What Should You Require When Evaluating Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Vendors?

Consider the following list of best search engine optimization business practices when evaluating vendors for your next search engine optimization campaign:

What Is Demonstrable Success For Search Engine Optimization?

Ask for examples of proven success. Can the prospective search engine optimization marketing agency show proven success through graphs,  charts, and data? Does the prospective search engine optimization agency have satisfied clients as references? Do they have customer success stories such as case studies? Testimonials?

What Compromises Sound Strategies For Search Engine Optimization?

Can you believe in their strategies? Remember, for a search engine optimization marketing campaign to be successful, you and your search engine optimization agency must act and perform as a team.

Does the sales representative have a working knowledge of search engine optimization? Do they recognize and understand your needs and goals? Most importantly, do they speak your language? Are they based in a time zone that corresponds with yours for communication purposes? Do they have a commitment to response time? There is little worse in managing a successful search engine optimization campaign than having your consultant 24 hours ahead / behind your working hours.

What Defines Accountability In A Successful Search Engine Optimization Campaign?

When evaluating search engine optimization vendors, ask “what are their measures of accountability?” We have found, for most search engine optimization clients, that weekly search engine optimization consultation calls work best. How much reporting will you receive? Here, we have found that weekly analytics, rankings, and account status reports work best, even if we are on a bi-weekly search engine optimization consultation call schedule.

What Are The Reporting Capabilities Of The Prospect Search Engine Optimization Vendor?

As outlined above, we strive for providing analytics, keyword ranking results, and account status on a weekly meeting schedule. This keeps us accountable for the account performance.
