Web sitemde SEO denetimi gerçekleştirmek için bir şirketten 3.000$ tutarında teklif aldım. Görünüşte bana biraz yüksek görünüyor, değil mi?

It really should depend on the size of the website and off-page presence and how comprehensive the audit is. The more pages, the more time to review all of them (or at least the patterns). The more backlinks/authoritative signals the more time it takes to review the overall quality and relevance.
There is also the time it takes to coordinate the connections of 3rd party services (GSC, GA4, etc.) and reviewing those aspects.
TBH, $3,000 would be a fair price for an audit a small to mid-sized company that included all aspects a company that doesn’t compromise on touch-points and includes the time it takes to develop the report and deliver via presentation.
It depends on the audit. If it’s something standard where you can use a tool and do it by yourself, then yes, that price is a bit high. But it also depends on the size of the website.
If it involves discovering really complex issues that literally prevent your website from showing up or growing, or whatever, it’s quite average. It’s literally the difference between life and death for your website, so it depends on how much you value your website. FYI, it’s our specialty, and we would charge that as a minimum for a mid-small website. Of course, nobody contacts us to check H1 tags or site speed, because it would be nonsensical; people who contact us do so after all hope is lost and they’re losing (or lost) everything.
It depends on the size and complexity of the website. My audits start at $5k and go up to over $15k.
It’s high, but it’s not unusual from larger SEO companies to charge that fee. For smaller agencies like myself I generally perform audits for free if I’m interested in working with them, but generally you should be paying less than $500 unless you have a large, complex website.
Depends on size of your website. Can you provide details of number of pages and niche?
You could always download Screaming Frog, it can give you a comprehensive list of potential issues on your site.
I do think 3,000$ is *a lot*
Too high.
Hundreds for Online services to do a Audit.
Free to about $49
The cost is the work to fix them all, not telling you what is wrong.
Stick your URL in any of them and get a decent feel for free in 3 minunutes
Pushing back on a few of the comments and lines of thoughts presented below, since there seems to be three main arguments-
* It’s too high.
* It’s too low.
* Audits are trash.
For the ‘it’s too high’ crowd, most commenters seem to be taking the “scan and style” mindset. Use a 3rd party tool, scan the site, and assume the issues turned up matter, then style it into a presentation. If that is all you get, you wasted $500.
For the “it’s too low” crowd, there seems to be a mindset that real audits are going to require more significant dives into the business and its site. The problem with that is most small businesses (a) can’t afford that kind of audit and (b) probably don’t have the business or technical complexity that would necessitate a heavy handed approach. So, if OP went your way, they’d still be wasting money.
For the audits are trash folks- maybe its just your audits.
We do a base level scan (free) and look at GA and GSC (free) and may even do a basic code review (free) to determine the pricing of our audits. So we do a bit of a mini audit to price the fuller audit. If your 150 pages all exist on a new domain, and use 3 WordPress templates, and you have a pretty straightforward business, we can go cheaper. If you’re launching some new revolutionary AI tool with an ill defined product-market fit and you’re running a headless front end that was vibe coded by your CTO, we’ll probably charge you more.
Nahh, until and unless that agency has worked with some big wigs, charging $3k for just an audit is preposterous.
Btw, there’s no on-going rate for an audit. You can get one done for as low as $100 and go as high as $10K+, also there’s no denying the fact that expensive doesn’t necessarily mean helpful. I have had clients who paid >2k/audit only to get a generic audit report from ahrefs and i have worked with clients who got their audit done for $500 and we went on to use it and get actual revenue.

It all depends on the size of the site. I charge based on less than 10k/pages vs more than 10k pages. I’ve done a couple site audits with a few hundred thousand pages too.
For a smaller site (less than 10k pages) I charge $1,500. For larger sites, I’ll double the price. Anything over 100k pages will cost around 3-5k.
My site audits normally take about 10 hours for a small site and about 20-30 hours for a larger site. My site audit checklist is 400 lines in my Excel sheet. Not saying I’m right/wrong, but site audits can be as big or small as you want.
I always base on the meds of the client though. Not every client wants a comprehensive audit.
In the end, it depends how good the SEO is and how much time it will take them. Hope this helps. Good luck!
It all depends on the country. If you are from the US, should be fine.
feeling like a fool for offering free SEO audit on Reddit.
Depends who you are hiring and what they’ll actually do. I would not consider doing an audit for that price, it’s not worth my time.
My fee is 40€ per hour and usually an audit of 12-15 pages takes me 10-15 hours (even with writing detailed deficiencies). I think 150 URL addresses is about the optimal amount when I calculate that it is ten times. It should be a total of 4000€ +, but the price is always a matter of agreement. A lot depends on whether the audit is done by a senior with 25 years of experience or a young, inexperienced junior.

The cost is some kudos (24 hours only)
£1,000 day rate is not uncommon for decent agency service. Your site is small and it is unlikely that your issues are very difficult to spot and find a solution for. I’d say £3k for a proper bespoke audit is about the minimum.
However you’re asking in a forum where some people charge £1,000 a day and there’s a guy below who said he charges 40eur an hour so…
Some conduct audits as a bespoke consultancy service. Others will use platforms to set up automated projects and just export a list of checklist problems. Your mileage varies massively.
It depends on the depth of the review. If you’re looking for analysis and detailed recommendations that start at the macro level and then dive into the micro on a page-by-page basis, then $3k is about right.
If you’re looking to keep it macro, ie “here are your problem areas, here’s how to fix them”, then $3k is too high.
$3k is not high.
No, that doesn’t seem high at all.
There is a wide variety of prices because there are a wide variety of capabilities from SEO auditors. The average checklist audit is worth ~$0 or negative.
$3000 for an audit is obscene.
I do a monthly readout for my freelance clients — than includes reporting/assessment + technical audit for $235/month
EDIT: 99% of an audit work is done by the tool they use — Sitebulb for instance literally will tell you the issues, you just have to know how to read/fix them
Pay peanuts get monkeys
Not high.
