Good ecommerce SEO is not cheap. Cheap ecommerce SEO is not good. You get the idea.

Similarly, the level of work needed on ecommerce sites can vary considerably:

Ecommerce sites can range in size from smaller sites with a handful of key products, to larger enterprise sites with potentially even millions of products, categories and filters.

At Search Candy we work with medium to larger-sized companies, so our minimum pricing for ecommerce SEO is £2,000 per month. This means that we only work with clients that pay at least £2k per month or higher.

Ecommerce SEO services in the UK can cost anywhere from £250 to £20,000+ per month depending on the site/campaign size.

Below we will take a detailed look at the pricing levels you can expect to pay for ecommerce SEO services in the UK in 2022 and beyond.

SEO services for smaller ecommerce sites and startups with a low budget.

For smaller ecommerce sites and new sites with a low budget you may be able to find ecommerce SEO services ranging from £250 to £1500+ per month.

We wouldn’t recommend paying any less than £500 per month if you want to achieve any significant results.

This type of budget may be suitable for smaller sites on hosted platforms such as Shopify or Wix.

At this level you can expect to get some technical/onsite work but there will not be much room for link building or other supplementary work every month.

To grow more quickly you may to look at expanding to higher level package.

Ecommerce SEO services for medium sized ecommerce operations.

For mid-sized ecommerce sites budgets can range anywhere from £1500 to £5k per month for an ecommerce SEO retainer at an agency.

This level of budget would be suitable for stores using out-of-the-box self-hosted ecommerce platforms like Magento, BigCommerce and WooCommerce.

Typically mid-level ecommerce sites will primarily be targeting sales nationally or to a smaller number of international locations.

Ecommerce SEO services for large and enterprise level ecommerce operations.

Ecommerce SEO for larger websites can vary considerably depending on the size and scope of the campaign.

Larger-sized ecommerce SEO campaigns will generally come in between £5k and £20k per month.

International SEO is often a major consideration for bigger ecommerce projects, with customers and platforms in different countries and languages.

Larger ecommerce sites are often built on one or more custom platform/CMS, connected to other often complex back-end systems and infrastructure.

More modern ecommerce platforms may make heavy use of JavaScript frameworks and headless architectures.
