The verdict in three sentences
In Singapore, a full bespoke SEO audit costs roughly 3,000 to 9,000 SGD in 2026 for a site of 50 to 300 pages, and more for large or multilingual sites. What you pay for is days of analysis across five areas: technical, content, competitors, Google Business Profile and, for many firms, keyword research in both English and Chinese. A good audit ends with 30 to 80 prioritised recommendations that become the roadmap for ongoing work.
The itemised quote, line by line
This is a typical quote for a Singapore SME with a 50 to 150 page site, as you might receive from a consultant or a mid-sized agency. The day rate used is 900 to 1,400 SGD, a 2026 estimate for the local market, before 9 % GST.
| Line item | Scope | Days | Indicative amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| Technical audit | Crawl, indexing, Core Web Vitals, tags, 404s, hreflang | 1.5 | 1,350 to 2,100 SGD |
| Search Console analysis | Real queries, pages losing clicks, coverage | 0.5 | 450 to 700 SGD |
| Content audit | Service pages, search intent, duplicates, missing pages | 1 | 900 to 1,400 SGD |
| Keyword research EN + ZH | Separate demand analysis for English and Simplified Chinese | 1 | 900 to 1,400 SGD |
| Competitor analysis | 3 to 5 Singapore competitors, keywords and pages | 1 | 900 to 1,400 SGD |
| Google Business Profile | Categories, reviews, photos, address consistency | 0.5 | 450 to 700 SGD |
| Synthesis and prioritisation | 30 to 80 recommendations by impact and effort | 0.5 | 450 to 700 SGD |
| Walkthrough | One-hour session | 0.5 | 450 to 700 SGD |
| Total | 6.5 | 5,850 to 9,100 SGD |
Leaner quotes at 3,000 to 4,000 SGD usually drop the Chinese research and the competitor benchmark. The quote excludes implementation. Be wary of an 'audit' delivered in 24 hours at a similar price: it is usually a tool export.
Packaged visibility audit or bespoke audit
Not every SME needs six days of analysis. Choose by site size and what you plan to do next.
| Criterion | Kolonell visibility audit | Bespoke audit (typical quote) |
|---|---|---|
| Price | 100,000 FCFA (about 152 EUR) | 5,850 to 9,100 SGD |
| Areas covered | Technical, content, competitors, Google profile | Same plus bilingual research in depth |
| Recommendations | 20 to 60, prioritised | 30 to 80 |
| Turnaround | 5 to 10 days | 2 to 3 weeks |
| Credit | Deducted from setup if you start within 30 days | Rarely credited |
| Best fit | SME wanting a diagnosis before monthly work | 300+ page or multilingual site, relaunch |
Recurring costs after the audit
An audit only produces enquiries when its recommendations are implemented. Budget for what follows from day one.
| Item | Price | Frequency |
|---|---|---|
| Traffic Engine setup | 300,000 FCFA, about 457 EUR (audit credited within 30 days) | Once |
| Présence plan | 125,000 FCFA, about 191 EUR | Monthly, 12 months |
| Momentum plan | 225,000 FCFA, about 343 EUR | Monthly, 12 months |
| Flood plan | 350,000 FCFA, about 534 EUR | Monthly, 12 months |
| Local implementation by your developer | 1,000 to 3,000 SGD (2026 estimate) | Once, after audit |
Each plan includes a weekly report on rankings, traffic and enquiries. If the auditor gets access to analytics containing personal data, put a short data processing clause in place to stay aligned with Singapore's PDPA.
Mini case study
Need a professional website?
Kolonell builds websites that attract clients, optimized for the Sénégalese market. Free quote in 2 minutes.
Illustrative example: Wei Ling runs a 25-person commercial interior design firm in Singapore's Tanjong Pagar. Her 60-page site gets 1,400 visits a month but only 5 enquiries. A bespoke audit quote comes in at 6,200 SGD. She compares it with a 100,000 FCFA visibility audit, which flags 38 recommendations, including a services section blocked from indexing and no Chinese landing pages despite strong Chinese-language demand.
She fixes the blockers and adds 4 Chinese service pages. If enquiries rise to 14 a month and she wins 15 %, at 18,000 SGD margin per project, that is about 2 extra projects a month, worth roughly 36,000 SGD of margin.
FAQ
How much does a full SEO audit cost in Singapore in 2026?
Roughly 3,000 to 9,000 SGD for a bespoke audit of a 50 to 300 page site, before GST. Large or multilingual sites can exceed 10,000 SGD.
Do I need Chinese keyword research?
If you serve Mandarin-speaking clients, yes: demand and phrasing differ from English. It typically adds about one day, or 900 to 1,400 SGD, to the quote.
How long does an audit take?
Two to three weeks for a bespoke audit, 5 to 10 days for a packaged visibility audit. A 24-hour turnaround usually signals an automated report.
Is the audit fee credited if I continue?
With Kolonell, the 100,000 FCFA visibility audit is deducted from the 300,000 FCFA setup if you start within 30 days.
What should the deliverable include?
A prioritised list of 30 to 80 actions with impact, effort and owner, plus the data behind each finding. A raw tool export is not an audit.
