Getting into the map on your phone, getting a page to rank, and getting named when someone asks an assistant are related but they are not the same work, and they do not cost the same. This page tells you which one you need. The prices are on the pages themselves, not behind a call.
SEO has picked up a reputation for being vague, and it earned it, because a lot of it is sold as monthly activity rather than as a result you can point at. The useful definition is narrow: making it more likely that the person who needs what you do finds you rather than a competitor, at the moment they are deciding.
The map on a phone, a list of blue links, and increasingly an answer written by an assistant. Same customer, three different surfaces, and you can be strong on one and invisible on another.
An accurate profile, consistent details everywhere you are listed, real pages answering real questions, reviews, and other sites mentioning you. That list has barely changed in ten years.
Keyword stuffing, a monthly report of impressions nobody reads, and any promise involving the top three in thirty days. If a number cannot be tied to a phone call, treat it carefully.
Most agencies make you sit through a call before they will tell you a number. Here it is. The difference between the two is volume, not a secret. You are buying more of the same work, done more often, across more of the map.
$2,500 setup, or we waive it if you stay six months. How that works
$5,000 setup, or we waive it if you stay six months. How that works
Both plans cover the map and the pages, and both include the AI tracking rather than charging separately for it. The full month-by-month breakdown is on the local SEO page, and how we handle getting named by AI assistants has a page of its own.
Look for SEO help in Pittsburgh and you will type one of four words without thinking about it. They are not the same purchase, and the one you pick decides who calls you back.
Usually the largest of the four. A team, a process, a portal, and an account manager sitting between you and whoever does the work. Good when you want a system running whether or not you think about it. Less good when you want to talk to the person making the decisions.
The same work, sold alongside the rest of it: the site, the profile, the ads. Worth it when those need to point the same direction, which for a local business they almost always do. That is what 945 Studios is.
One person, advising. They tell you what to do and somebody on your side does it. Cheapest on paper, and the most expensive of the four if nobody on your side has the hours.
Not a who, a what. Tasks bought by the item: an audit, a few pages, a listings clean-up. Fine for closing one specific gap. It is not a plan, and buying tasks without one is how a business spends two years going sideways.
A real look at your profile, your listings and what people find when they search for what you do. Seven specific opportunities, and you keep the list whether or not you ever work with us. Most of the businesses we do this for are around Pittsburgh, where which town you show up in decides whether the search was worth winning. If there is no site worth optimising yet, start from a Lightspeed build and the SEO has something solid to stand on.
