Buyer's guide
If you are searching for an SEO company in Saudi Arabia, most proposals you receive will look identical: a keyword list, monthly articles and a promise of first place. The difference between a provider who moves your rankings and one who bills you for reports is whether the same team can also fix the site. RASED is a Riyadh-based software and cybersecurity company, so SEO recommendations are implemented by the engineers who can touch the code, the speed, the structured data and the server — carrying the RASED Solutions team's delivery experience and tracking AI-search visibility with Sadara. This page gives you the checklist, the model comparison and the real prices, so you can judge us the same way you judge everyone else.
01
Ask who applies the fixes. Many agencies send a spreadsheet to your developer and wait. A provider with in-house engineers ships the change in the same month it was found.
02
Saudi users search in dialect-influenced Arabic with different question patterns from English. Ask to read two Arabic pages the provider wrote before you sign.
03
Ask for a sample audit showing indexing, Core Web Vitals, crawl issues, structured data and internal linking — with the exact pages affected.
04
A growing share of research now happens inside AI assistants. Ask how the provider structures entities, authorship and citable evidence, and how they measure it.
05
Rankings alone prove little. A serious report shows Search Console impressions and clicks, the pages that gained, and how many enquiries arrived.
06
Your domain, hosting, analytics, Search Console and published content must stay in your company's name and accounts — even if you change provider.
07
A provider who refuses to state any starting price before a discovery call is protecting negotiation room, not your project.
08
Downtime, malware and broken updates erase months of SEO work. Ask who is responsible for uptime, patching and recovery while the campaign runs.
This is a service-model comparison, not a claim about every company. Ask each shortlisted provider to confirm these points in writing.
| What to compare | Typical provider model | RASED model |
|---|---|---|
| Who applies the technical fixes | A recommendation document handed to your developer | RASED engineers implement directly — we are a software company first |

| Site speed and Core Web Vitals | Flagged in a report, fixed whenever your developer is free | Part of the retainer, executed by the same team |
| Security and uptime during the campaign | Outside scope — a separate vendor's problem | Cybersecurity is our core business, so protection and monitoring can sit in one agreement |

| Pricing transparency | Quoted only after a discovery call | Starting prices published on this page and on our SEO service page |
| Guarantees | "First page guaranteed" | We guarantee the agreed work and honest reporting — no one can guarantee Google's ranking |

Yes. RASED is a Riyadh-based software and cybersecurity company, and SEO is one of our core services — delivered by our own engineers, not outsourced. We run technical SEO, Arabic and English content, local SEO and AI-search (GEO) visibility for Saudi businesses, with published starting prices: audit from 1,900 SAR and monthly plans from 1,900 SAR.
There is no single answer for every business, and any company claiming otherwise is selling. The right question is which provider can audit, implement, write Arabic properly and report honestly for your case. Apply the checklist on this page to us and to every shortlisted provider, and choose on written answers.
Published Saudi agency guides commonly quote 2,500–4,000 SAR per month for small local sites, 4,000–10,000 for growing companies and 10,000–25,000+ for competitive markets. At RASED the audit starts from 1,900 SAR, monthly plans from 1,900 SAR, stores from 4,900 SAR and SEO + GEO Authority from 8,500 SAR, excluding 15% VAT.
Because implementation is in-house. We are not paying an outside development shop to apply our own recommendations, and we are building our client base in Saudi Arabia. The work is not reduced — the overhead is.
Technical improvements can register within weeks, and new pages often start collecting impressions in the first month or two. Meaningful ranking and enquiry growth usually needs three to six months or more, depending on your site's history and competition. The audit sets realistic milestones for your case.
Both, as two connected strategies with their own queries and pages. Arabic is written natively for Saudi search intent rather than translated.
GEO is optimising how clearly AI search systems can understand, attribute and cite your information. Buyers increasingly research inside AI assistants, so we structure the entity, authorship and evidence that those systems rely on, then track visibility with Sadara.
Three months on monthly plans. The first months are repair and foundation work, and no one can judge results fairly in less than that. After three months the plan continues month by month.
Yes. We start with an audit that also checks for risky practices left behind — bought links, thin duplicated content, broken migrations or indexing blocks — and the cleanup plan is priced openly before any work starts.
