Most SEO Consultants act in the same way as an ordinary business consultant. Primarily they supply support, knowledge and expert information to an organization to assist recognition within the search engine.
The client may receive free information, the client should not feel that their time has been wasted by the consultation period with too much technical jargon or detail on information about the delivery process which will disinterest the client.
The techiques used by SEO consultant are in the main dicussed on this site and in the most part deliver what the client expects. Client expectation is one of the toughest things to manage in SEO.
A good SEO Consultant will obviously be able to offer you technical insight at the highest level, but perhaps more important is the ability to do so in a way that makes the recommendations relevant to your business afterall the SEO consultant has the clients brand in his hands.
By way of a short list and to demonstrate some of the key points I have put a list together of things to look for:
• Everyone is a sales person in any sphere of activity but be aware of sales guys that do NOT understand or have not been part of actually deploying SEO for a client – it may sound obvious but good quality SEO is a balancing act however, it is generally common sense.
• Look for companies that have achieved page one of Google - if that was what was wanted, for good quality and difficult keywords . SEO Services Now - [sales banter mode off] have achieved that and are willing to provide the contact and references to back this up - also ask them over what timeframe they achieved their client goal .
• Get information for free, A good SEO consultant will provide this for the client but it will not be the whole story.
• Don’t be afraid to ask difficult questions in most cases a good SEO consultant will be able to answer them. Ask them how they do it.
• Have a look round, research the competition - check out the pricing too some can be very prohibitive when you dig deeper.
• Look at contracts that are less than a year with performance related targetting have them as a rolling contract so it is easy to terminate on non-performance, look for non-compete clauses also.
• Primarily check out the SEO consultant throughly, don’t forget though this is a lng term strategy – this is not a fire and forget scenario and keeping the consultant on hand when needed on a regular basis is part of the strategy.
This service is results based and easy to measure and a good SEO consultant should be able to provide what you want and when (approximately) that you want it.
SEO Services Now the company to choose to provide your next seo consultant.
