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:

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.

Dilema in hiring SEO company services
Hi My question is one that most startups face. No large budgets for online SEO marketing and lack of quality SEO consultants willing to work for peanuts. To the point: 1. Where can I read reviews of SEO consultants before giving a contract? 2. Is it naieve to expect an SEO contract based on real ROI i.e. increase in qualified enquiries? All I spoke to over last 12 months refuse to commit, even in part, to this requirement. My take is what good is an SEO contract if all I get is loads of reports of work done? I do not have the capability to analyse the reports hence I employ someone! 3. I have SEOMoz pro memership. Can I do my SEO myself by using the tools in the dashboard? thanks to all for reading my post.
