This 11-year-old B2B SEO agency generates $13,134/mo profit on $28,092/mo revenue (47% margins) at a 2.67x multiple — reasonable for an agency with this operating history. Having served 3,000+ clients and maintaining ~10 on recurring subscriptions with ~50% repeat rates demonstrates real customer stickiness. The sub-1-hour/day owner involvement is notable. However, top-3 clients representing 40% of revenue is a material concentration risk that must be diligenced heavily.
The service delivery infrastructure for an SEO/content outreach agency can be stood up cheaply with AI tooling and contractor networks. The primary assets being acquired are the publisher relationships, client relationships, and the Upwork/marketplace presence — but with 40% revenue concentration in 3 clients and only 30 active accounts, the traction durability is fragile. The 11-year history is valuable but doesn't guarantee post-acquisition retention. At $420K with these concentration risks and thin active client base, building a comparable operation with $20K-$30K in tools and initial contractor costs is a more risk-adjusted path.
Cash estimate includes the AI tools, APIs and infrastructure needed for a solo founder to recreate the software. Build time is informational and lightly weighted. The verdict is driven mainly by customers, users, verified earnings, retention, distribution, brand, data and operating history.

The business specializes in helping companies and marketing agencies improve their online visibility through authority-building search optimization and content outreach strategies. Its service offering emphasizes high-quality publisher relationships, white-label fulfillment, and scalable campaign execution, making it well positioned to serve both agencies and enterprise clients.

Owner works ~5 hours/week. Reason for sale: The Seller would like to explore other opportunities.
