David, you raise an excellent point. I think I said something similar in my post, but you’re entirely right that conversion rate is crucial in these calculations. If you download my spreadsheet from my rss feed, you’ll see that I use multiple tables for the sake of comparing ROI at different conversion rates.

Yes this a a good post. Read some of your stuff before on moz. Rand did one somewhere explaining how you can do a ppc campaign and then calulate estimated results from that. Gonna have to go and dig out the figures…

Gabriel,

This is an excellent post, but there are also some other areas to explore – depending on what the revenue model is for the company you’re working with.

In many cases, the client may already be ranking ok for some terms – just not converting, due to poor usability of the site, or a complicated checkout/booking systems, etc…

By recognizing issues such as these early on, asking what their current close or check out completion rate is during those initial meetings, you can often estimate a conservative % increase based on what you think your SEO efforts can do (tying in your keyword data as well).

Depending on the client, the estimated ROI can be 2, 5, 10, 20 x whatever the SEO costs are – which is great to know before hand, so that you don’t undercharge.
