Frequently Asked Questions
Pay-on-performance SEO ties our fees directly to your results. We set clear KPIs upfront — like organic traffic growth, keyword rankings, and revenue attribution. If we fall short, our fee decreases. If we exceed targets, we earn a performance bonus. You're never paying full price for subpar results.
A complete SEO service covers technical SEO (site speed, crawlability, schema markup), on-page optimisation (content, meta tags, internal linking), off-page authority building (link acquisition, digital PR), local SEO (Google Business Profile, citations), and transparent monthly reporting with actionable insights.
SEO audit costs in Australia typically range from $500 for a basic technical review to $5,000+ for a comprehensive audit covering technical health, content gaps, competitor analysis, and a prioritised action plan. At 3P Digital, our performance baseline audit is included in the onboarding phase — no separate fee.
Most agencies charge fixed monthly retainers regardless of results. Our pay-on-performance model means we share the risk. We're incentivised to deliver because our revenue depends on your growth. We also provide full transparency through real-time dashboards and monthly performance reports.
Most clients see measurable improvements within 3–6 months. Initial gains come from technical fixes and on-page optimisation, while authority building and content strategy compound over 6–12 months. Our KPI framework tracks progress from week one so you always know where you stand.
We primarily serve Australian businesses across all states and territories. Our pay-on-performance model is designed for the Australian market, with local expertise in Australian search behaviour, compliance requirements, and competitive landscapes.
