For big monthly deals, make everything clear upfront deliverables, timelines, payment terms, and exit clauses. Keep it simple and get both sides aligned before signing anything.

Should there be refund in exit clause?

Since you’re investing a significant monthly budget, it’s important to clearly define the scope of work in your contract, including on-page, off-page, and technical SEO along with specific deliverables and realistic timelines; you should also include KPIs or performance benchmarks without expecting guaranteed rankings, and set a proper reporting structure (weekly or monthly updates) to track progress; additionally, make sure payment terms, termination clauses, and confidentiality are clearly outlined, ensure the provider follows strictly white-hat SEO practices to avoid any risk or penalties, and most importantly, include a clause that you retain full ownership of all content, backlinks, and accounts created during the project.
