How do I Determine how much to invest in content

I have a few websites I'm starting up soon and I understand how important good content is. One site is a construction business and the other is a business listing directory in a niche. Looking at the content writing companies, it seems like it'd cost around $60 per article on the niche topics such as how to choose the right contractor or diy stuff etc. I know that 1 article isn't enough, so ill need dozens of articles on each site, and I read that it can take up to 4 to 6 months to get the benefits from the content and get better rankings.

At that rate, if I paid for 12 articles of content per site per month at $60 per article and it takes 6 months to get good rankings, it would cost nearly $10k and I see that decent new sites are generating $500 a month, it would take 20 months to recoup the content investment.

What kind of formula can I use to guide on how much to pay for content, what strategies do you all use for investing in content for new websites?

Thanks

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

GMB territory inching with service company

Seeking advice on extending our service area, while our main GMB profile states SD County, we only rank in our neighborhood but we have the team to service much more jobs. The boss wants us to get addresses in these hot territories within the county and use call rail numbers to validate the GMB profile. Question: Does this still work? Will it catch up with us? OR is there a better way to rank in a territory for a service. We are 4.9 stars with 120+ reviews submitted by /u/SoCal619TradesPro [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/9RWmh6i
