typically erases the gains from the months before it.

How is this different from an agency retainer?

+

Retainers charge monthly for loosely defined work. This is a productized program with fixed, defined deliverables at each tier. You know exactly what you get each month - content pieces, link placements, audits, and strategy. No ambiguity, no surprise scope changes.

Can I change tiers?

+

Yes. You can move between tiers with 30 days notice at any point during the 12-month term. Tier changes do not reset or extend the term.
