Today I would like to discuss the importance of a good SEO service. I still see many companies advertising search engine submissions and wanting money for it… What!!!
This is why I wanted to write this post to give an insight on what to look out for when hiring SEO services and how to tell if that company if offering what SEO is today.
Firstly a good SEO professional will not say that your website has to submitted every month, nor would they say that they could guarantee top position on Google. It is impossible for any SEO technician to say this, there are no guarantees with SEO and SEO does not essentially mean getting your site to the top of Google in 2 months.
If you read my post from a couple of weeks ago on “how SEO has evolved in the last 5 years” you can see that some of the techniques has changed and that been a good SEO practitioner is about bringing out the best of a website or online business not necessarily barging your way to the top of every big keyword in sight because it will not happen!!!
A good SEO service would offer custom SEO, they would want to see your website first to asses it. They would offer and explain to you what they could do with your website and how it they could improve it. Many optimization companies offer SEO packages but I cannot see how a reputable business could improve a website from offering all their clients the same package at the same price. Each business, website and the competition of the business plays a big part in where you can go with your website.
A good SEO would also put many hours into research of your competition, keywords, bad coding and link building alike. They would talk you through the process of what they are doing, they would also submit reports to you to prove your website is more search engine friendly and they would also consider the fact of user experience and how the structure of you website i.e menus etc.. could depend on whether a visitor becomes a possible client. It is also good practise for a SEO profession to have knowledge in online marketing, after all, this is what the whole objective of having a website is, acquiring visitors and getting business.
There are many ways to improve a website, there are a number of ways to make that website run a little bit more smoothly and start ranking higher in the SERP’s, but it is a long process, with allot of hours and hard work. If you are considering hiring SEO services or a SEO consultant, check to see what passed work they have done, have they got references? If not, go somewhere else and find a SEO who is passionate about their work, someone who will put every effort into your website and someone who is not going to fob you off for old and dated SEO techniques.
