SEO Services for WordPress Sites, From an Agency That Runs on WordPress

SEO services for WordPress improve a WordPress site's technical setup, content and authority so it ranks higher in Google and gets cited in AI answers. Lifted Websites has run WordPress SEO campaigns from Scottsdale, AZ since 2009, and this site runs the same stack we tune for clients: WordPress, Yoast and Elementor on Rocket.net with Cloudflare Enterprise. Plans start at $800/mo, and every price is published below.

What Do WordPress SEO Services Include?

WordPress SEO services are search optimization work built around how WordPress actually behaves: the theme, the plugin stack, the page builder and the host all shape what Google can crawl. WordPress powers more than 40% of all websites, so the platform is rarely the problem. The setup usually is. A complete engagement covers four areas:

  • Technical SEO: site architecture, permalinks, crawl and indexation fixes, Core Web Vitals, plugin-conflict cleanup, and Yoast or Rank Math set page by page instead of left on defaults.
  • On-page and schema: keyword-mapped titles, headings and internal links, plus structured data on every key template so pages qualify for rich results and AI citations.
  • Content: answer-first service pages and posts through our SEO blog writing service, published in Gutenberg or Elementor without breaking schema or speed.
  • Authority: white-hat link building, unlinked-mention reclamation, and internal links that move strength from your best pages to the pages that sell.

Why Hire a WordPress SEO Company That Lives on WordPress?

A WordPress SEO company that builds and hosts WordPress sites can fix what it finds the same week, instead of handing you a PDF for your developer. Most agencies treat WordPress as one CMS among many. We build on it, maintain it and rank with it daily.

One example from our own site: in 2026 we moved liftedwebsites.com off Pressable to Rocket.net because the old host was blocking AI crawlers and its edge cache was weak. Most WordPress SEO audits never check whether GPTBot, ClaudeBot or PerplexityBot can reach the site. Ours do, because we learned it on our own rankings.

Our WordPress web design team ships technical fixes in house, and our WordPress maintenance plans protect the rankings a campaign earns. Every campaign runs on Ahrefs, Semrush and BrightLocal data with CallRail call tracking, so reports show calls and form fills, not only ranking positions.

How to Hire a WordPress SEO Agency: 5 Things to Check

Ask these five questions before you sign with any WordPress SEO agency, including us:

  1. Do they publish prices? If the price only appears after a sales call, expect the price to depend on how the call went.
  2. Can they implement, or only advise? An audit nobody implements changes nothing. Ask who edits the theme, the plugins and the templates.
  3. Do they check hosting and AI crawler access? A host that blocks AI bots or serves slow first bytes caps everything else.
  4. What do they report? Rankings are a means. Ask whether they track calls and leads by page.
  5. Do they promise rankings? Google's own guidance warns against anyone who guarantees a #1 spot. Walk away from that pitch.

Our WordPress SEO Process

1. Audit. A full crawl plus a WordPress layer: theme code weight, plugin conflicts, Core Web Vitals, Yoast settings, schema validity, hosting speed and AI crawler access. Findings are ranked by impact so month one moves something.

2. Keyword mapping. Every page gets a target checked in both Ahrefs and Semrush. When the tools disagree, we plan against the more conservative number.

3. Technical and on-page fixes. Built by our in-house team: architecture, internal links, schema and speed.

4. Content and links. Answer-first pages aimed at the keyword map, plus authority building that earns links instead of renting them.

5. Report in leads. CallRail ties rankings to calls and forms, so you see what the campaign produced every month.

How Much Do WordPress SEO Services Cost?

Lifted Websites WordPress SEO costs $800/mo for one location, $2,000/mo for up to three Google Business Profiles, and $3,000/mo and up for national or ecommerce campaigns. The full table:

Plan Price Best For
Local SEO $800/mo One managed Google Business Profile. See local SEO packages
Multi-Local Plus $2,000/mo Up to three Google Business Profiles plus unlimited location pages. Each additional profile is $800/mo

When You Don't Need a WordPress SEO Agency

⚠️ An honest filter

If you run a small site in a low-competition niche, have time to write, and your pages already load fast, a well-configured Yoast install and steady content may be enough for a while. An agency earns its fee when competitors are investing, when the site has technical debt, or when you need leads faster than you can learn SEO yourself.

