Why the range is so wide.
This is our reading of it, not a published rule.
- Per article or per month. A price per article and a price per month are different things. Ask how many pieces the month contains.
- Length and research. A short post from what the writer already knows costs less than a long one built on research and checked sources.
- Who writes it. A writer who knows your industry costs more than one who does not. One guide warns that very low prices buy generic text that does not move traffic.
- Language. English, Hindi and regional-language content is separate writing, not one set translated.
- What comes after. Publishing, images and sharing the piece are sometimes in the price and sometimes not.
What ours includes.
- From ₹20,000 a month for 8 articles, highly optimised for visibility, plus GST where it applies.
- A fixed monthly fee agreed on a free call, month to month, plus GST where it applies.
- A content plan: the questions your customers ask, and which to answer first.
- Articles, emails and page copy drafted in your voice, with every claim checked against a source before you see the draft.
- Publishing to your site once you approve each piece.
- A monthly report of what was published and what it brought.

Questions.
How much does content marketing cost in India?
It runs from a few thousand rupees an article to a lakh or more a month. Ours starts at ₹20,000 a month for 8 articles, highly optimised for visibility plus GST where it applies, a fixed fee agreed on your free call.
How many articles do I get for the price?
It depends on length and research, so the number is agreed on the free call before the fee is fixed. Be careful with any price quoted without a number of pieces.
Is cheap content worth it?
Rarely for search. One 2026 guide says articles priced at ₹500 to ₹2,000 are generic text that ranks nowhere. Check what research and fact-checking a price includes.
Is content marketing worth it for a small business?
It is when each piece answers a question your customers really ask, because those are the pieces search and AI answers quote. It is not when it is general writing about your industry.
Who owns the content?
You do. Everything we write is yours, published on your site, and stays yours if you stop.
