Quick answer: Digital marketing in Delhi typically runs from ₹12,000 a month for a single-location local business to ₹80,000+ a month for competitive categories like real estate, education and healthcare. Most Delhi NCR SMEs sit between ₹25,000 and ₹50,000 a month across one or two channels. Every engagement starts with a free audit and a fixed monthly scope — ad spend is always billed separately, and there is no lock-in beyond the agreed term.
What each service costs
These are the real ranges we quote, not placeholders. Where you land inside a range depends on competition, geography and content volume — the next section explains what moves the number.
| Service | Typical monthly range | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Local SEO | ₹15,000 – ₹30,000 | Single-location businesses — clinics, salons, showrooms, home services |
| SEO (Growth) | ₹25,000 – ₹50,000 | Service businesses targeting Delhi NCR |
| SEO (Competitive) | ₹50,000 – ₹80,000+ | Real estate, education, healthcare, B2B and pan-India brands |
| Google Ads management | ₹15,000 – ₹30,000 | Capturing buyers already searching for you |
| Performance marketing | ₹30,000 – ₹75,000 | Multi-channel paid across Google and Meta |
| Social media marketing | ₹12,000 – ₹45,000 | Consumer and visual brands building an audience |
| Content marketing | ₹15,000 – ₹60,000 | Businesses whose buyers research before they buy |
| Email marketing | ₹12,000 – ₹60,000 | Retention, nurture and repeat revenue |
| Website design | ₹25,000 – ₹3,00,000+ | One-off build, priced by complexity |
| Branding | ₹10,000 – ₹2,50,000 | Identity, positioning and collateral |
Website design and branding are project fees, not monthly retainers. Everything else is a monthly engagement.
What moves your price up or down
- Competition in your category. Ranking a neighbourhood salon is not the same job as ranking a real estate developer against funded competitors.
- How many areas you target. One locality is far cheaper than ten across Delhi NCR.
- Content volume. More pages and articles each month means more cost — this is usually the largest single variable.
- Starting position. A site with technical problems or a thin backlink profile needs foundation work before growth work.
- Languages. Hindi or regional-language versions add roughly 30–50% to content cost, and often return it quickly because competition is thinner.
- How fast you need results. Paid channels buy speed; organic compounds. Most plans use both.
What a realistic budget looks like by stage
| Stage | Monthly budget | What that buys |
|---|---|---|
| Just starting | ₹12,000 – ₹25,000 | Local SEO, Google Business Profile, reviews, a few pages a month |
| Growing | ₹25,000 – ₹50,000 | SEO plus one paid channel, landing pages, monthly content, proper reporting |
| Established | ₹50,000 – ₹1,00,000 | Multi-channel paid, content at volume, link building, AI search visibility |
| Competitive category | ₹1,00,000+ | Full programme with creative production and senior strategy time |
If your budget is under ₹12,000 a month, our honest advice is to spend it on one thing properly — usually your Google Business Profile and reviews — rather than spreading it across channels where it will achieve nothing.
What is always included
- A free growth audit before you commit to anything
- A written scope each month — you always know what you are paying for
- Work done by the people you actually met, not handed to juniors
- Monthly reporting on qualified leads, not impressions and follower counts
- Full ownership of your website, content, ad accounts and analytics
- No lock-in beyond the agreed term, and no exit fees
What is never included in the monthly fee
- Ad spend. Always separate and paid directly to Google or Meta by you.
- Third-party subscriptions you choose to run, such as a CRM or email platform.
- Paid directory listings or sponsorships, if you decide to use them.
- Photography or video shoots beyond what is agreed in scope.
We would rather be dull about this upfront than surprise you on an invoice. Hidden charges are the most common complaint about agencies in India, and the easiest thing to avoid.
Frequently asked questions
Do you have fixed packages or custom pricing?
Both. The ranges on this page are real starting points, and most engagements land inside them. The exact figure depends on your competition, how many locations or services you need covered, and how much content is required. You get a fixed monthly number before you commit — never an open-ended hourly bill.
Is ad spend included in these prices?
No. Management fees and ad budget are always separate. If you are running Google or Meta ads, budget for the management fee from this page plus your actual ad spend on top. As a rough guide, most businesses spend at least as much on ads as they do on management.
Is there a minimum contract?
We usually ask for three months, because almost nothing in SEO or paid media produces a fair read in less than that. After that there is no lock-in. You own your website, content, ad accounts and analytics throughout.
Why do you not offer a cheaper package?
Below roughly ₹12,000 a month there is not enough time in the engagement to do work that changes anything. We would rather tell you that than take the money and deliver maintenance disguised as growth.
Do you guarantee first-page rankings?
No, and you should treat any agency that does with suspicion. Nobody controls Google. We commit to the work, report honestly on what it produces, and tell you when something is not working.
What is included in every engagement?
A free audit before you commit, a written monthly scope, work carried out by the people you met, monthly reporting on qualified leads rather than vanity metrics, and full ownership of everything we build for you.
Can I start with one service and add more later?
Yes, and most clients do. Starting with the single channel closest to revenue — usually search — and expanding once it is working costs less and tells you more than running everything at once on a thin budget.
