SEO pricing · Afghanistan
How much does SEO cost in Afghanistan?
There is no single price for SEO in Afghanistan: it depends on the size of your site, how many languages you publish, how competitive your keywords are, and whether the work is a one-time fix or an ongoing job. Owners often ask it as “how much does SEO cost” or type “سیو” in Dari, but the honest answer starts with what is included, not a number. We give a fixed quote after a short call, and we never promise a position in Google.
What the price is actually for
A quote can cover very different things: research, rewriting pages, fixing titles and headings, a Google Business Profile, technical fixes, new pages, or ongoing reporting. Two quotes with the same total can describe completely different work. Ask for a list of tasks in plain language, and ask who writes the text and in which language. That list, not the headline figure, is what you are comparing.
The size of the site and the languages
A five-page site in one language is a different job from a shop with hundreds of products or a clinic with separate Dari, Pashto and English pages. Each language needs its own titles, descriptions and text written by a speaker, and each extra page needs research. Tell the studio how many pages exist now and how many you plan to add, because that changes the work more than any other single thing.
Competition in your market
Some words are crowded, with many businesses and agencies targeting them, while others are quiet. A studio has to study who already appears for your words, how strong their pages and profiles are, and how people actually type the search in Kabul or in your city. Where competition is heavy, honest work takes more time, and anyone quoting as if it were easy is either guessing or planning to do very little.
One-time fixes and ongoing work
Some problems are fixed once: a missing title, a broken profile, a page that mixes three languages. Other work continues: new pages, new products, answers to what customers ask, and checking that the site still loads quickly. Decide which kind you are buying. A monthly arrangement should say what happens each month and what you receive, not just that you are on SEO.
How to compare quotes, and how we quote
Ask each studio for the task list, the languages covered, who owns the accounts and content, and what happens if you stop. Be careful with anyone who guarantees a first place or a fixed number of visitors, because no one controls Google's results. We ask a few questions on WhatsApp, have a short call about your business and your market, then send one fixed quote for the work described. If something is outside that scope, we say so before starting.
What you get
- Research for your real search terms in Dari, Pashto and English
- A written task list and one fixed quote
- Page titles, descriptions and on-page structure
- Google Business Profile setup and cleanup
Is SEO a one-time cost or a monthly fee?
It can be either, depending on what is wrong and what you sell. Fixing titles, descriptions and a profile is usually a defined piece of work, while new products, new pages and regular checks continue. The quote should say clearly which one you are paying for.
Why is one SEO quote so much cheaper than another?
Often the cheaper quote covers fewer pages, one language instead of three, or no writing at all. Sometimes it is a template report that changes nothing on the site. Ask both studios to list the tasks, and compare those lists rather than the totals.
My web site is not finished. Should SEO wait until launch?
Some basics belong in the build: page titles, headings, clean addresses, light images and the right language tags. Waiting until launch usually means paying twice to undo decisions. You can start with those basics and add research and content once the pages exist.
Do you guarantee that we reach the first page?
No. Anyone who guarantees a position is either guessing or planning to use methods that can hurt you later. We fix what is in your control, explain what we see in your market, and report what changed. The ranking itself depends on Google and on competitors.
What happens after I send a message?
We reply on WhatsApp within one working day and ask about your business, your pages and the languages you need. Then we arrange a short call, and after that you receive a fixed quote for the described work. There is no charge for that first conversation.
