SEO Freelancer Costs UK – Google Ranking Roadmap Prices for WordPress Ecommerce Websites or Local Geographical Services

It’s funny how SEO and Digital managed agencies are coy about their website costs, isn’t it? As a freelancer I’m so much more flexible than any web agency, for a start I don’t legally tie you down to a 12 month contract.
