Of course, we can also work together on a more flexible basis. I’m happy to support you as a freelance consultant for German SEO, AI search and content strategy. My hourly rate is €129. Our first talk is always free.
What does high-quality SEO (content + support) actually cost?
In short: if you want your German website to grow sustainably for Google and AI search, you should invest at least €2,000 per month in ongoing optimisation for Search and Generative engines.
Here is how I arrive at that number:
- Writing a thoroughly optimised German SEO article or page usually takes me between 5 and 10 hours, depending on the industry. This includes keyword research, image SEO and two rounds of revisions.
- In addition, we usually need 30 minutes to 1 hour of communication and project coordination per piece of content.
- Of course, content should also be monitored: How does it perform on Google? And in AI search? SEO monitoring and live reporting usually take about 1.5 hours per month, longer if your website is larger or requires more optimisation. If you want GEO monitoring as well, it takes another 2 hours.
- Optional: If your website is multilingual, an SEO-optimised translation typically takes another 3 to 8 hours.
| task | hours | cost |
|---|---|---|
| SEO content (landing page or blog post) | 6 | 774€ |
| AI optimisation | 1.5 | 193.50€ |
| oroject management & communication | 0.5 | 64.50€ |
| SEO monitoring and live reporting | 1.5 | 193.50€ |
| AI monitoring and live reporting | 2 | 258€ |
| 11.5 | 1’483.50€ |
If we agree on a monthly budget of €2,000 (15.5 hours), there will be enough budget left to react to the insights from the reporting. That includes adjustments, updates, fixing technical or content issues, or supporting other activities such as newsletters or LinkedIn content — all of which help strengthen visibility on Google and in AI search over time.
That’s why I generally recommend planning at least €2,000 per month for ongoing SEO work. SEO costs are therefore a predictable investment — one that pays off over the medium to long term.

Let’s talk about your project. Contact me directly — I’d love to hear from you.
What customers ask me about SEO prices …
That depends on your SEO strategy. If you want eight new blog posts per month plus content maintenance, your budget will naturally be higher than for one blog post plus reporting. I offer monthly SEO support starting at €850.
An SEO article or page usually costs between €500 and €1,200, depending on the scope and industry. This includes keyword research, SEO optimisation and two rounds of revisions.
Depending on the topic, I typically need five to ten hours to complete a high-quality piece of SEO content.
The finished content is not just optimised for Google and AI search, but also easy to read and genuinely useful for your customers.
Yes. GEO optimisation is not a separate add-on for me, but part of holistic SEO work.
When I develop websites, content or strategies, I always consider both classic search engines and AI-based search systems. This includes structure, topic logic, content depth and signals that help AI systems understand and recommend your content. You therefore don’t pay extra for GEO. Instead, you invest in a future-proof foundation that works for Google as well as AI search.
This is why I deliberately do not offer separate “GEO packages”.
In short: no.
SEO content cannot be priced fairly by word count. What really matters is the research, strategy and structure behind the content.
Before writing, I analyse keywords, search intent and the role of the content within your website strategy. Afterwards, the content often requires fine-tuning to perform well.
That’s why I work with experience-based fixed prices. This gives you predictable costs — and gives me the flexibility to create content that actually contributes to your marketing goals.
bar auf Deine Ziele einzahlen.
Reluctantly.
SEO works best as a long-term process. Content needs time to rank, and both Google and AI search systems constantly evolve. A one-time measure rarely delivers sustainable results.
Some SEO providers sell website optimisation as a one-off project. Personally, I prefer working with clients over a longer period of time so we can steadily improve your visibility on Google and in AI search.
No, rankings cannot be bought.
What you can invest in is a strong SEO and content strategy, combined with high-quality content that earns visibility over time. If you want faster visibility, you can also use paid ads temporarily, while your organic rankings develop.
Yes — in fact, that’s one of my specialties.
I often work with international companies that want to enter or grow in the German market. In the past, I have supported clients from the UK, the United States and France with their German SEO and content strategy.
My role is to help translate your product, messaging and marketing strategy into content that resonates with a German-speaking audience.
No.We can communicate entirely in English (and I can also manage projects in French if needed).
My role is to bridge the gap between your international marketing strategy and the expectations of a German-speaking audience.
Yes — because high-quality SEO content requires native-level language and first-hand cultural experience.
My focus is therefore on German SEO content for the DACH market.
If your project requires other languages, I work with a trusted network of native SEO writers from countries such as the UK, Italy, or Hungary. I’m happy to coordinate these projects and ensure the SEO strategy remains consistent across all languages.
