This video was published Feb 14, 2017 and is still one of the most helpful pieces of guidance for businesses looking for help with their SEO efforts.
In this 11:37 minute video, Maile Ohye, Google’s Developer Programs Tech Lead, defines a clear process to follow when hiring an SEO agency.
Maile provides a clear explanation about what SEO is and how it should fit into a business’ overall marketing strategy.
At WSI Connect we follow the same process that Maile recommends when evaluating an SEO agency. Here is the summary of her recommended process:
- Conduct a 2-way interview with your potential SEO. Check that they seem genially interested in you and your business.
- Check their references.
- Ask for (and you’ll probably have to pay for) a technical and search audit.
- Decide if you want to hire.
This happens to be the same core process that we’ve followed with our clients since inception.
