Your compact website still faces the same challenges: technical SEO issues, performance bottlenecks, and missed optimization opportunities. Yet most tools and agencies price as if you're running a massive platform. There’s rarely an option that adjusts cost based on your site’s actual size. At ilumi, we’re changing that. Our audits are priced by page count, giving compact websites access to expert insights without the inflated fees.

Simplicity and Accessibility Are Core to ilumi

We built ilumi on the belief that great SEO insights shouldn’t require a steep learning curve or a big budget. That’s why simplicity and accessibility are at the heart of everything we do. For Our audits are designed to be visual, complication-free, and focused on what actually moves the needle. So you can take action confidently, even without a background in SEO.

Fighting Subscription Fatigue

In a world overflowing with monthly fees, upsells, and endless logins, we’re deliberately the opposite. At ilumi, there are no subscriptions, no marketing emails after your audit, and no accounts to manage.

You don’t have to 'stay on the platform' to get value: you pay once, get your audit, and that’s it.

We’ve blended the speed and automation of a tool with the insight and personalization of an agency so you get real results without the long-term baggage.

Why Our Pricing Model Works

Most SEO tools and agencies apply a blanket strategy, charging per seat, per domain, or bloated monthly subscriptions, regardless of your site’s size. But why should a 40-page portfolio site pay the same as a 10,000-page ecommerce platform?

ilumi flips that model. Our pricing is based on page volume: the actual size of your site. No subscriptions. Zero upsells. Just a one-time payment that scales with your needs.

Solution Perfect for Small and Compact Websites

Smaller websites may have fewer pages, but they still face big issues: from indexing problems to performance blockers. The difference? They’re faster to crawl and easier for our experts to analyze thoroughly.

When we inspect your site, we simulate how a search engine crawls your pages. That process takes more resources for larger sites, more URLs to load, more code to process, more data to interpret. For compact websites, the crawl is quicker, and our team can wrap their heads around the findings faster and deliver clearer insights.

That’s why our pricing reflects the size of your site - not your company size, budget, or subscription plan. You pay for what’s actually being audited, nothing more.

The Value Behind a Small-Site Audit

  • Small sites are more sensitive to SEO and website issues.
  • One fix has a bigger impact on your visibility than in the case of bigger sites.
  • You can take action faster without team bottlenecks.

Skip the Bloat. Keep the Clarity.

We want you to save time and stay efficient. Technical website audits are in high demand and for good reason but they’re often locked behind paywalls, subscriptions, or agency retainers. We're here to change that.

While you focus on creating amazing content and growing your site, we look behind the scenes to catch what might be quietly sabotaging your efforts from broken links and slow-loading images to SEO blockers hidden in your code.

No bloated dashboards. No confusing scores. Just clear, actionable insights that show you what needs fixing and why.

And because we know not everyone speaks fluent SEO, our experts leave comments throughout the audit explaining tricky terms, flagging the most urgent issues, and guiding you step-by-step toward better performance.

You won’t be left guessing. You’ll know what matters, what’s optional, and what to tackle first.

Not Sure Which Audit You Need?

To choose the right audit, start by checking how many unique pages your site has. Here’s how to find that number in your CMS:

  • WordPress: Go to your dashboard and check the number of published Pages and Posts. If you're using custom post types (like Portfolios or Case Studies), include those too. Plugins like Yoast SEO or free sitemap generators can give you a more complete count.
  • Shopify: In your admin panel, go to Online Store → Pages, and also count your Products and Blog Posts if you want them included in the audit. Each product or blog post counts as one page.
  • Wix: Open the Site Structure in the Editor to view all your pages. Don’t forget to include dynamic pages generated from collections, like individual service or product detail pages.
  • Squarespace: Go to the Pages panel and count both navigation and not-linked pages. Blog entries and product pages count too you’ll find totals in the “Commerce” or “Blog” sections.
  • Other platforms: Use a free sitemap generator (like xml-sitemaps.com) to crawl your site and get a quick page count.

Don’t worry if your site is slightly over the limit, we won’t penalise you. If we find your site is bigger than expected, we’ll simply let you know and walk you through the next steps.
