Frequently Asked Questions About Christian Synoradzki
Want to learn more about my work approach, experience, and terms? Here you'll find the most important answers.
How long have you been working in SEO?
For over 20 years. I started my career at one of Germany's leading SEO agencies, became a team lead there, and then went independent as an SEO freelancer. Since then, I've been working with businesses of all sizes — from local tradespeople to corporations like Henkel, Telekom, and Coca-Cola.
Which regions do you work in?
My office is in Luenen (NRW, Germany), but I work nationwide and internationally. Most projects run remotely via video calls, email, and screen sharing. For on-site meetings in the Ruhr area and beyond, I'm also available (EUR 150/h net plus travel surcharge).
How does working with you look like?
After a free initial consultation, I create a customized proposal with clear deliverables and transparent costs. For ongoing work, I bill monthly based on time spent (EUR 69/h net). You get regular updates, transparent reporting, and always have a direct line to me — no ticket system or waiting queue.
What does SEO cost with you?
For ongoing monthly collaboration, my hourly rate is EUR 69 net. Individual consulting sessions cost EUR 120 net. For on-site meetings, I charge EUR 150 net per hour plus a travel surcharge. There are no minimum terms and no hidden costs.
Do you also work with small businesses?
Yes, absolutely. Especially for small and medium-sized businesses, a freelancer is often a better choice than a large agency. You get personal attention without overhead and only pay for work actually performed. Many of my clients are local tradespeople, retailers, or service providers.
Which tools and technologies do you use?
I work with professional SEO tools such as SISTRIX, Ahrefs, Screaming Frog, Google Search Console, Google Analytics, and XOVI. For keyword research, technical audits, and competitive analysis, I use the appropriate tools depending on project requirements. Tool costs are included in my hourly rate.
How do you measure the success of your SEO efforts?
Every project has clear KPIs that we define together — for example, rankings for relevant keywords, organic traffic, visibility index, conversion rate, or generated inquiries. You receive regular reports with traceable numbers. If something isn't working, I say so openly and adjust the strategy.
Can I book you by the hour?
Yes. In addition to ongoing monthly collaboration, I offer individual sessions at EUR 120 net. This is ideal for one-time consultations, quick audits, specific SEO questions, or a second opinion on your current strategy. You can book directly via Calendly.
Is there a contract commitment or minimum term?
No. There is no contract commitment and no minimum term. You can end the collaboration at any time — without notice period. I'm convinced that good work speaks for itself and clients stay voluntarily.
Which industries do you not serve?
I deliberately focus on serious and sustainable business models. I do not take on projects from the areas of adult entertainment, drugs/cannabis, locksmith services, car buying/trading, and escort services.
