FAQ

Questions we get asked.

  • Most SA businesses see measurable ranking improvements within 3 to 6 months. Quick wins — GBP optimisation, technical fixes, citation cleanup — can appear within 4 to 8 weeks. Competitive national keywords typically require 6 to 12 months for sustained top-10 placement.

  • SEO pricing in SA ranges from R4,500/month for foundational local campaigns to R25,000+/month for aggressive national campaigns. NexusSEO packages start at R6,500/month. We provide a free audit and custom proposal before any commitment.

  • Common reasons: thin content, technical crawlability errors, weak or missing GBP optimisation, no backlink authority, slow page speed, and targeting keywords too competitive for your current domain authority. A technical audit identifies the specific barriers within 48 hours.

  • GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) is optimising your content to be cited by AI tools — ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Perplexity. NexusSEO offers dedicated GEO optimisation including llms.txt implementation, structured content for AI consumption, and entity authority building.

  • Yes. Our white-label service lets SA agencies resell our SEO under their own brand. Branded reports, direct client communication under your identity, and a dedicated account manager. Minimum R5,000/month per white-label client. We partner with 12+ agencies across South Africa.
