SEO is an acronym for "search engine optimization" or "search engine optimizer." Deciding to hire an SEO is a big decision that can improve your presence on the internet and sales. But you can also risk your site's stability. Make sure you do your research before choosing an SEO. An irresponsible SEO can really do damage to your site and company's reputation. Many SEOs provide useful services for website owners, including:
- Review of your site content or structure
- Technical advice on website development: hosting, redirects, error pages, JavaScript
- Content development
- Management of online business development campaigns
- Keyword research
- SEO training
- Expertise in specific markets and geographies.
Keep in mind that Google's search results pages includes organic search results and often paid advertisements. Advertising with Google won't have any effect on your site's presence in their search results. Google never accepts money to include or rank sites in search results, and it costs nothing to appear in organic search results.
If you're thinking about hiring an SEO, the best time is when you're doing a site redesign, or launching a new site. That way, we can ensure that your site is designed to be search engine-friendly from the bottom up. A good SEO can help improve an existing site, as well. The longer you have had your domain online, the better.
Some useful questions to ask an SEO include:
- Can you show me examples of your previous work and share some success stories?
- Do you follow the Google Webmaster Guidelines?
- Do you offer any online marketing services or advice to complement your organic search business?
- What kind of results do you expect to see, and in what timeframe? How do you measure your success?
- What's your experience in my industry?
- What's your experience in my country/city?
- What's your experience developing international sites?
- What are your most important SEO techniques?
- How long have you been in business?
- How can I expect to communicate with you? Will you share with me all the changes you make to my site, and provide detailed information about your recommendations and the reasoning behind them?
While SEOs can provide clients with valuable services, some unethical SEOs have given the industry a bad rep through their aggressive and often unethical marketing and attempts to manipulate search engines. Practices that violate Google's guidelines may result in a negative adjustment of your site's presence in Google, or even the removal of your site from their index.
- Be wary of SEO firms and web consultants or agencies that send you email out of the blue.
- No one can guarantee a #1 ranking on Google.
Beware of SEOs that claim to guarantee rankings, allege a "special relationship" with Google, or advertise a "priority submit" to Google. There is no priority submit for Google. In fact, the only way to submit a site to Google directly is through their Add URL page or by submitting a Sitemap and you can do this yourself at no cost whatsoever.
