SPP.co Alternative

SPP.co Alternative for SEO Agencies

SPP.co lets you sell SEO packages — "10 Blog Posts," "Technical Audit," "Link Building Starter" — through an order portal. But most SEO agencies operate on monthly retainers with recurring deliverables, not one-off package orders. SPP has no time tracking to monitor retainer hours, no recurring task automation for monthly deliverable cycles, and no team management for distributing work across SEO specialists. Its order-based model fundamentally misaligns with how retainer-driven SEO agencies work. AgencyPro provides the retainer management, recurring workflows, and team operations SEO agencies need to scale.

If you're a SEO agency looking for an alternative to SPP.co, you're not alone. Many SEO teams switch when they outgrow SPP's capabilities — particularly around designed only for productized services, not custom projects. AgencyPro is purpose-built for agencies like yours, combining project management, client portals, and billing into one platform.

Why SEO Agencies Struggle with SPP.co

SPP's fixed-price order model doesn't fit monthly SEO retainers — there's no way to track hours against a retainer allocation or automate monthly billing reconciliation

No recurring task automation means SEO agencies cannot auto-generate monthly deliverable checklists for technical audits, content production, link building, and reporting

SPP has no time tracking whatsoever, making it impossible to know how many hours your team actually spends per SEO client or whether retainers are profitable

Work distribution across SEO specialists is invisible because SPP has no team management — you can't see who's handling which client deliverables or who has capacity

Why SEO Agencies Switch to AgencyPro

Retainer-First Operations

SEO agencies live on monthly retainers, not one-off orders. AgencyPro is built around retainer management — automated hour tracking, utilization dashboards, overservice alerts, and monthly invoicing tied to actual work delivered. SPP.co's entire model is built around fixed-price orders, which means every retainer billing cycle requires manual workarounds and provides zero utilization visibility.

Recurring SEO Workflow Automation

Every month brings the same cycle: technical audits, content production, link outreach, and reporting. AgencyPro auto-generates recurring task sets for each client on a configurable cadence, pre-assigned to the right team members with appropriate deadlines. SPP treats each "order" as a discrete event — it has no concept of ongoing, repeating work cycles.

SEO Team Workload Management

When you have SEO specialists, content writers, link builders, and account managers, you need to see how work is distributed across the team. AgencyPro shows real-time team utilization, helps you balance workloads, and supports capacity planning for new business. SPP tracks orders, not people — it has no awareness of your internal team at all.

Multi-Stream Campaign Structure

A single SEO retainer involves concurrent workstreams: technical optimization, on-page content, link acquisition, and monthly reporting. AgencyPro structures these as parallel workstreams within a client project. SPP would require separate "orders" for each stream, fragmenting the work and making holistic campaign management impossible.

Frequently Asked Questions

We sell some productized SEO packages alongside retainers — can AgencyPro handle both?

Yes. AgencyPro supports fixed-price projects for one-off audits or packages alongside ongoing retainer management for monthly clients. You get the flexibility to serve both engagement types in one system, rather than SPP which locks you into the productized model for everything.

How does retainer tracking work compared to SPP's order system?

In SPP, a retainer is essentially a recurring order with a fixed price and no hour tracking. In AgencyPro, retainers have allocated hours, real-time utilization tracking, overservice alerts, automated invoicing tied to actual work, and monthly reports showing deliverables completed versus scope — giving both you and your clients full visibility into retainer value.

We manage 30+ SEO clients — can AgencyPro handle that volume?

AgencyPro is built for agencies managing large client portfolios. Cross-client dashboards show retainer health, deliverable completion rates, and team allocation across all accounts simultaneously. You get the operational overview that's impossible in SPP at any scale because SPP only shows a list of orders, not the health of ongoing client relationships.

Does AgencyPro integrate with SEO tools like Ahrefs or SEMrush?

AgencyPro focuses on agency operations — project management, billing, team coordination, and client communication. It complements your existing SEO toolset by managing the operational work around those tools rather than trying to replicate their functionality.
