SEO specialist – make sure it’s a good one

These circumstances are a good time to refine the site for search engine requirements as well.

What is worth checking and how to choose an SEO specialist? Below you will find Google tips and my suggestions.

Making changes as a basis for cooperation

A key aspect of effective SEO is the implementation of changes recommended by the positioner. It is best to decide and determine how the implementation of the specialist’s recommendations will look like even before the cooperation is established. If you know that you may lack the time to create and enter, for example, texts for the blog, establish from the beginning that this will be the responsibility of the positioner. Of course, positioners don’t write texts (usually), but good and experienced ones certainly have contacts with copywriters who can do it for you. I have a strong copywriting background, because I am aware that content is the pillar of SEO.

SEO specialist’s credentials – you need to ask for them

Nothing proves the quality of an SEO’s work more than his clients. From them you will learn not only about the effectiveness of positioning activities, but also about the contact, the way of doing things, the approach to cooperation. These are very important issues. If the information or testimonials from the website are not enough for you – contact the clients and clear up all your doubts. It’s also an opportunity to learn about the experience in your industry and estimate the chances of success of your cooperation. My testimonials, which I’m happy to brag about, can be found here.
