What does the $1,500 pilot include?
Up to five focused pages, mobile-first request and click-to-call paths, on-page SEO foundations, verified inquiry delivery with a clear thank-you state, performance and accessibility checks, and one organized written revision round. Payment is $750 after the agreement and $750 after final written approval, before launch.
Is a phone call required?
No. Onboarding, access, direction, requests, feedback, approvals, and launch are handled by email. A short call is optional only before the project if you want one, and it never continues into delivery.
What does the client need to provide?
Accurate business facts, your actual service area and priority services, content and images you have rights to use, and secure collaborator access to the accounts the project needs. Typical timing is 7-10 business days once the agreement, deposit, complete content, and required access are all received.
Who owns the domain and website accounts?
You do. Your domain stays in your own registrar account, critical accounts stay in your name, and access is delegated through secure collaborator invitations, never by emailing passwords or recovery codes.
Does Fieldline guarantee leads or rankings?
No. The work improves clarity, technical foundations, and inquiry delivery. Traffic, rankings, and business results cannot be guaranteed, and any provider promising them should be questioned.
What is included in Web Care?
Optional after launch at $99/month after a Fieldline build, or $149/month on an existing site: one original SEO article each week, monthly search review when Search Console is connected, a tested request path, uptime and SSL monitoring, a plain request count, up to 30 minutes of small edits, one seasonal featured-service swap, a current review link, domain renewal coordination, a backup where the platform supports it, and a short status email. Third-party fees and larger work are separate.
What is the full SEO + AEO package?
The full package is $249/month for a compatible local-service site. It includes two original research-led articles each week, on-page SEO and internal-link improvements, accurate FAQ and LocalBusiness structured-data review where appropriate, Search Console review, a prioritized technical issue queue, local-profile opportunity notes, and a plain monthly evidence report. It does not promise rankings, traffic, or leads.
What happens before I pay?
You receive the written scope, exclusions, timeline, price, and agreement. The $750 deposit is requested only after the agreement is accepted.
What does not fit the pilot?
Ecommerce, customer portals, complex booking, large migrations, custom software, advertising, and ongoing SEO campaigns require a separate scope.
