Done-For-You SEO Program

Save time, AND have your SEO done right the first time.

How SEO Has Changed

And Why Foundational SEO Still Works

SEO hasn’t stopped working, but the way results show up has evolved.

In recent years, search engines have become more sophisticated about what they surface and how people interact with results. In 2025, especially, multiple shifts happened at once: stronger content quality enforcement, expanded local search features, AI-generated answers, and major core algorithm updates.

Together, these changes altered how SEO success often looks — not whether SEO works.

Many practice owners now experience SEO progress as:

• Steady or improving rankings
• Increased search impressions
• Stronger visibility in local results
• Greater familiarity with their practice name

Sometimes, without an immediate spike in clicks.

That doesn’t mean SEO is failing.
It means SEO is doing more of its work before the click.

What This Means for Your Practice

Today, search visibility often shapes trust and understanding before someone ever visits a website.

A potential client may:

• See your service pages appear consistently in search
• Recognize your name across related searches
• Feel confident you’re a good fit before clicking

Foundational SEO supports this process by making sure your practice appears clear, credible, and consistent wherever people encounter it.

This kind of visibility builds familiarity, and familiarity builds trust.

Why Foundational SEO Is a Strong Investment

Despite all the changes in search, the core elements of effective SEO remain the same.

Strong foundational SEO still focuses on:

• Clear, well-structured service pages
• Helpful, experience-based content written for real people
• Ethical optimization aligned with search engine guidelines
• Local SEO signals that reinforce trust and relevance
• A technically sound website that supports long-term growth

When these elements are in place, SEO continues to be one of the most reliable ways to support sustainable visibility and client growth over time.

Our Done-For-You SEO Foundation is designed to build exactly that: a strong, ethical base that helps your practice remain visible, understandable, and trustworthy as search continues to evolve.

SEO may look quieter than it once did, but it’s far more durable.

So, How Does AI Fit into the SEO Picture?

AI, AEO, and GEO Best Practices Are Built on SEO Foundations

Search is no longer limited to traditional search engines alone. Large language models and AI-powered search tools now influence how people find information and providers. This includes Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO).

However, these newer search experiences cannot function without strong traditional SEO.

AI systems rely on the same foundational signals search engines do: clear site structure, helpful content, topical authority, technical integrity, and trust signals. Without those elements in place, AI tools have nothing reliable to reference, summarize, or surface.

Our Done-For-You SEO Foundation intentionally incorporates AI best practices by:

• Structuring content so it is easy for both search engines and AI systems to understand

• Creating clear, experience-based content that demonstrates expertise and trust

• Optimizing site architecture and internal linking for comprehension, not shortcuts

• Building layered authority that supports visibility across evolving search environments

We approach AEO and GEO as extensions of ethical SEO, not replacements for it. By building layer upon layer on a strong SEO foundation, we position your website to meet the requirements of both traditional search engines and emerging AI-driven search strategies.

This ensures your visibility is not tied to a single platform or trend, but supported by a durable, future-ready foundation.

Clear Communication

The Simplified SEO Data Dashboard to keep track of the month’s assigned work and rankings/data, a dedicated SEO specialist “point person” for your website, monthly check-in or planning calls, access to the private Facebook group for global trends, and updates, and more.

Fully Optimized Pages

Our proven, proprietary process covers specific search engine ranking factors that work well for private practice websites. These factors are primarily considered “on-page” optimization so that both the “bots” and your ideal clients are compelled to see and contact you.

Data-Driven Suggestions

Review the data with you during monthly planning meetings, and give data-informed suggestions for additional things you can do to boost the SEO for your website moving forward.

Two important things to keep in mind:

1. SEO takes time.
2. You don’t have to invest in SEO forever.

So, these two things might seem a bit contradictory, so hang with us for a minute here. The truth is, it takes time to build trust with SEO.

We’ve found that it is usually more effective for us to go really in-depth, optimizing a few strategic pages at a time instead of doing a little bit of work on a lot of pages at once. Therefore, our approach is to do very in-depth work on a few pages and/or ranking factors each month until you begin receiving regular contacts from potential new clients. The strategy is flexible and individualized, grounded in the values of the mental health community. This traditional, on-page comprehensive optimization strategy in our Done-For-You Program is a 3, 6, 9, or 12-month commitment, depending on location competitiveness and long term goals.

