Local SEO Consultants: What to Expect

Writing by Brick Marketing on Saturday, 9 of August , 2008 at 7:31 am

Because we get a lot of mail from companies asking what they should expect from hiring an SEO consultant, we thought it merited it’s own post.

Remember that this list is by no means a complete one of what you should expect from a professional SEO consultant, but it is a basic start.

What you should expect from a professional SEO consultant:

• You should expect optimization efforts that are ethical and reflect the moral compass of your company. Your hired SEO consultant should promote white hat SEO tactics that reflect the professionalism and integrity of your business.
• You should expect that your SEO consultant create and maintain a listing of keywords for your site based upon the data that you and your company have provided. Your SEO consultant should then move forward and add to that listing with keywords that are gained from queries pulled from careful analysis based upon your target customers and competitors.
• You should expect your SEO consultant to submit your site to all major search engine directories and those more specialized engines that are relevant to your business.
• You should expect your SEO consultant to maintain all of your business listings within those search engines to ensure accuracy.
• Your SEO consultant should be expected to complete a site analysis of your current site and then correct and optimize it using correct methodologies for titles, meta tags, keywords and site mapping.
