Turning down SEO work is expensive. Hiring a team to take it is riskier.
Agencies reach the same point repeatedly: clients ask for SEO, the agency does not have specialists, and the work either gets refused or gets delivered badly by generalists. Hiring solves it eventually but requires committing to salaries before the revenue is reliable, and a single senior SEO hire is expensive to get wrong. White label sits between those options — you sell and own the relationship, we deliver behind your brand.
Refusing revenue you already earned
Clients who trust you for design, development or paid media naturally ask for SEO. Sending them elsewhere risks the wider relationship and hands a competitor a foothold inside your account.
Hiring ahead of reliable revenue
A senior SEO specialist is a significant fixed cost committed before recurring revenue justifies it. If the pipeline softens, you carry the salary anyway — and a bad hire in a discipline you cannot assess is expensive.
Generalists delivering specialist work
Asking a designer or PPC manager to cover SEO produces poor outcomes and damages the client relationship you already have. It also consumes their time in a discipline where they cannot be efficient.
Reseller partners who go direct
The recurring fear with outsourcing: the partner approaches your client. It happens often enough that many agencies avoid the model entirely, which is a reasonable concern that has to be answered contractually.
You own the client. We own the delivery. Nobody knows we exist.
White label SEO means we operate as an invisible extension of your team. Every audit, report, strategy document and deliverable carries your branding. Your client sees your agency delivering SEO; we never appear anywhere in the chain.
You keep the client relationship, set your own pricing and margin, and control the commercial terms entirely. We provide the specialist capacity, the tooling and the process — and where you want it, we join client calls as a member of your team using your email domain.
- Fully branded deliverables — audits, reports, strategy documents and roadmaps produced in your template, with your logo, colours and tone of voice throughout.
- Complete delivery capability — technical SEO, on-page, content, local, link acquisition and reporting — the full discipline, not a narrow subset you have to supplement.
- A dedicated account manager — one named contact who knows your accounts, rather than a rotating ticket queue where context is lost between requests.
- Optional client-facing presence — we can join calls as your team member on your domain, or stay entirely invisible — your choice, per account.
- Contractual non-solicitation — a binding agreement that we never approach your clients directly, backed by process controls rather than only good intentions.
On margin: partners typically mark up between two and three times. You set retail pricing entirely — we quote you a wholesale rate per account and never see or influence what you charge your client.
How the partnership actually runs
Six operating principles that make a white label relationship work rather than becoming another management burden.
One account manager
A single named contact who knows your accounts, your clients’ context and your reporting preferences. No ticket queues, no re-explaining an account to a different person each month.
Your brand, applied properly
We build deliverables in your template with your logo, colours and voice. Set up once during onboarding, then applied consistently across every audit, report and roadmap without you checking each time.
Pre-sale support
We produce audits and proposals for your prospects before they sign, so you can pitch SEO credibly without committing resource to accounts that may not close.
Full-discipline delivery
Technical, on-page, content, local and link acquisition delivered by specialists in each. You are not buying one generalist’s time under a different name.
Confidentiality by process
Non-solicitation in the contract, plus operational controls: we do not hold direct client contact details unless you provide them, and all communication routes through you by default.
Flexible capacity
Scale accounts up or down monthly as your pipeline moves. No minimum account commitments, which is the entire point of not hiring.
Built to be invisible and easy to work with
We have run white label partnerships long enough to know what breaks them: slow responses, inconsistent branding, and any hint of a partner going around the agency.
Contractual non-solicitation
Binding non-solicitation, plus operational controls so we do not even hold client contact details unless you choose to share them. The protection is structural, not just a promise.
Genuinely white label
No watermarks, no tool branding, no footer credits. Reports come from your template. Clients have no way of knowing we were involved, which is the entire product.
Fast partner response
Under 24 hours on partner queries, because you frequently need answers while a client is on the phone. Slow partner response is what makes agencies abandon this model.
Pre-sale audits included
We produce pitch-ready audits for prospects before they sign, so you can win the work without gambling resource on it. Most partners find this the highest-value part of the arrangement.
Transparent wholesale pricing
Published per-account wholesale rates so you can price and forecast margin confidently. No opaque quotes that vary by account and make pricing impossible.
We can join your calls
Where you want technical depth in front of a client, we join as your team member on your email domain — or stay entirely invisible. Your call, account by account.
Reports your clients understand, in your branding
Reporting is what your client actually sees each month, so it carries your brand and leads with outcomes rather than SEO jargon.
Branded monthly reports
Your template, your logo, your voice — delivered on your schedule, ready to send or present without editing.
Commercial outcomes first
Enquiries, revenue and cost per lead lead the report, with rankings and technical detail supporting rather than dominating.
Work completed log
An itemised record of delivery each month, so you can answer client questions about what was done without contacting us.
Progress against roadmap
Where each account sits against its agreed plan, so you always know the status before a client asks.
Partner dashboard
A single view across all your accounts — status, deliverables due and results — so managing ten accounts does not take ten conversations.
Four stages from first call to first report
Onboarding is deliberately quick. Most partners have their first account live within a week.
Partner onboarding
We set up your branding templates, agree wholesale pricing, sign the partnership and non-solicitation agreement, and assign your account manager. Typically completed within a few days.
Pre-sale support
For each prospect, we produce a branded audit and proposal you can pitch. You win the work before any delivery resource is committed, which removes the risk from selling SEO you cannot yet deliver.
Delivery
Once the client signs, we execute the roadmap — technical, on-page, content, local and links as scoped. All communication routes through you unless you ask us to join calls as your team.
Report & grow
Branded monthly reports delivered on your schedule, plus a partner dashboard across all accounts. As your pipeline grows we scale capacity with it, with no minimum commitments.
