Spanish SEO services and Spanish SEO agency for U.S. businesses, from $500/mo (reference price)

Spanish SEO is search optimization done with Spanish as the source language: keyword research run in Spanish, pages written against Spanish queries, and the technical setup — separate URLs per language with hreflang declared both ways — that lets Google serve the Spanish page to a Spanish-speaking searcher. It is not translating an English site, which is the most common way the work is done badly.

At 3R Core, SEO costs $500 USD per month and includes the initial audit, planning, on-page optimization, scaling and a monthly report, with no mandatory contract. If the engagement also requires building Spanish pages from scratch, websites start at $850 and corporate sites at $1,200 (range $1,200–$2,400 depending on scope). Figures shown are for reference only.

In most U.S. local and service categories, yes — not because the technique differs but because far fewer competitors have built Spanish pages, so there is less to outrank. The work itself is the same discipline. The advantage is competitive, not technical, and it shrinks as more businesses in a category start publishing in Spanish.

For a U.S. business adding Spanish, a subfolder such as example.com/es/ is the right default. It inherits the authority the domain has already earned, which a subdomain or separate domain would have to build from nothing, and it leaves one property to maintain. What matters more than the choice is that each language has its own URL and that hreflang declares both directions.

Translation plugins solve the wrong problem. They produce a Spanish version of an English page, which means the page still targets whatever the English page targeted, and the headings still answer the English question. They also tend to generate neutral machine Spanish that a U.S. Hispanic reader recognizes immediately, which costs trust at the moment of decision. They are a stopgap, not an SEO strategy.

Hreflang is the tag that tells Google which language version of a page to show to which searcher. Each language version needs its own URL, and each must point at the other — the declaration has to be reciprocal. When it is missing or one-sided, Google picks on its own and frequently serves the English page to a Spanish-speaking user, which wastes the Spanish page entirely. It is the first thing we check in any bilingual audit.

Low-competition local and long-tail Spanish queries typically start moving within a few months of consistent work. Competitive commercial terms take considerably longer, and anyone quoting a guaranteed date is quoting a number they do not control. What we commit to is a monthly report showing which queries moved and which did not.

In the United States, 3R Core sells three services: websites, SEO and online stores. Google Ads management is not what we lead with for U.S. clients, and we would rather say so than sell a service we are not focused on. If paid search in Spanish is your priority, we will tell you honestly whether we are the right fit on the first call.

A Spanish SEO agency runs the same monthly cycle as an English SEO team, with Spanish as the working language: a technical audit, keyword and intent research in Spanish, on-page work, new Spanish pages, internal links, the Google Business Profile in Spanish and a report with Spanish traffic separated from English. At 3R Core that engagement starts from $500 per month with no mandatory contract. Figures shown are for reference only.

If someone on your team can research keywords in Spanish, write Spanish pages and fix hreflang, our free guide on how to do Spanish SEO for a U.S. business covers the steps. If nobody has the time or the Spanish, that is what the service is for: our team does the research, writes the pages and reports every month.

No. $500 per month is our published reference price for SEO. The final figure depends on the size of the site and on how many Spanish pages have to be written, and we confirm it in a written proposal after a first call. Building whole Spanish sections from scratch is quoted as website work, with websites from $850. Figures shown are for reference only.
