SEO vs Paid Ads — The 3-Year Cost Analysis
Paid ads generate leads on Day 1. SEO generates leads that compound in value every month. Here is what that difference actually costs — and earns — over 36 months.
| Metric | Google Ads (Paid) | SEO — LeadArchitecture™ |
|---|---|---|
| Cost per lead | $80–$400 per lead | $20–$60 per lead |
| Speed to first lead | Immediate (Day 1) | 60–90 days |
| Lead quality | Cold — ad-interrupted | Warm — buyer-intent driven |
| When you stop paying | Zero leads immediately | Content stays ranked — leads continue |
| Year 1 cost (100 leads/mo) | $96,000–$480,000 | $18,000–$78,000 |
| Year 2 for same volume | Same or higher | Same investment, higher volume |
| Year 3 cost per lead | $80–$400 (unchanged) | $8–$20 (compounded) |
Common Questions
The calculator uses actual lead volumes, close rates, and client values from our personal injury, solar, and local service client engagements. It is an educational projection — not a guarantee. Your results depend on market competition, domain authority, close rate, and content consistency. The ranges are deliberately realistic — not inflated to win business.
Month 1 organic lead volume from a new SEO engagement is always low — pages take time to rank and the compounding effect of a RankCluster™ system is not felt until Month 3–4. Month 6 is the realistic steady-state volume for a properly executed LeadArchitecture™ system. We use this to give you an honest picture — not an inflated day-one projection.
