SEO Optimization Pricing for Ukrainian-Market Sites

The SEO Optimization packages are structured by page count. Every package includes the same five stages - site audit, keyword research, content optimization, technical fixes, and a final work report. For Ukrainian-market sites, keyword research and content optimization are calibrated to Google.ua and current Ukrainian search behavior.

This page explains how to choose the right package for your Ukrainian-market site and provides context on pricing relative to the Ukrainian market for SEO services.

Pricing in UAH Context

Package prices are in USD. For Ukrainian clients, the current approximate UAH equivalents at 2025 exchange rates: $199 ≈ 8,000-8,500 UAH, $349 ≈ 14,000-15,000 UAH, $599 ≈ 24,000-25,000 UAH, $1,199 ≈ 48,000-50,000 UAH. Exact UAH equivalent depends on the exchange rate at the time of payment - the hryvnia rate fluctuates and we do not set a fixed UAH price.

Ukrainian SEO agencies in Kyiv typically charge 15,000-50,000 UAH per month for ongoing retainer services, depending on the scope. This package is a one-time engagement - not a monthly retainer. The scope is defined (five stages, your page count), the timeline is fixed (10-45 business days), and the deliverable is a documented before/after comparison with a keyword map you retain permanently.

The difference between this package and a Ukrainian agency retainer is function: this package addresses the technical and on-page foundation. A monthly retainer may include ongoing content production, link building, and reporting. If your site has unresolved technical barriers - indexation errors, redirect chains from migrations, hreflang errors from a language transition - these limit the impact of any ongoing content or link-building work until they are fixed. This package resolves those foundations.

How Package Size Is Determined

Package size is based on the number of indexable pages on your site - pages that Googlebot can crawl and that appear in the Google index. This is not the same as the number of pages in your CMS.

Check your indexable page count in Google Search Console: Index → Pages → Indexed. This is the current count Google has processed for your domain.

Pages that count toward your package size:

• Service pages and product pages
• Blog posts and articles (published and indexed)
• Category and subcategory pages
• Landing pages, about, contact, and informational pages
• City-specific pages (Kyiv district pages, regional city pages)

Pages that do not count:

• Pages blocked by `noindex` or `robots.txt`
• Duplicate URL variants (Russian-slug and Ukrainian-slug for the same page where one redirects to the other)
• Bitrix parameter-based URLs that redirect to SEF URLs
• OpenCart filter and sort URLs set to noindex or blocked in robots.txt
• Pages that exist in the CMS but are not indexed - draft articles, staging pages, internal-only pages

For Ukrainian sites that have gone through language or domain migrations, the indexed page count may differ significantly from what you expect. The audit will clarify the exact count at the start of the package.

Package 20 - For Sites Up to 20 Pages ($199 / ~8,000-8,500 UAH)

The right choice for: Ukrainian small business sites and local service providers. A Kyiv-based accountant, lawyer, doctor, personal trainer, beauty specialist, or small IT consultancy with a homepage, 5-8 service pages, an about page, and a contact page. A startup with a product page, a features page, and a blog with a few posts.

Many Ukrainian solo practitioners and small businesses fall into Package 20. The primary value at this scale: keyword research calibrated to Ukrainian city-level queries (service + Kyiv or service + specific Ukrainian city), correction of technical indexation barriers that currently prevent the existing pages from ranking, and content optimization that ensures each page communicates its topic clearly to Google.ua.

What is included:

• SEO site audit (Google Search Console filtered to Ukraine, Ukrainian CMS configuration review, hreflang check if applicable)
• Keyword research for up to 20 pages - Ukrainian-language and/or English Ukrainian-market keywords, calibrated to Google.ua volumes via Ahrefs and Semrush Ukrainian database
• Content optimization (title, meta, H1, H2, images, internal links) on each page, with language-appropriate keyword forms for Ukrainian-language pages
• Technical fixes: indexation errors, redirect chains (including post-migration cleanup), canonical corrections, mobile usability
• Work report with before/after Health Score, keyword map, and corrections list

Timeline: 10-15 business days from CMS access confirmed.

Package 50 - For Sites of 20 to 50 Pages ($349 / ~14,000-15,000 UAH)

The right choice for: Ukrainian service companies with multiple service categories, businesses with an active Ukrainian-language blog, Joomla or Bitrix sites that have grown over several years, Ukrainian B2B companies with service documentation and case study pages, small Ukrainian e-commerce (OpenCart or Bitrix) with 20-40 product or category pages.

