What a lovely day to start with a cup of coffee, sit down before the computer and get to work. The sunbeams are slightly tickling your face, comforting you and filling up with energy.

As an SEO expert or digital marketer, you’ve got a lot of projects to work on. No worries, you open the toolbox and take a free Keyword Finder, Rank Tracker, Link Manager, you open the chamber and take Google Analytics, you walk into the Google Adwords to deepen into the world of ad campaigns and other free tools.

You’re absolutely concerned that the more projects you can close the more money you’ll make, but unfortunately, the limit is around 9. The feeling that you’re armed with a bunch of free tools pleases you because you have invested minimum resources into getting the ball rolling. Yes, of course, it required certain effort to build a network (find clients, create connections, etc.)

You’ve got some of your loyal clients who are ready to pay you up to one 100$ per hour. All in all, you’re doing well. However, whenever another motivational video pops up or you see a more successful fellow on the horizon, you feel that things might have been better. This feeling doesn’t let you go easily and intensifies when the night comes.

A leap of faith

How much money can an SEO or digital marketing agency make? Is it difficult to start your own SEO business? Before we answer these questions, take time to ask yourself these ones.

• How much money do you want to make?
• What are the projects that you want to be working on?
• How can you automate the process and optimize the time you spend as a freelancer?
• Why are you a freelancer yet?
• How can you be resourceful enough to shift your standards and lift your services to another level by opening a digital marketing agency?

While you’re thinking about these questions, and we recommend you actually take time to process them and let them stay with you for a while, here is a quick fact:

“71% of freelancers get less than $1,000 from each client each month, compared to 46% of agencies.”

“Agencies are also more likely to bring in more clients, with 53% of agencies winning over 11 clients in 2017. In comparison, 58% of freelancers won under five.” , according to BrightLocal.

In most, if not all cases digital marketing and SEO agencies are far ahead of ordinary freelancers. That being said, it’s more profitable to start an SEO or digital marketing business today than ever before.

There is a lot of fish in the sea, however, there always will be a place for another one.

“…I probably made about $35k the first year. The second time, about 6 years later, we did nearly 10x that in our first year (2 of us and some freelancers).

The differences: 1) experience, 2) I learned how to sell, focusing on what the client really needs, 3) I had a very established network and a strong reputation.” – says kpclaypool at Reddit.

Are you afraid of competition? Don’t. All those agencies out there are sailing their own directions, but their boats are not without faults. Find the flaws in their corpuses using Competitors Inspector and beat them.

That’s good money. Today it isn’t that complicated to start any business, you simply need to be brave and never stop no matter what. It’s okay to play it safe. You can start building a digital marketing agency with no coding skills required and stick to your regular job.

You might be skeptical about making an investment and starting your own business, however, maybe the fact that, according to Venturebeat, an average American spends 857$ on monthly subscriptions (HBO, Netflix, social media, etc.) will inspire you to optimize your expenses and make smart investments only.

$69 to start an SEO business

$69.95 is a cost of the monthly Optimal plan at RankActive that will give you full access to our platform where you will find a variety of tools for digital marketers as well as SEO experts.

Why is it the best competitive option on the market? Because not a single SEO software platform allowed you to build a digital marketing agency under your own name.

By pointing the platform to your domain name and completely replacing all the details with your own brand name and identity you can deliver digital marketing and SEO services to the clients.

It’s possible to hit even higher monthly revenue goals if you choose the right clients and define the most effective strategy. It makes sense because it’s much more productive to target a few expensive clients than dozens of cheap ones.

Is it worth it?

Starting your own business is never too late regardless if you’re 40, 50 or 60 years old. If you’re tired of a freelance routine or your 5/9 job, then a $69 investment for having a chance and opportunity to launch a successful digital marketing agency is a game worth playing.

We provide all the necessary tools and features that are required for quite a favorable start for every digital marketer or an SEO expert out there. What it takes are $69, courage and a never-ending desire to make a better future for yourself.
