Search Care — monthly search health
A fixed monthly search-health retainer for businesses that want ongoing technical and on-page care with honest reporting — not a content mill, link-building campaign or ranking promise. You get capped implementation time, Search Console and GA4 review, and a plain-English readout each month.

Problems this solves
01
You bought an SEO audit but nobody is applying the next fixes.

Search Console warnings pile up between busy months.
03
Agencies quote R15,000+/mo retainers you do not need yet.
04
You want measurement and light on-page care without a content factory.
05
Previous SEO retainers promised rankings and delivered vague activity reports.

Frequently asked questions
How is Search Care different from a full SEO retainer?
Full growth retainers typically fund continuous content production and link acquisition at R8,000–R30,000+/mo. Search Care is deliberately narrower: health monitoring, reporting and a capped batch of technical/on-page fixes. We do not sell ranking promises.
Do I need the Analytics & Conversion Tracking Setup first?
If tracking is already healthy, we build on it. If not, the once-off Analytics & Conversion Tracking Setup (R2 950) gets GA4, Tag Manager and conversion events in place first — or we include that as a prerequisite quote.
What does Search Care cost?
R3 950 per month, month-to-month. Measurement & Reporting alone is R1 250/mo if you only need dashboard and conversion reporting without implementation hours.
Will you guarantee page-one rankings?
No. No honest provider can. Search Care improves technical health and on-page clarity within a capped scope; visibility still depends on competition, content depth, authority and work outside this retainer.
