Picture this: You tell your digital marketing agency you are thinking of switching providers or bringing SEO in-house. Suddenly, they act like you just kicked their puppy. They warn you ominously, "If you stop, your website will disappear from Google."
Cue dramatic music. Enter their favorite fear-driven sales pitch. Except, spoiler alert, it is total nonsense.
These agencies love to go full doomsday prophet:
Here’s the truth: That is not how SEO works. Period.
SEO rankings do not evaporate just because you dumped your agency. Rankings are based on the quality of your content, your website structure, backlinks, and user experience. They are not tied to an ongoing monthly bribe ...I mean, retainer.

Your rankings are based on content quality, backlinks, technical SEO, site speed, and user experience, not monthly agency payments.
Not if you do it smartly. Keep ownership of your domain, hosting, analytics, and content. Transition carefully and you are fine.