Does WordPress SEO Cover AI Search?

Ours does by default. Customers now ask Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT and Perplexity, and those answers often cite different sites than the top organic results. Every WordPress SEO plan we run includes the structural work that earns AI citations: answer-first content, valid schema on every template, and standalone factual statements an engine can quote.

💡 Need the deeper AI layer?

Our AI SEO services, ChatGPT SEO and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) programs add on to any WordPress plan for brands that want measured visibility inside AI answers.

What Results Look Like

✅ From TJ's client campaigns

A national client's first head term reached Google's top 10 within three months. A roofing client that moved up to Multi-Local Plus tripled its tracked calls and doubled revenue.

Clients also describe the work in public Google reviews: one reports business growth within a few months and credits the monthly strategy calls; another, after nearly a year of website management and SEO, calls the follow-up unmatched. Read them on our Google Business Profile before you call.

WordPress SEO FAQ

Isn't Yoast SEO enough? Why hire an agency?

Yoast is a tool, not a strategy. It flags on-page basics but cannot research keywords, build links, fix Core Web Vitals, resolve plugin conflicts, write content or earn AI citations. We configure Yoast on every site, and it is a small part of the campaign.

How much do WordPress SEO services cost?

Lifted Websites WordPress SEO plans start at $800/mo for one location, $2,000/mo for up to three Google Business Profiles plus unlimited location pages (each additional profile is $800/mo), and $3,000/mo and up for national, ecommerce or highly competitive campaigns.

How long until WordPress SEO shows results?

Technical fixes often move rankings within 4 to 8 weeks. Meaningful lead growth usually lands in months 3 to 6, depending on competition and starting authority. We set the baseline in month one so progress is measured, not promised.

Do you work with WooCommerce stores?

Yes. WooCommerce runs on WordPress, so product schema, category architecture and Core Web Vitals work all apply. Larger catalogs run through our dedicated ecommerce SEO team.

Can you do SEO on a WordPress site another agency built?

Yes. Most campaigns start on sites we did not build. If the theme or plugin stack is blocking rankings, the audit shows the evidence and we quote the fix separately before any rebuild conversation.

Do you work with WordPress sites outside Arizona?

Yes. Lifted Websites is based in Scottsdale, AZ and runs WordPress SEO for businesses nationwide. Audits, fixes and monthly reporting all happen remotely, so your location does not change the plan or the price.

What this costs. WordPress SEO is usually bundled into a monthly retainer rather than sold as a one-off. We publish our rates instead of quoting them case by case, so you can see local SEO pricing and decide before you talk to anyone.

Working with TJ and Lifted Websites has been an incredible experience. I own and operate two home-service companies, each serving a unique vertical and a very specific clientele within the HVAC industry. TJ took the time to truly understand both businesses, our customers, and the vision behind each brand. The difference between Lifted Websites and the agency I previously worked with has been night and day. TJ provides a level of customized service and strategic thinking that is difficult to find. He is extremely knowledgeable and well-versed in all things AI, search, and SEO, and he understands how these technologies are changing the way customers find and choose service-based businesses. His communication is excellent, every deliverable has been completed on time, and he consistently makes the entire process feel organized and collaborative. One of the things I appreciate most is being able to bounce ideas off TJ, brainstorm together, and develop a clear strategic vision for the future. He listens, contributes thoughtful ideas, and genuinely cares about helping our businesses succeed. TJ is an absolute pleasure to work with, and I would highly recommend Lifted Websites to any home-service business looking for a knowledgeable, dependable, forward-thinking, and creative website and marketing partner.