New clients can expect a customized and individualized approach to their SEO strategy, in partnership with their assigned SEO team of specialists and reviewers. During this intensive, 6-month portion of the SEO journey, clients can generally expect that their services pages will be fully optimized, blog posts encouraged and optimized, and a list management strategy to be implemented to properly prepare their website for sustainable, stable SEO success. The exact strategy will be based on your individual practice needs, as the assigned SEO team will adapt to the needs of each client on a monthly basis.

For each page of your website that we optimize, we will generally:

• Do keyword research to identify the specific keywords your ideal clients are using in the area you live (or offer counseling services)

• Write a quality Meta Description for readers to see in search results

  1. Optimize Headings & Subheadings for accessibility, SEO, and site structure
  2. Optimize at least 3 optimized photos per page contracted each month
     • We will add alt text to all photos currently on the page and if needed will add additional photos.  If you do not like the photos we choose to add, we will replace each photo once to make sure you have photos consistent with your brand that will also help you rank for the keywords we’re targeting. We typically use BigStock photos if we are adding them to your site.
     • We do not do photo editing such as adding filters to photos.  Therefore, some of our site owners choose to add their own photos to ensure brand consistency across the site.
  3. Add internal links to other pages on your website. Unless you have a preference otherwise, we typically place these in a “Call to Action” and an “Other Services” section near the bottom of each page. These sections include many internal links pointing to other pages from the optimized page. Internal links are added in the main body of the page as well when appropriate.
  4. Do Basic Copy Editing – We will edit the body of your text to help use language that will improve your ranking and convert clients. This includes:
     • Naturally incorporating keywords into your text
     • Improving Readability by shortening sentences, reducing passive voice on the page, adding transition words, adding sentences or even short sections to include keywords, etc. We are most effective with this part on WordPress sites because we use the Yoast plugin.
     • If needed, we may add short sections with keyword-dense subheadings. For instance, we may add a section called “Symptoms of _____” that then lists the symptoms. Another example would be a section called “Counseling helps _____” which is meant to provide the client with hope
     • We try to use client-friendly, easy-to-understand language whenever possible and incorporate everything we’ve learned about compelling copywriting from reading blog posts & books, attending training, listening to podcasts, etc.
     • Please note: If your page needs to be completely rewritten we will ask that you do that or charge our copywriting fee.
  5. Request Indexing of your pages by Google

New clients commit to at least3, 6, 9, or 12 months of intensive, ongoing, comprehensive SEO services. This is because SEO doesn’t happen overnight. We’ve found that 6-9 months of ongoing, customized SEO services tend to deliver the best possible results for most of our clients. Clients with multiple specialties, multiple clinicians, and/or in highly competitive areas may need to plan on 9 – 12 months of active Done-For-You SEO work.

The main thing we want you to know is that you aren’t paying for this intensive level of services indefinitely, but it will take a while.

SEO is not an instant process.

After our clients finish using our comprehensive SEO services, many of our clients move to an Alumni/Maintenance package for at least 6-months to provide support to sustain these efforts. This is because you want to continue to monitor traffic to your website, be aware of any major changes in the SEO world, and do a few other things to keep your SEO up. But know that after you rank pretty well, your site just doesn’t need the same intense level of work. So, our Alumni packages are meant to help clients continue to have support to maintain their rankings with slight, gradual improvements.


You will meet with our staff via Zoom every month. These 60-minute calls are planned strategically in order to give you time to develop new content, as needed. In the first month, we’ll give you an overview of what to expect working with us, and make recommendations about what order to target pages to get you the best return on investment and your individual preferences. We will also discuss your SEO goals, your local market, etc. Most importantly, this is your chance to ask us questions.

After the first month, you’ll use the calls to give us feedback so we can fine-tune our approach and ensure we exceed your expectations! During this call, one of our staff will review your data with you so you understand the impact of what we’ve done so far and we can discuss how to tweak our strategy if we’re not getting the results we hoped for. Furthermore, we’ll begin planning what pages or SEO tasks our staff will work on in the upcoming month.

These Zoom calls are required for the first two months but are optional in future months.

Our job is to make sure that your website is well-suited for optimal rankings on the most popular search engines. So, there is an onboarding fee assessed for all new clients. During (or before) the first month of service:

• Clients will have a 45-60 minute onboarding session with at least one member of their SEO team, during which they will receive login credentials for the Simplified SEO Data Dashboard tool, used for the duration of our active SEO and Alumni relationship.

• A baseline technical site audit will be conducted with technical suggestions sent,

• A structural review of the website will be conducted with suggestions sent

  • e.g. identifying H1s, additional services pages needed, footer information, NAP information, basic structure, etc.

