How to get organized for Freelance SEO
-
Hi there, I'm fairly new to SEO but have learned a substantial amount in the last 8 months or so. I currently run my own web design company but want to add a new SEO service to the list. My question to you all is this...
How do other SEO'ers organise their week for clients with SEO needs? Do you dedicate a day per client, divide your day up into hourly segments per client?
What i'm looking for is a rough guide as to how I should get organized for the new service that I want to provide.
How do you monitor what you have been doing with a client? There are sooo many questions that I want to ask, ut feel I may end up driving people crazy.
Any help/advice will be welcomed with open arms!!
Many thanks..
Alex

Haha no worries Alex, we've all been there!
My first step is to usually create a work process for each SEO related task I'll need, for example:
http://www.popvia.com/work-processes/guest-post-acquisition-and-follow-up/
How are you planning on billing?
- Monthly
- Per hour
What KPIs are you using to determine campaign success?
- Traffic
- Conversions/Sales
What tools are you going to use for?
- Rank Checking/Error Checking (SEO Moz assumed)
- Quick 404 error checking
- Task management (try trello)
Let me know a little bit more about what you are looking for and we can build upon your questions.

SEO software for multiple views - Responsive web design
We have a responsive web design website and noticed this morning that we are ranking better on a cell phone search than on a PC search. There has been talk about this happening. My competitors do not have cell phone views or responsive websites. Does anyone know if Moz is planning on adding this kind of ranking information to their reports? Thanks Carla

Why am I not getting my allowance of 10,000 inbound links in csv download file? 370 out of 4700??
Hi, I'm desparately trying to audit my backlinks to remove a penguin penalty on my site livefit.co.uk When I do the inbound link report i'm not getting all the links in the download. I know there is a limit of 25 links from each linking site so we get the full picture of links bu: I have 4700 links so why does it need to limit it when we are supposed to see up to 10,000? When you check the link profile on the report it doesn't seem there are many sites with anything close to 25, so surely that rule is invalid as an explanation here? Should I just work off OSE? But there is less useful info than on the csv.. I'd be very grateful for your thoughts. Thanks! James

Is having the company's address in the footer (or header) of each webpage important for SEO?
Is having the company/office's address in the footer (or header) of each webpage important for SEO? Your page for the Geotarget tool says that having the address in this element helps search engines find your location. My question is, how important or relevant is this to SEO? How does knowing the address influence SEO? Is it best SEO practice to put the address in the footer of every webpage? http://www.seomoz.org/geotarget
