Finding a local internet marketing company who can best service your needs can be tricky. Here are a few tips to help you identify the “players” vs the “posers,” which will make your life a lot easier in the very near future.
- GOOGLE: Lets say you’re looking for a Denver SEO to help with your 2011 business. If you’re solicited by a SEO Agency Google something like “Denver SEO” or “SEO Denver” and see if they show up – if not…. How can you expect them to get your website ranked if they cannot do it for themselves?
- ASK FOR REFERENCES: A Reputable SEO Company should have no problem giving you 3-5 references. If there’s any hesitation in this you should probably look elsewhere.
- CASE STUDIES: See if they can provide you with examples of work that they’ve done along with any progress reports for traffic and keyword strategies.
- FOOTER SPAM: If at all during any of the above you see any of their clients with footer spam (i.e. Powered by Denver SEO) or some other variation of spam that requires the client to link back to the SEO Company.
- Google them: If the SEO Firm has any sort of reputation at all it will be on Google. If you cannot find anything on the company you should seek SEO services els-ware as they are probably not established in what they do.
Following these simple and seemingly obvious tips to screening a SEO Company will save your business $ and longterm headaches. Thats it for now! Happy Hunting.
