PROJECT SPRINTS
Project Sprints for bigger SEO, WordPress, and technical work.
Some problems have one clear outcome but too many connected moving pieces to pretend they fit inside a standard workstream.
A migration may require URL mapping, redirects, staging QA, crawl validation, analytics, and post-launch monitoring. A market expansion may need research, architecture, keyword mapping, internal linking, and dozens of coordinated pages.
Ghostworx Project Sprints give agencies a defined scope, price, and outcome for larger initiatives, delivered behind your brand.
Starting at $2,500. Scoped and quoted before work begins.
Bigger scope. Same clear finish line.
WHEN THE WORK GETS BIGGER
One outcome. More moving pieces.
A Project Sprint usually starts when the desired outcome is clear, but accomplishing it requires several connected phases, systems, or disciplines.
THE BOUNDARY
Bigger than a workstream. Still clearly scoped.
The difference is not how intimidating the problem sounds. It is how many connected pieces are required to reach the outcome.
HOW IT WORKS
Scope the outcome. Build the pieces. Ship the result.
Bring the Initiative
Tell us what needs to happen, what exists today, and what constraints matter.
We Scope the Sprint
We investigate enough to define the outcome, phases, dependencies, required access, deliverables, timeline, and price.
We Execute
Research, strategy, technical work, implementation, QA, documentation, or whatever combination the initiative requires.
We Validate & Hand It Back
We verify what changed, document the result, and give your team whatever it needs to confidently own the work going forward.
If the project changes materially after scoping, we discuss the change before the work changes.
PROJECT SPRINT EXAMPLE
One expansion. Forty-plus pages. One architecture.
A multi-location service business wanted to expand organic coverage across several physical locations, services, and surrounding markets.
Building pages one at a time would have created overlapping intent, inconsistent URLs, weak internal linking, and no clear order of operations.
The Sprint turned the expansion into one coordinated system.

WHICH MODEL FITS
Same bench. Different size of problem.
Not sure which category your problem belongs in? Good. Send us the problem and we’ll tell you.
WHITE-LABEL BY DESIGN
A bigger project does not mean another visible vendor.
Project Sprints still operate behind your agency by default.
More moving pieces. Same invisible delivery model.
Not an open-ended consulting project.
Project Sprints are designed around a defined result, not around keeping a consultant busy until a budget runs out.
The project can be large. The boundaries still need to be clear.

FAQ
Fair questions.
What agencies ask before scoping a larger initiative.
What is an SEO sprint?
An SEO sprint is a focused, defined SEO initiative built around a specific outcome rather than an ongoing open-ended retainer. Ghostworx uses the broader term Project Sprint because larger agency initiatives may also involve WordPress, performance, local search, technical implementation, or multiple disciplines at once.
What makes a Project Sprint different from a workstream?
A workstream is one contained problem or outcome. A Project Sprint handles a larger initiative with several connected components required to reach one larger outcome.
How much does a Project Sprint cost?
Project Sprints start at $2,500. The actual price is quoted after scoping and depends on complexity, implementation requirements, dependencies, and project size.
How long does a Project Sprint take?
It depends on the initiative. The expected timeline is defined during scoping so you know the schedule before work begins.
Can a Project Sprint include implementation?
Yes. Where implementation is appropriate and included in scope, Ghostworx can perform the work directly. Where another developer or team needs to make a change, we provide specific instructions and validate the result where included.
Can Project Sprints cross multiple Ghostworx capabilities?
Yes. That is often exactly why the initiative belongs in a Sprint. A migration touches Technical SEO, WordPress, and performance. A market expansion touches Local SEO, strategy, and architecture. The Sprint keeps connected work moving as one initiative.
Can we use Agency Partner workstreams instead?
Sometimes. If the work can be meaningfully divided into independent workstreams, that may make sense. If the pieces are tightly connected and need to move as one initiative, a Project Sprint is usually cleaner.
Have one project that refuses to fit in a box?
Migration, market expansion, strategy overhaul, custom WordPress build, performance initiative, or something even stranger? Send it over. We’ll figure out the right scope before the work starts.
Hard problems. Quietly handled.
