Prices

Business Fit

Omni Search Labs works with small businesses with fewer than 500 employees, typically—but not always—generating at least $200,000 in annual revenue. The studio is built for owner-led companies rather than enterprise corporations and serves businesses throughout Rhode Island and Southeastern Massachusetts.

Read more

The team works with businesses that:

  • Have never invested in SEO
  • Previously hired an agency and experienced declining rankings
  • Rank well on Google but are invisible in AI search tools
Engagements

Search optimization has no minimum spend requirement. Engagements range from targeted, one-off technical remediations to comprehensive Managed SEO programs. The studio offers fixed-price engagements and determines priorities based on each business's starting point.

AI search optimization is included as part of modern SEO rather than charged as a separate line item.