• The Home page meta description will be updated to reflect the current needs/goals of the client with relevant SEO practices

• Baseline keyword research, with location indicators, will be completed and added to the tracking portion of the client’s Data Dashboard

• Baseline SEO competitor research will be completed

• Google Analytics, Google Search Console, and Google Business Profile accounts will be connected by either the SEO Specialist and/or client to establish baseline analytics

• Additional SEO suggestions will be made, in response to client goals, needs, and market

Copywriting can be added to any plan at any time. All you need to do is speak to your SEO Specialist about your specific copywriting needs, and options for AI-assisted or Traditional copywriting will be added on at a discounted cost for current clients.


No. We plan our staffing and software subscriptions around the plans as they are contracted. That is why we try to make the consultation and client care process very thorough so you are able to make an educated decision about your Done-For-You package. In very limited cases (ex: You have a major medical issue or family emergency and can’t get content up in time to meet the deadlines) our SEO specialist will make recommendations to use your points in line with your SEO goals. However, with supervisor approval, it may be possible to carry over points from a single month once during the duration of your 6-month intensive SEO journey.


Our contract for service is for a consecutive 3, 6, 9, or 12-month commitment. It is important to understand that SEO is an investment that is meant to be intensive for a time-limited season and then maintained appropriately to sustain rankings and growth. We’ve found that it is difficult to see results without at least 3 to 6-months of consistent work using a proven strategy. Further, we plan our staffing and software subscriptions based on your commitment to services. Therefore, we do respectfully enforce our contract terms.

In extreme circumstances (ex: You decide to close your practice), you can talk to our supervisors about potentially ending a contract early, but you will incur a fee of at least $100 per month left on the contract to help cover the cost of what we have invested in our own tools and staffing with the anticipation of working on your site.


If you want to continue with Done-For-You Services past your contracted period, you can! After completion of your contract, you can continue services on a month-to-month basis, or even explore one of our many Alumni Options.


Measurable results will depend on many factors including how long you’ve owned your domain, if you’ve done previous SEO work, the amount of relevant copy already on your website, how competitive of an area in which you live, etc. That said, most of our clients in our traditional SEO program have started to notice at least some direct benefits of the SEO work we do by the end of month 4.

If you’re on the plan we recommend and still not seeing at least a small increase in calls by the end of month 4, we may start to talk about a way to change up your strategy. Luckily, this Done-For-You SEO Program allows your SEO specialist to make this change to your strategy midway through your work as needed. We believe in being data-driven and listening to you as the client, so we will individualize our approach based on that.

Our flexible, customizable, foundational on-page SEO program is designed to meet your practice needs and goals long-term. Each package includes a monthly planning meeting, access to our private Facebook group & a shared Data Dashboard to monitor your SEO progress during your active SEO work with our company.

Please note: All new clients to our SEO services incur a one-time onboarding fee of $350 assessed at the beginning of their work with us. Clients who take a “break” from our services without maintaining a basic “tools” package will incur another onboarding fee.

Our Done-For-You (DFY) SEO service is ideal for helping professionals who want to consistently improve their online visibility without having to do the heavy lifting themselves.

New Clients Will Be Charged a One-time Onboarding Fee of $350

Contract Length, Monthly Price, Total Value Added:

3 Months:

$1350/Month – Includes schema for the Home, About, and FAQ pages + AI best practices + Comprehensive On-Page SEO + backlink resources + About Page Audit + Home Page Audit

9 Months:  

$1,150/month –  Includes schema for the Home, About, and FAQ pages + AI best practices + Comprehensive On-Page SEO + backlink resources + About Page Audit + Home Page Audit

6 Months:  

$1,250/month –  Includes schema for the Home, About, and FAQ pages + AI best practices + Comprehensive On-Page SEO + backlink resources + About Page Audit + Home Page Audit

12 Months:

  $1,050/month –  Includes schema for the Home, About, and FAQ pages + AI best practices + Comprehensive On-Page SEO + backlink resources + About Page Audit + Home Page Audit

Disclaimer: Our 3-month SEO package offers flexibility for those unable to commit long-term and provides increased impressions and online visibility to boost brand recognition. However, SEO typically takes 6–12 months or more to generate significant calls or new clients, so this package is not considered our most effective option for long-term results.

Longer commitments offer more savings, while all plans receive the same high-quality optimizations and technical enhancements.
