Information on this site
Everything published here is general information about SEO and our services. It isn’t advice tailored to your business until we’ve looked at your site, which is what the free audit is for.
Results and data
The results we publish are figures from our own reporting and each client’s Google Search Console, Google Analytics and Maps checks, for named South Australian businesses, with the window or date shown with each number. Rankings change with the day, the device and where you search from, every business is different, and the past performance of other sites doesn’t guarantee the outcome for yours. No ethical SEO provider can guarantee a ranking, and we don’t.
Free AI visibility check
The free AI visibility check asks one AI system (Anthropic’s Claude, using its web search) three questions a customer might ask about the service and town you enter. The questions don’t name the business. It then shows you what the AI said. That’s one AI’s answer at one moment. Ask again later, or ask a different AI, and the answer may change. The check is general information. It isn’t a ranking, a measure of your Google performance or advice for your business. For a person to look at your site properly, use the free audit.
If you include a website, the check also reads that site’s public /llms.txt file. Your inputs and the result are saved for 12 months so the result link keeps working, and anyone with the link can open it. Please don’t enter personal or confidential information.
Fair use: up to three checks per day from the same IP address. There is also an overall daily limit across the site, so the check may be unavailable at times. Running an identical check within 24 hours shows the saved result instead of a new one, even if someone else ran the first check. If you ask for the result by email, we send no more than two result emails per address per day. Automated or bulk use isn’t allowed.
Engagements
SEO services are engaged month to month under the plan described at the time of engagement. No lock-in contracts, just 30 days’ notice by email to cancel: the scope, price and inclusions you agree to at the start are the ones that apply. Work outside your plan is quoted before we start it.
Prices and GST
Prices are the full amount. We aren’t registered for GST, so no GST is added. The monthly price of your plan is what you pay; the Local plan includes no Google Ads; on the Growth and Serious plans, the Google Ads budget described on the pricing page (20% of the fee on Growth, 35% on Serious) comes out of that price, not on top of it. If you’d rather not run ads, you can swap that share for other work of the same value instead, at the same price. Larger or separate Google Ads campaigns are run through JB Digital Barossa on its Google Ads plans (from $599 a month, including about $300 of ad spend). Those plans are paid monthly in advance, any included ad spend not used in a month rolls into the next month, and extra ad budget above the included amount is charged at cost, including the GST Google charges. If you leave, you keep the Google Ads account and its history. Larger Meta (Facebook and Instagram) campaigns are also run through JB Digital Barossa, with the ad spend paid by you to Meta directly.
Each client gets its own separate Google Ads account, set up and managed by us, and you can ask for access to it at any time. Ad platforms set their own rules and prices, and nobody can guarantee results from advertising: we report what the ads did, honestly, in your monthly report.
Billing
We bill monthly in arrears. Each invoice is issued on your billing date and covers the month just ended (for example, 29 September to 29 October). Invoices are payable within 14 days of the invoice date, by card online through Stripe (using the payment link on the invoice or in your client portal) or by bank transfer to the account shown on the invoice. No GST is added. Invoices and receipts are emailed to you as PDFs and kept in your client portal.
Cancelling
Month to month. Cancel any time with 30 days’ notice by email to admin@jbdigitalbarossa.com.au. Because we bill in arrears, your service continues through the 30-day notice period, and your final invoice covers your service up to the end of that period. Your Google Business Profile, Search Console, Analytics and website content stay yours.
Price changes
We may change a plan’s price or inclusions. We’ll email you at least 30 days before. A new price only applies to service from the date in that notice; anything before it is billed at your old price. If you’d rather not continue, you can change plans or cancel, and if you cancel within that notice period your whole notice period is billed at your old price.
Refunds
Because we bill in arrears, you only ever pay for months of service you’ve had. We don’t give refunds just because you change your mind, but that doesn’t limit your rights under the Australian Consumer Law: if our work fails a consumer guarantee, you’re entitled to a remedy (see below).
Your accounts and our work
Your Google Business Profile, Search Console, Analytics, Google Ads account access, domain and website content stay yours; we only ask for the access we need. Content we write for you (pages, posts, Business Profile posts) is yours to keep once the month it was made in is paid for, even if you leave. Our own tools, templates and know-how stay ours. We show client work, photos, ads and results from websites we build and look after. If you are a client and want anything taken down, email admin@jbdigitalbarossa.com.au and we will remove it.
Pausing or ending a plan
If an invoice stays unpaid or we can’t get the access we need, we’ll email you, explain the problem and give you at least 14 days to fix it before we pause or end your plan. We never delete content we’ve published on your website or Business Profile because a plan ends.
Liability
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any guarantee, right or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law, or any other right that the law says can’t be excluded.
Where the law allows it, if our services are not of a kind ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic or household use, our liability for failing to meet a consumer guarantee is limited to supplying the services again or paying the cost of having them supplied again (section 64A of the Australian Consumer Law).
To the extent the law allows, neither of us is liable to the other for indirect or consequential loss, such as lost profits or revenue, including loss caused by changes in search rankings or by outages of third-party platforms.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. If a change affects your plan, we’ll email you at least 30 days before it takes effect, and you can cancel before then with no extra charge. A change never alters the price or work already agreed for a month in progress. The latest version is always on this page, with its date at the top.
Australian Consumer Law
Our services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. For major failures with the service, you are entitled: to cancel your service contract with us; and to a refund for the unused portion, or to compensation for its reduced value. You are also entitled to be compensated for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. If the failure does not amount to a major failure you are entitled to have problems with the service rectified in a reasonable time and, if this is not done, to cancel your contract and obtain a refund for the unused portion of the contract.
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee, right or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law. If something isn’t right, tell us first and we’ll work through it with you; you can also contact Consumer and Business Services SA or the ACCC about your rights.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of South Australia, and disputes are subject to the courts of South Australia. If part of these terms can’t be enforced, the rest still applies. Our website-build terms are at jbdigitalbarossa.com.au/terms.
