What You Should Expect From A
      SEO Professional
For many businesses, search engine optimization is a
 confusing subject. To get the most out of it, you need to
define the role of the person or business handling the seo.
What You Should Expect From A SEO Professional
Speaking as someone who provides search engine
     optimization services, I can tell you there is a lot of
  confusion regarding the role of a seo professional. Much
 of this results from the acronyms and phrases used in the
field. Businesses will pick them up and throw them around
   without really knowing what they mean. Even worse,
   many businesses do not know what the really want or
        even that they should be asking the question.
A seo professional can fill a number of roles for a business.
The simplest situation is one in which the business simply
wants the seo wizard to crank up the rankings. This sounds
  obvious, but rarely is the case. Instead, the business is
  really looking for improved rankings and a little more.
It never fails to occur. A client just wants you to move
  them up in the rankings. You come to an agreement on
 price, suggest some changes to the site and then head off
  to build links, etc. A week later, the client is calling with
  questions on conversions, purchasing banner ads and so
   on. Next week, they call with questions about pay-per-
click and so on. This is all fine, but the hand holding can be
                very distracting and frustrating.
When retaining a person or business to handle your search
  engine optimization efforts, it is important to step back
and think about what you really need. Are you looking just
 for top rankings or do you want insight into your site? Are
you, in fact, willing to take some advice, particularly if it is
critical? Clarifying this with the seo person from the outset
makes things run much smoother and keeps feelings from
                          being ruffled.
Some companies believe they are retaining a person to
 simply get them high in the rankings. Others believe they
are retaining a person to get them high in the rankings and
 advise them on their products, site, etc. The only correct
answer is what you agree to when the pen is put to paper
  at the outset of the agreement. As a person on the seo
  side, I only ask that you be clear in indicating what you
                    want from the outset.