Ukrainian B2B companies - IT services, marketing agencies, HR firms, legal services, financial consultancies - frequently fall in the 30-50 page range. Their sites include service pages organized by offering, a case studies section, a team or about section, and a blog with 10-20 posts. At Package 50, keyword research extends to all of these page types, assigning Ukrainian-market keywords to content that was created without keyword intent.

Ukrainian company blogs and news sections often contain industry updates and announcements that attract no organic search traffic because they target no specific search queries. At Package 50, we identify which blog posts can be re-targeted to Ukrainian search queries through on-page optimization, and flag posts that cannot (event announcements, dated news) for noindex or consolidation.

What changes vs Package 20:

• Keyword research covers category pages, service subcategories, and blog posts - not just core service pages
• Ukrainian-language blog post optimization: existing posts evaluated and on-page elements adjusted for Ukrainian search queries
• Internal linking audit covering cross-category structure, not just homepage links

Timeline: 15-20 business days.

Package 100 - For Sites of 50 to 100 Pages ($599 / ~24,000-25,000 UAH)

The right choice for: established Ukrainian service businesses (larger law firms, accounting firms, clinics, construction companies), Ukrainian e-commerce with a mid-size catalogue, content-heavy Ukrainian sites (industry portals, media, analysis platforms), Bitrix sites with multiple catalog sections.

At 50-100 pages, template-level issues become significant for Ukrainian sites. Ukrainian Joomla sites built by local agencies and Bitrix sites with catalog structures generate pages from shared templates - an error in the template's canonical tag or title pattern affects every page generated from it. Fixing the template corrects the error across all affected pages simultaneously, which is efficient only at the 100-page scale where the impact is large enough to justify template-level work.

Ukrainian Bitrix sites in particular benefit from template-level work: Bitrix's information block templates, catalog templates, and section templates each generate page metadata differently. A template-level correction can resolve title tag or canonical issues across 20-30 pages in a single edit.

Package 100 includes:

• Template-level audit and fixes for Bitrix and Joomla installations
• Keyword clustering for Ukrainian-market topical authority - identifying related Ukrainian-language content opportunities where a cluster of pages can collectively rank for a topic
• Priority ranking: highest-traffic and highest-commercial-value pages for the Ukrainian market processed first
• Competitor Health Score benchmarks: 3-5 direct Ukrainian competitors audited with the same methodology to show where your site stands in the Ukrainian SERP

Timeline: 20-30 business days.

Package BIG - For Sites Over 100 Pages ($1,199 / ~48,000-50,000 UAH)

The right choice for: large Ukrainian service portals, Ukrainian content publishers and media sites, Ukrainian e-commerce with extensive Bitrix or OpenCart catalogs (100+ products), Ukrainian B2B companies with large documentation, case study, and resource libraries.

At this scale, page-by-page manual processing of every page is not feasible within the package budget. We use automated crawl tools (Screaming Frog or Sitebulb) for data collection and apply corrections in priority order: critical errors first, high-traffic pages next, then remaining pages.

Ukrainian sites at Package BIG scale often have the most complex migration histories: multiple domain changes, multiple language restructurings, and years of accumulated redirect chains. Package BIG addresses these systematically - the redirect chain consolidation work alone can be substantial for a Ukrainian e-commerce or content site with 5-10 years of URL history.

What Package BIG adds for Ukrainian sites:

• Full-site crawl with manual review of all template types used by the Ukrainian CMS
• Systematic redirect chain consolidation across the full URL migration history
• Bitrix or OpenCart URL parameter handling for filter pages and sort parameters
• Complete hreflang validation across all language versions (Ukrainian, Russian, English)
• Schema markup validation across all template types

Timeline: 30-45 business days depending on site complexity.

Which Package Suits Ukrainian Business Types

Kyiv-based local service providers (medical, legal, beauty, fitness, tutoring): Package 20 in most cases. The primary value is keyword research targeting "service + Kyiv" and specific Kyiv district queries, and fixing technical barriers preventing current pages from ranking.

