How to choose an SEO company?



Website audit
Each professional SEO company, after the first conversation with a potential business partner, will propose to perform a website audit. This is not the result of trying to "squeeze in" an additional service, but the need to obtain relevant information about the site.

SEO audit allows you to obtain a lot of important information that allows you to evaluate its parameters, structure and content. Having such information at hand, it is possible to create an appropriate action plan (strategy) according to which changes or supplementing the missing elements will be introduced.

Depending on what procedures a given SEO company has, an SEO audit may be included in the package of services (if we sign the contract earlier) or be additionally payable (e.g. before signing the contract). The audit report is most often discussed with the client. SEO companies know that not everyone has knowledge in the field of website optimization. That is why the meeting is usually held in the company of the person responsible for the audit and analysis of the data obtained as a result of it.

Professionals avoid using difficult phrases and industry slang. They try to explain all issues clearly and in an understandable way, because the basis for further cooperation is a mutual understanding of the needs and measures that need to be taken to satisfy them.

Transparent contract
In adulthood, we sign many documents. It often happens that some of them are constructed in such a way that it is very difficult to understand them, and the number of paragraphs discourages from a thorough analysis of the records.

An offer of services offered by an SEO company
Everyone who runs an SEO company knows that comprehensive services encourage potential business partners to establish cooperation. Hence, on the Internet you can sometimes come across offers that even “burst at the seams” with the number of services that can be provided in this area.

You should consider: how many of them will actually affect the optimization and positioning of my website and is it worth my money?
The truth is, a good SEO offer is like a perfectly tailored suit - made to measure. Although the basic issues will be common to both an e-commerce store and a website, more advanced services, which will not necessarily be useful to us, will have to be paid for by us every month.

So before we decide on a specific SEO company's offer, we should check what other agencies or freelancers are offering. However, such an interview should be conducted in depth, not only on the basis of a telephone conversation or e-mail correspondence. In a face-to-face conversation, you can better "feel" the company and see if you understand each other.

As in the case of a contract, a reliable SEO company will show us exactly why a specific scope of activities will be most beneficial for us. Such companies know that by focusing on honesty and openness to a partner, you can build lasting relationships for long-term cooperation.

Terms of termination of the contract
For various reasons, we are sometimes forced to end cooperation. This happens when we want to change the company from SEO, we close the business, or we decide that we will do it ourselves, because we have acquired the appropriate skills in this regard. Regardless of the reasons, it is always necessary to terminate the contract at this time. As certain mechanisms cannot be stopped in place, the client must be aware that each contract will have a notice period - longer or shorter, but it will be. If the contract is transparent, it contains clearly defined conditions that are related to the resignation from the services provided. It is important to note when signing the contract whether there are any provisions on contractual penalties. These most often occur in the implementation of projects that require initial investments on the part of the SEO company. These do not always have to be financial issues, but also, for example, to prepare a work schedule for a team that requires full reconstruction when the client resigns.
