Answers to frequently asked questions.
We work with fixed modules instead of hourly rates: SEO audit €990 (up to 500 pages) or €1,990 (up to 5,000 pages). Half-day strategy workshop €2,490. Quarterly consulting retainer from €1,490/quarter. Content strategy development €4,990 (SME) or €9,990 (enterprise). Keyword research from €990. No hidden hourly rates — you know costs exactly upfront. Hourly rate only for ad-hoc implementation consulting: €190/hour, billed in 30-min blocks.
SEO consulting is consulting: we deliver methodology, strategy, prioritization — your team executes. Ideal if you have in-house resources but need senior SEO expertise. SEO management is full-service: we also actively execute (content, technical, outreach). Ideal if you don't have your own resources. Many clients start with consulting (audit + workshop), later optionally move to management — or stay self-sufficient with quarterly retainer.
Deni Khachukaev does senior consulting personally: kick-offs, audits, workshops, quarterly reviews. For research-intensive parts (keyword mapping, technical deep-dives), a 2-person team works in the backoffice, but output is always validated and presented by Deni. No anonymous junior consultants, no outsourcing to Eastern Europe or India — deliberate positioning as premium consulting boutique.
Typical audit timeline: 10 working days from kick-off to finished PDF report. Week 1: access setup, automated crawls (Screaming Frog, Ahrefs, Semrush), initial analysis. Week 2: manual deep-dive review, competitor benchmarks, prioritization, report creation, walkthrough call. For enterprise audits (5,000+ pages), plan for 15-20 working days. Express audit (5 working days) with 30% surcharge possible for urgent need after Google update drops.
Yes — many clients start with audit (€990), then decide based on findings: (1) Execute independently, book quarterly retainer for questions. (2) Partial in-house execution, partial through us (content production as project-based engagement). (3) Full-service SEO management (then 30% of audit price credited to first month fee). We recommend doing the audit first — so you know whether ongoing management is worth it and in which package.
Our toolstack: Semrush Guru (keyword research, position tracking), Ahrefs (backlink audit, content explorer), SISTRIX (Vienna-specific SERPs), Screaming Frog (technical audits up to 500k URLs), Google Search Console + Analytics 4 (performance), PageSpeed Insights + WebPageTest (CWV), Schema.org validator, Looker Studio (reporting). Tool costs ~€4,500/year, included in all consulting services. No budget overhead for you.
Three criteria: (1) Technical depth — can read server logs, debug JavaScript rendering, validate Schema.org, not just check meta tags. (2) Data literacy — works with Semrush/Ahrefs datasets, calculates keyword difficulty themselves, plans with statistical significance. (3) Business understanding — prioritizes by revenue impact, not traffic vanity. Plus: communicative ability to translate complex findings into management-ready summaries. 'SEO expert' without these 3 is often an SEO salesperson.
Yes — that's a common reason for SEO consulting. Typical scenario: website loses 30-60% traffic after core update. Our recovery assessment (€1,490) analyzes: content quality by new E-E-A-T criteria, technical regressions from deploy timing, backlink toxicity spike, competitor movements. Delivery: recovery roadmap with 30-60-90 day plan. Recovery is not guaranteed — but our assessment is concrete and action-oriented, not vague.
Portfolio breadth: we have active clients in B2B SaaS, e-commerce, healthcare, legal, manufacturing, local services. Industry-specific audit samples we can show before engagement (anonymized). Alternative: free discovery call (30 min) before audit booking. There we clarify: does your situation fit our expertise? If not, we refer to specialty agencies — our time like yours is too valuable for poor fit.
Three concrete points: (1) 13+ years continuous as senior, not junior consultant with agency badge — experience only 5-10 others in Vienna have. (2) Technical-first — I develop in Next.js myself, can diagnose code-level problems (not just 'meta tag missing'). (3) Business methodology — consulting with ICE framework and ROI prioritization, no SEO bullshit bingo. Plus transparency: prices on the website, no hidden upsells, recommendations independent of provider.
