What Is Included in SEO Services

Hello, I am Steve Bonin and as part of my web-design company in Milton, Ontario I do Search Engine Optimization, that is SEO. SEO is complex, varied and ever-changing.

Different markets require diverse attention on aspects of their websites — for some it is ranking and for others it marketing, but there is always one goal — get found & convert visitors to clients.

There are some universal constants that SEO addresses across all websites...
A website should:

Be easy to navigate.
Order information so it is easily found (much of this is done in the navigation)
Have a goal like:
- Sign up for a subscription.
- Make a purchase.
- Contact your company

The complex and varied nature of SEO work lends itself to a retainer model of pricing. I have 4 levels of pricing each with a stipulated minimum number of hours.

My Philosophy of SEO

Statue of Socrates contemplating | Philosophy of SEO |HarrisWeb Creative | Milton

My philosophy of SEO is fairly simple. As with many things that are simple, they are not easy. I do not go after quick-fixes or the latest fad. My SEO philosophy has always been to focus on visitors and help them find what they want easily and quickly. The other half of this is to make search engines understand that this is what you are doing.

The other axiom I find to be true is the 80/20 rule, i.e. you will get 80% of your revenue from 20% of your clients. So don't try to be all things to all people, find out who is buying from you and focus on them — tailor your website to that customer.

Tom Dusmet 2019-02-14 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I contacted Steve at HarrisWeb Creative to develop a new website for me. My experience with Steve was notable in that he was very responsive to my questions and my ideas. He quickly understood what I wanted and brought it to life on the website with a flourish. I was very impressed with the finished product and would highly recommend Steve as a website designer to anyone looking to contract a local developer for their next web project.
Bobbijo Chumley 2012-03-10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Steve, I just wanted to make sure that you knew how much I appreciated your work on the new website design as well as my business cards and flyers. Your clarity in communication and understanding of my needs were tremendous. I appreciate your insights, suggestions and most of all your work. Thanks very much... above and beyond expectations."
Carlo Giangrande 2014-04-05 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I contacted Steve to do many things for me, from website design, google maps, business cards, signs and printed forms. Steve is always professional, fast and competitively priced. I have recommended Steve to many of my business associates who have used him happily. I am happy to recommend Steve and HarrisWeb Creative for any website or printing work. Thanks Steve.
Ron Base 2011-10-08 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I came to him because I liked the look of what he had designed for his website and e-mails, and asked him to put together something for me — not knowing quite what to expect. Well, Steve more than exceeded my expectations. He got me onto Mail Chimp, created an e-mail list for me, and most importantly created an eye-catching logo template that I've been able to use on my blog, website, and in my Mail Chimp e-mails. Working with Steve was a pleasure--he was fast, professional, knowledgable, has great creative instincts, and was always available and patient with a sometimes demanding author. Thanks to his efforts, the traffic on my blog has more than doubled. Next, I'm going to get him to redesign my website. I can't recommend him highly enough!"

Search Engine Optimization Cost

As mentioned above I have 4 levels of SEO monthly contracts. My contracts have no fixed term and can be terminated upon 30 days notice.

Every client requires different things to market their website. Some require Social Media while others do not, some require regular Blog posting and many require website restructuring. Some of my clients have 5 to 30 pages and others have several hundred pages.

Different Pricing Levels

I work on different things for each client so I have constructed different packages for clients to choose from. All packages are paid monthly on the first of the month, minimum of 3 months.
