The Optimization Flywheel: Building Growth That Lasts
SEO isn’t a one-time effort—it’s an ongoing process. My Optimization Flywheel ensures your site continues to evolve, improving rankings and traffic over time. This iterative model focuses on making small, impactful updates that compound into significant long-term growth.
The process includes refining metadata for better visibility, targeting new featured snippets and SERP opportunities, and improving internal and external linking.

These consistent refinements keep your site competitive and responsive to changes in search algorithms and audience behavior.
- Flywheel Components:
- Update Metadata and Schema: Regularly refresh title tags, meta descriptions, and structured data to maintain alignment with search trends and user queries.

Whether it’s a major Google core update or a shift in ranking factors, I adapt strategies to protect your rankings and maintain growth. My proactive approach ensures that your SEO efforts are always aligned with the latest industry standards.

Resolving Technical Issues for a Strong SEO Foundation
Even the most compelling content won’t succeed if your site’s technical foundation is weak. I ensure your website is optimized to perform efficiently for both users and search engines. This includes fixing broken links, resolving crawl errors, improving page speed, and enhancing mobile usability—all of which directly impact rankings and user experience.
Step 3: Performance Monitoring—Real-Time Tracking and Reporting

Wtih SEOCopilot, I believe in a performance-driven approach to SEO—where your investment reflects the measurable growth we achieve together. My pricing structure is designed to provide transparency, accountability, and peace of mind, ensuring you pay for results, not promises.
With SEOCopilot, your monthly payment is tied directly to the results we deliver. At the start, we’ll create a 12-month forecast outlining traffic growth expectations. Each month, your payment adjusts based on the percentage of the forecast achieved.
Base Monthly Fee: $6,000

Your monthly fee scales with the success of our efforts:- 100% of Forecasted Traffic Goals Achieved: Full base fee of $6,000.
- 90% of Forecast Achieved: Adjusted fee of $5,700.
