The average SEO strategist’s salary according to Glassdoor is $62,732 in Canada. Naturally, this depends on their skill set and the organization they are going to be working for. From our experience, most senior strategists (7+ years of SEO) land in the mark of $85,000 plus commissions for extended and new business, which puts them well above the six-figure mark. Getting there, however, takes a curious personality who is well-rounded, client-facing and has an analytical mindset.
