How to use (and not misuse) these numbers
Figures were compiled on 11 October 2026 and publishers revise studies over time — verify live values at the source before quoting. Treat stats as direction for where your next hour of work goes (speed, proof, reviews), never as promised outcomes. Our pricing benchmarks apply the same honesty to what agencies charge, and the free SEO audit tool turns these priorities into checks on your own site.
