QUICK ANSWER
What are SEO services?
SEO services improve how a website ranks in search engines and appears in AI answers. They cover technical SEO, on-page optimization, content, internal linking, links and reporting. Toffyjar SEO services start at $499 a month and include generative engine optimization (GEO).
SERVICES
What do our SEO optimization services include?
Every retainer starts with an audit and a keyword and prompt map, then works through technical fixes, on-page optimization, content and authority building, with GEO layered on top.
BY THE NUMBERS
What do the numbers say about SEO and AI search?
Research presented at KDD 2024 (Aggarwal et al., Princeton University and IIT Delhi) found that adding citations, quotations and statistics can boost a source's visibility in generative engine responses by up to 40%, while classic keyword stuffing performed worse than doing nothing. Google's Core Web Vitals define a good experience as Largest Contentful Paint within 2.5 seconds, Interaction to Next Paint of 200 milliseconds or less and Cumulative Layout Shift of 0.1 or less, measured at the 75th percentile of page loads (web.dev). Toffyjar SEO retainers cost $499 a month for Starter and $999 a month for Growth, with Enterprise priced on scope, and every plan includes GEO for AI search. Put simply, rankings now depend on fast pages and answers that cite real sources, and the same work also earns citations in AI Overviews, ChatGPT and Perplexity.
HOW IT WORKS
How does SEO work in 2026?
Search engines crawl pages, index them and rank them on relevance, quality and authority. AI assistants now summarize those results and cite sources. SEO marketing makes your pages the clearest, most trustworthy answer for both. Start with what SEO is, how to do SEO step by step and how Google ranking works.

COMPARE
SEO agency vs freelancer vs SEO executive: which should you hire?
An in-house SEO executive suits large teams with steady work. A freelancer suits narrow tasks. SEO firms and SEO companies bring strategy, content, technical and reporting together. Toffyjar adds GEO and developer access at offshore rates.
| Option | Best for | Typical cost | Gaps |
|---|---|---|---|
| Freelancer | One-off tasks | Low | Capacity, no developers |
| In-house SEO executive | Steady in-house roadmap | Salary plus tools | Narrow skills, no dev team |
| Large SEO agency | Big brands | High retainers | Account layers |
| Toffyjar | Growth companies and enterprises | $499 to $999/month, enterprise custom | Proof pending: ask for references |
CHOOSING
How do you find the best SEO agency?
The best SEO agency for you shows real results in your market, explains its method, reports on revenue-linked metrics and never promises guaranteed rankings.

PRICING
How much do SEO services cost?
Toffyjar SEO and GEO retainers are $499 a month (Starter), $999 a month (Growth) and custom for Enterprise. Professional SEO services usually cost more at large US agencies. See SEO packages and pricing and SEO and GEO pricing.

ENTERPRISE

GEO
What is the difference between SEO, AEO and GEO?
SEO earns rankings in search results. AEO (answer engine optimization) shapes content to be the direct answer in featured snippets and voice. GEO (generative engine optimization) earns citations in AI-generated answers. Toffyjar does all three in one plan. Compare SEO vs AEO vs GEO and GEO vs SEO.
| Discipline | Goal | Where it shows |
|---|---|---|
| SEO | Rank pages | Google and Bing results |
| AEO | Be the direct answer | Featured snippets, voice |
| GEO | Be cited by AI | ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, AI Overviews |
MARKETS
Do you provide SEO services in the USA, UK and India?
Yes. We run SEO for US companies first, plus the UK and India, with city programs in Bangalore, Delhi, Mumbai, London and Pune. See SEO in the USA, SEO in the UK and SEO in India.
TIMELINE
How long does SEO take to work?
Technical fixes can show impact in weeks. Content and authority usually take 3 to 6 months to move competitive keywords, longer in tough markets. We report monthly on rankings, traffic, leads and AI citations, so progress is visible early. Use our SEO audit checklist meanwhile.
AI SEARCH
Why does SEO now include AI search visibility?
Buyers increasingly ask ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity for recommendations before they search Google. Those assistants cite pages that are clear, structured and trusted. Our retainers track a prompt set every month and fix the pages that should be cited. Learn about GEO, AEO and GEO strategies.

| Every month | Report: rankings, AI citations, leads |
MEASUREMENT
How do you measure success for seo services?
We agree the numbers before work starts and report them monthly: non-brand keywords in the top 10; organic sessions to money pages; ai overview and chatgpt citations; organic leads. For example, our case studies report measured figures such as non-brand top-10 rankings and referring domains, taken from OpenSEO with the date. If a metric does not move, we change the plan rather than the report.
PREPARATION
What should you prepare before starting seo services?
To start quickly, have ready Search Console and analytics access, your top services and markets, and the competitors you lose deals to. If something is missing, we help you gather it in the first week. Fill the requirement sheet and we send a fixed quote within 48 hours, with the scope, timeline and team named.

Who is seo services from Toffyjar best for?
Our seo services work is built for companies that sell high-value services or products, need leads rather than vanity traffic, and want SEO and AI search handled by one team. It is less suited to one-page hobby sites or teams that only want the lowest possible price, because every engagement includes senior review, staging and reporting.

WHY TOFFYJAR
Why choose Toffyjar for seo services?
Toffyjar combines WordPress and web engineering with SEO and GEO in one team, so the people who write the strategy also ship the code. We measured current results for our clients with OpenSEO: for example, one enterprise site we built ranks for 65 non-brand keywords in the Google top 10, 37 of them at #1. You get fixed quotes, published prices, named people and full ownership of everything we build.
TIMING
How quickly will you see results from seo services?
Technical fixes can show in Search Console within weeks of being shipped. New content usually needs 3 to 6 months to reach stable rankings, and competitive terms can take longer. AI search citations can move faster, often within 4 to 8 weeks of publishing clear, sourced answers. We report all three every month so you can see momentum before the big numbers arrive.
PROOF
Sites we built, ranking today
We measured these results on 16 October 2026 using OpenSEO, which draws on DataForSEO ranking and backlink data. For example, in one case study an enterprise digital engineering company whose site Toffyjar built has 65 non-brand page-one rankings, 37 at #1, with 2,717 referring domains. In another, an AI insurance process automation platform has 13 non-brand top-10 rankings including #1 for underwriting software, with 2,578 referring domains. These are current figures, not before-and-after claims, and client names stay private under NDA. Every site was planned from a requirement sheet, built on staging, reviewed by senior people and handed over with the client owning the code, content and logins. Projects are priced at about $199 per page, and SEO and GEO retainers start at $499 a month. Ask for a reference on a discovery call and we will connect you with a client where they agree.
