On-page optimization, metadata, internal linking, and campaign-specific tactics

4-month minimum, then month-to-month with 30 days notice and no early-termination fee

// The 12-month journey

What the first year of Managed AEO/SEO actually looks like.

01

Months 1-3 · Foundation

Topical map, technical cleanup, baseline visibility audit, and the AI Visibility Foundation (AEO schema, citation baseline). First content pieces and link placements ship. 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 (Elevator tier). 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.

From the field

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 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 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.

The managed SEO commitment

Fixed pricing. Real strategy. Zero
surprises.

Every tier comes with a defined monthly scope and a fixed monthly price. What we execute inside that scope is set by what your audit and strategy say will actually move the needle — so the plan adapts, the invoice does not. No surprise invoices. Every tier runs a 4-month minimum, then month-to-month with 30 days notice - stated up front, not in the fine print.

// Frequently asked

Common questions about Managed AEO/SEO.

What results do most clients see?

+

Most of our clients see upwards of a 20% increase in leads or sales within the first 12 months, and 40% or more by the 24-month mark. Those are typical outcomes across our book of business rather than a guarantee — your starting authority, your competitive set, and how quickly changes can ship on your site all move the curve. What is consistent is the shape of it: the first quarter builds the foundation, months four through six show the early lift, and the compounding that produces those numbers lands in the back half of year one and through year two.

What are the minimum contract terms?

+

Every tier has a 4-month minimum. After that, the program runs month-to-month with 30 days written notice and no early-termination fee. The minimum exists because the program front-loads work - the earned media campaign lands in month 2, and the technical cleanup happens in the first quarter. Beyond that, what we ask for is a realistic time horizon. SEO done right is a compounding growth engine, not a sprint, and programs judged on the first 90 days tend to get steered toward fast-moving vanity metrics instead of the pages that actually drive SQLs, share of voice, and revenue. We build every strategy on a 12-month arc because that is where the compounding shows up.

What happens if I need to cancel?

+

Once the 4-month minimum is complete, give us 30 days written notice. There is no early-termination fee. During the notice period we finish the work already in flight — content in production, links in outreach, audits in progress — so nothing is left half-built. The only caution we would offer is that SEO investments compound, and cutting a program early typically gives back the gains built in the months before it.

Is AI visibility included, or do I need the separate AI Visibility sprints too?

+

It is included. Managed AEO/SEO is AI-native by default — every tier ships the AI Visibility Foundation at onboarding (AEO schema, citation baseline), AEO-briefed content built for the formats AI engines cite, and ongoing prompt tracking, with no separate AEO charge. The AI Visibility sprints are the same three pillars sold a different way: focused, scoped three-month engagements for when you want to close a specific AI-citation gap, run once or back to back. Choose a sprint for a contained push; choose Managed AEO/SEO when you want search and AI owned together as an ongoing program — the same work running continuously, at better value, compounding month over month.

Can I change tiers?

+

Yes. You can move between tiers with 30 days notice at any point. Most clients start where their budget and competitive pressure meet, then scale up once the program proves out.
