Do not be afraid to ask questions when considering to hire a search engine optimization firm.
Some questions:
- Ask for references.
- Ask for recent reports that match the references.
- Ask to see the keyword list for the references.
- Ask to see a linking report.
- Will the SEO firm be creating an SEO Strategy?
- How will the plan be implemented?
- Who will be working on your SEO strategy?
- Can you meet with them? Are they located in another state or country?
- Is the person selling you the SEO package an affiliate? In other words, are they selling for an SEO firm in New York or California? (They should disclose this upfront).
- How many people will be working on your project?
- When will you expect some results?
- What are the goals?
- Are their any SEO metrics?
- How often will you receive reports?
- Are meetings an extra expense?
- Did the SEO firm cold call you? Can you find them in a Google search? Are they ranked in Google?