Ukrainian IT companies and software development studios: Package 50 or 100. Ukrainian IT companies typically have 30-70 pages covering service offerings, technology stacks, case studies, and blog content. These sites benefit significantly from keyword research that maps Ukrainian-market and international B2B queries to existing pages that were created without a keyword strategy.

Ukrainian e-commerce (clothing, electronics, home goods, beauty products): Depends on catalogue size. A small Ukrainian OpenCart store with 20-30 categories and 50 products: Package 50. A Bitrix e-commerce site with multiple product lines and 100+ SKUs: Package 100 or BIG.

Ukrainian B2B services (accounting, HR, logistics, consulting): Package 50 or 100. Ukrainian B2B sites often have 25-60 pages of service content. These sites also benefit from keyword research that identifies Ukrainian-market English (en-UA) keyword opportunities for international client acquisition alongside Ukrainian-language national query targeting.

Ukrainian media and content platforms: Package 100 or BIG. Sites with large article archives need template-level optimization and keyword mapping across content categories, with priority ordering based on current traffic and topical value.

Ukrainian NGOs and public organizations: Pricing applies the same way as commercial sites. Package 20 typically covers most NGO sites. Contact us if your organization requires specific considerations.

What All Packages Share

Regardless of package size: 1. CMS access provided - we work directly in your Ukrainian WordPress, Joomla, Bitrix, OpenCart, or other CMS 2. Stage-by-stage process in the same sequence for every package 3. Every change documented with before/after values 4. Keyword map with Google.ua data delivered permanently to you 5. Second audit at the end comparing Health Score and Page Health Ratio

How to Choose Between Two Packages

If your Ukrainian site has exactly 20 pages but you plan to add city-specific pages for Lviv and Dnipro: Package 50 gives room for these additions without a follow-on package immediately.

If your Bitrix catalog shows 90 indexed pages in GSC but 30 are automatically generated category pages with no unique content: Count only the pages that are indexed and that you want to optimize. If most category pages are thin, Package 50 or 100 applies depending on how many priority pages exist.

If you recently migrated from `.com.ua` to `.ua` and GSC shows both domains indexed: The indexed count on the new `.ua` domain is what determines package size. Old domain pages still indexed on `.com.ua` are a technical issue addressed in the audit - they do not add to your package scope.

If you are unsure: Check Google Search Console (Index → Pages → Indexed) for your current `.ua` domain. If you do not have GSC configured, we can estimate the indexed count using a crawl tool at the start of the package.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are prices fixed or do they vary with the current USD/UAH rate? Prices are in USD. UAH equivalents quoted here are approximate at 2025 exchange rates. Payment amount in UAH depends on the exchange rate at the time of payment. We do not set fixed UAH prices.

How do your prices compare to Ukrainian SEO agencies? Ukrainian SEO agencies typically charge on a monthly retainer basis. A one-month retainer with a mid-market Kyiv agency costs 15,000-40,000 UAH, depending on scope. This package is a one-time engagement addressing specific technical and on-page foundations. It is not a substitute for ongoing content production or link building - it resolves the technical barriers that limit the impact of those activities.

Can I order a package if my site is hosted outside Ukraine? Yes. The hosting location does not affect the package. Many Ukrainian businesses host on international servers (AWS, Hetzner, OVH) rather than Ukrainian hosting providers. What matters for the package is access to your CMS admin panel, not hosting location.

Does the package cover Ukrainian and English pages separately? Yes. Ukrainian-language (uk-UA), Russian-language Ukrainian market (ru-UA), and English Ukrainian-market (en-UA) pages have separate keyword assignments and separate optimization. All language versions are covered within the total page count for your package.

What if the audit finds my Ukrainian site has fewer indexed pages than expected? A lower-than-expected indexed count is often itself a technical finding - pages blocked by indexation errors, crawl budget issues, or Bitrix/OpenCart configuration problems that prevent Google from processing them. These are addressed in the fixes stage. The package scope is based on the indexable count at the time work begins, and pages that become indexed during the package (after indexation fixes) are included if they fall within the scope.

Do you work with Ukrainian businesses that operate internationally? Yes. Ukrainian B2B companies, IT firms, and service providers with international clients often have both Ukrainian-market and international English-language content on the same site. Both are covered within the package page count. The keyword research stage separates Ukrainian-market queries from international English queries and assigns them to the appropriate pages.
