SEO Pricing in Malaysia (2026): What Agencies Charge and What You Get

Published SEO packages in Malaysia, from RM650 to RM10,000 a month, what each level includes, and what to ask for in a quotation.

Nik Aiman3 min read

Most SEO agencies in Malaysia charge between RM800 and RM5,000 a month, usually on a 6 or 12 month contract. Entry packages cover a small number of keywords, a few pages and about two articles a month. Larger packages add more pages, more articles and links from other websites. Prices are usually quoted before 8% SST.

The figures below come from the packages Malaysian agencies publish on their own websites, checked on 5 November 2026. Use them to judge a quotation, not as a fixed price list.

What changes the price of an SEO package

  • How many keywords the agency works on. Packages run from about 10 keywords to 70 or more.
  • How many pages of your website it changes, from about 5 to 20.
  • How many articles it writes each month, from about 2 to 8.
  • Whether it places articles on other websites to earn links. This is often what separates the larger packages.
  • Whether your Google Business Profile is included. Some packages leave it out, others only set it up.
  • How competitive your searches are. A clinic in one area costs less to rank than a national online shop.

Contracts, deposits and tax

Twelve months is the most common contract length, and some agencies offer six months for a smaller first commitment. Some ask for 25% to 50% of the contract up front. Packages are usually priced before 8% SST, so check whether the figure on your quotation includes it.

Contract length and deposits from Locus-T’s price guide (locus-t.com.my/seo-price-and-package-malaysia-2026) and Zenweb’s six-month minimum (zenweb.my/services/seo/pricing). SST from Maximus’s package page (maximus.com.my/google-seo-package.php).

What to ask for in an SEO quotation

  • Which searches will you work on, and how many people search for each one every month?
  • How many articles will you write each month, and in which languages?
  • Which pages of my website will you change?
  • How will you show me where I rank, and how often?
  • Is my Google Business Profile included?
  • How long is the contract, how much is paid up front, and what happens if I stop?
  • Does the price include 8% SST?
