iGaming SEO Pricing & Packages | ZMastery
Start Small. Prove It. Scale Up.
Every engagement starts with a low-risk, fixed-scope deliverable — not a long-term contract. You see the work before you commit further budget. Audit fees are credited toward your next tier if you proceed within 30 days. This is the same approach behind how we took one operator from 100 to 20,000+ monthly visitors in 6 months — want to know who's behind that number? Meet the team.

Authority Network & Link Ecosystem
A private, niche-relevant domain network built and configured for your brand — and handed to you outright. Most operators have rented someone else's network before and watched it get deindexed. This one is yours: a capital asset you keep whether or not you stay with ZMastery.
| Tier | Domains | Setup Fee | Monthly Maintenance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | 10–15 | $3,500–$5,500 | $400–$600/mo |
| Growth | 25–35 | $9,000–$14,000 | $800–$1,100/mo |
| Authority | 50+ | $18,000–$30,000+ | $1,500–$2,200/mo |
Setup fee covers domain acquisition (passed through at cost), clean-IP hosting dispersal, initial content, and first-round link deployment. Monthly maintenance covers hosting, uptime, content refresh, and new link cycles. Quoted per project after a scoping call — this can be added independently of the retainer.

Do you need access to our CMS or backend?
No. For the Money Page & Compliance Revamp, we deliver implementation-ready specs — exact copy, schema, internal linking, and pre-cleared compliance language — that your dev team pastes in on your own release schedule. We don't need to touch your site directly.
Does the audit fee actually count toward anything?
Yes. If you move to the Money Page Revamp or the Retainer within 30 days of your audit, the audit fee is credited in full toward that engagement.
Is the Authority Network Build required before the Retainer?
No — they're independent tracks. You can take the Retainer without the network, the network without the Retainer, or both together. The network is a one-time infrastructure investment you own outright; the Retainer is ongoing execution.
Are these prices fixed, or do they change per market?
Entry and Technical Audits are fixed-price. Everything above that — Money Page Revamp, Authority Network, and multi-market Retainers — is scoped on a free call, since the work depends on your current site, target markets, and regulatory footprint.
What currency do you bill in, and how do we pay?
All engagements are quoted and billed in USD. Audits are paid by card at checkout; Money Page Revamp, Authority Network, and Retainer invoices support bank transfer or card, arranged on your scoping call.
Do you require a long-term contract for the Retainer?
No. The Retainer runs month-to-month with no lock-in — you can cancel anytime. We'd rather earn the renewal each month than lock you into a term.
How fast will we see results after starting?
African markets like Nigeria and Kenya typically show meaningful ranking movement in 3 to 6 months, due to lower keyword competition than European markets. The Money Page Revamp and Authority Network work faster on conversion metrics since they target pages already receiving traffic.
Can we go straight to the Retainer without doing an audit first?
Yes, though we still run a lightweight internal audit before proposing a Retainer scope — it's just folded into onboarding rather than billed separately. Most clients prefer the paid audit first since it's a smaller commitment and gives you a written roadmap either way.
What happens if we disagree with the audit findings?
We walk through the findings on a call before you decide on next steps. There's no obligation to proceed to any paid tier after an audit — the roadmap is yours to keep and act on independently if you'd rather.
Do you offer discounts for multi-market campaigns?
Multi-market Retainers (starting at $5,000/mo) are priced per market on a sliding scale rather than as separate full-price retainers stacked together — ask your strategist for the breakdown for your specific markets.
Who owns the content and pages you create for us?
You do, in every case. Content, specs, and on-site work produced under any tier belong to you outright, whether or not you continue working with us.
What if our dev team can't implement the Money Page specs quickly?
The specs are written to sit in your dev queue with no dependency on us, so there's no expiry. If you'd like us to walk your dev team through the handoff live, that's included at no extra cost.
Do you sign an NDA before the audit?
Yes, available on request before any audit begins — common for operators who don't want competitor or partner details shared.
What's actually included in "compliance-aware content"?
Copy and page structure written to satisfy local regulatory requirements (NLRC in Nigeria, BCLB in Kenya, GRA in Ghana) — required disclaimers, age-gating language, and responsible-gambling messaging — without burying your conversion copy under legal boilerplate.
Can we cancel the Retainer mid-month?
Yes. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing month with no penalty — we just ask for notice before the next invoice is generated.
Do you work with affiliate sites, or only licensed operators?
Both. Affiliate and comparison sites have different compliance and monetization considerations than licensed operator sites, and we scope accordingly on the call.
