I have to echo what others are saying, just to be honest with you - even most decent consultants I know have minimums of about $1,500/month for retainer work. Most agencies won't deal with anything below $2,500/month (here in the US).
You could work with a freelancer (domestic or overseas) and get a decent chunk of hours for $500/month, but you'd be talking about a lower level of experience. If you can segment what you want and really lay out projects, I think that's fine. If you need someone to tell you what you should be doing and guide the process, it's going to be a lot tougher.
We do have a recently updated recommended list, but many of the firms are higher-priced:

I think that Portent Interactive out of Seattle does reasonably priced audits (starting in the $1,500 range) - that might be a good starting point, as @Nakul said. Spend your first 3 months of budget on a solid site audit, figure out where your gaps are, and then go from there. You can do some of the initial work yourself and then hire a freelancer/contractor to do some small-scale projects based on what the audit found.

I deal with budgets that small and have good success with them too..

All you need is:
-
A really good keyword research report (this is important because you don't want to target the wrong keywords with such a small budget)
-
Some basic on-page optimization (don't need to spend a fortune here, and most of the time I include this in my basic pricing)
-
Continual link building.. this is really where most/all of the money goes..
Feel free to contact me at [email protected] if you need a quote or some help

I would recommend spending that money getting an SEO Audit done and based on the outcome, plan your SEO Strategy. You can try and do some of the stuff yourself and have an SEO company do the rest. I would also spend time educating yourself (specially since you already have this resource handy....SEOMoz.org

I tried freelancer but is the one of the most crappy sites. All are using xrumer and some other cheap robots.(i realized from the samples of work what they are sending to me, trying to convince me to award the project).stay away from there. dont bother to post project. If you want I can share my horrible experiences from the providers from there.AAAAAAAAAAAAA.....I hope that the next update of Google ban them all....I get sick of them...

Does a blog on a subdomain pass on SEO credit to the main domain?
When setting up a Hubspot blog you are asked to create a subdomain such as blog.website.com in order to have the blog hosted there. Two questions: 1. Does a blog on a subdomain pass on SEO credit to the main domain?
Industry News | | cmortensen
My understanding is that a subdomain is treated like a unique site but I'm not finding current articles to confirm this is still true. 2. If it does not pass on credit to the main domain and the subdomain is only building "SEO love" for itself but your posts are getting found and driving conversions... from a marketing perspective does this non-transfer of SEO credit really matter? Meaning if blog.website.com is linked to the navigation on website.com, your site has quality content, has relevant calls to action, and you are lead nurturing like a good marketer... does the passing of SEO credit matter if your posts are what's getting found and filling the top of the funnel? Thank you in advance,

Is there a Step by Step Online Tutorial for SEOing?
Hi People I know this sounds like a real dumb question, but hey! I thought I would ask. I am a newbie, and after continuously spending $165.00/day for my PPC adwords campaign for the last 5 years, I MUST get my site naturally ranked higher. So as a newbie; yet understanding the basic principles about SEOing, I searched High and Low for an accredited course, an educational programme or anything that looked structured, and had a distinct step by step structure, and to my amazement I couldn't find much. I did find Dan Thiess' online guide, the SEOMOZ guide, and a few other bits n pieces. It appears that SEO learning is all over the place. I couldn't find any courses at the local universities either! So I thought...well what does it take to become an SEO consultant if there's no real formal qualification as such? And my answer was...Experience and proof of experience! That is, a consultant of who has been around for quite a few years and can prove to potential customers that ... hey you see this website www.????.com notice how it's ranked #1 ? That's because of me! So I thought, I would post this question to the forum and 1. See if there is some formidable training course with a valued and recognised qualification upon completion? 2. If I am able to work for a consultant at no charge to them at all in exchange for their knowledge. I have a wealth of experience in business and people management, and Yes I do have some Web Development and IT experience. But I know to some consultants this is a big ask, so I thought I would put it out there! (you never know until you ask.) In the meantime if anyone could possibly guide for a step by step program...that would be greatly appreciated. Cheers George

What is the Best Way To Structure A Growing Internet Marketing Firm?
I have been asking a lot of personal friends (who own SEO companies) this question and have found that it seems to be on all of their minds. From BlueGlass to a small start up consulting firm, it seems that everyone is doing things different and constantly shaking it up. I am wondering what SEOMozers are doing/have done for their company structure?
