SEO companies help to improve your business and brand awareness online. But it is a big question that whether you had find out the best SEO company that has people with good knowledge and experiences. There are people who had failed to hire the search engine optimization consultant who has good skills and experiences, which leads to failure in their SEO project and waste of time & money. Let's see few steps to follow to find the best SEO expert.
STEP 01 :
Create a short list of SEO consultants, you can find such consultants by checking out with your friends, checking your social networks, specially LinkedIn, Twitter and so on, by spreading word on local web conferences, and by doing a single Google search. Try to find about ten consultants and have them in your list.
STEP 02 :
Contact shortlisted consultants by giving your details, like your contact information, your website URL, your keyword suggestion, your target market, your target geographical market etc. Ask them to provide a proposal to you which includes analysis about your website technical report, keyword research report, their link building suggestions/plan (or a summary on what are they going to do for link building) along with their cost, time-frame etc.
STEP 03 :
The people who value their prospective customers will reply you sooner with their answers. By checking at their responses, you can see their professionalism on their responses, check weather they had given what you had asked them (like your a report on your website technical status, keyword research, link building etc) as well as other factors and narrow down the list.
STEP 04 :
Ask for referrals and previous clients of consultants on the narrowed list. Check their references and contact previous clients and ask about the completed project and so on. At this stage you may further narrow your list.
STEP 05 :
Check the online presence of the people who are in the list, check their social network profiles, blogs or forums that they are contributing too etc. By so, you can learn more in detail about that person characteristic and the professionalism. Finally choose the person who passed all your checking and verifications.
