Why you need an SEO consultant.

SEO stands for search engine optimisation. It’s the process of enhancing your presence in the organic search listings in the search engines. So why do you need SEO as part of your marketing strategy?

Put your business on the map

Having a high ranking in the local search pack generates more qualified leads from people in your nearby area. The map pack also has a much higher click through rate than organic rankings below.

Enhance the user experience

A large part of SEO is technical and content optimisations to your website which improves the user experience for all website visitors, no matter what marketing channel they are coming through.

Higher conversion rates

You are reaching users who are actively looking for information related to your industry, products and services. Plus you’re reaching them while they’re already considering making.

SEO helps PR

In an effort to build links back to your site, it’s an SEO specialist’s job to identify opportunities for coverage on industry blogs, news publications and other relevant websites.

Higher return on investment

You don’t pay for people to click on your organic listing, you’re just paying for the SEO expert’s time. So your ROI is significant when your rankings in the search results start improving.

SEO builds brand integrity

If you’re website is listed in the first few rankings of a search result it gives potential customers the idea that you are one of the leading businesses in your field.

Industries

Am I the right SEO specialist for you?

I’m a local SEO consultant who specialises in lead generation and ranking my clients on the Google map results so if you have an ecommerce business, I’m not the right SEO specialist for you.

Some of the types of businesses I work with include property developers and real estate agents, dentists, laser clinics, solar panels installers, pest control, plumbers, conveyancers, lawyers, disability and aged care providers and the list goes on.

What does an SEO consultant do?

SEO is complex and full of intricacies, and every client is different. So I take a fairly dynamic approach to each client, each month. However, the work I do for each client generally involves the following:

Audit

How does your website stack up against SEO best practice and your competitors? Don’t underestimate an SEO audit. In fact, I use monthly audits for clients on a monthly basis as a roadmap to search engine success.

Technical

How well was your website built and how well does it perform? The search engines are placing more and more emphasis on the technical performance of a website as it plays a bit part in the user experience of a site.

On-Page

Are you implementing a sound keyword strategy? Extensive work needs to be undertaken on websites to ensure they read well, sell the message but also allow search engine bots to easily crawl and identify the key pieces of content.

Local SEO

Are you appearing in the local search results in the map at the top of page 1? If you’re a local business this is where you want to be and there are slightly different recipe for success in the local search results.

Link Building

Is your SEO agency just building hundreds of links for you? Link building can be just as detrimental to your SEO as it can be beneficial with the right link building strategy in place. It’s not about the number of links.

Content Strategy

Yes content is king but there is more to it than just adding words on a page. Great content can not only help convert more customers, it can also be used to drive more people to your site as well as help build quality links.

 SEO Packages & Pricing.

You’ll find different SEO agencies and consultants will apply a different pricing structure. I have found that the number of web pages a client’s website has generally determines how much time is needed to service that website.

Frequently Asked Questions.

How much does it cost to hire an SEO consultant?

This will vary greatly between SEO consultants and SEO agencies and it will depend very much on whether you are a local service business or an eCommerce business. I can successfully rank clients with very basic SEO requirements in the top stops for $594 (including GST), however other consultants or agencies might not offer SEO services for less than $1,000. It doesn’t necessarily mean quality is better, they may just have a higher hourly rate to account for overheads or may spend longer on your account.

Have you been doing SEO for long?

I’ve been working with SEO for over 10 years and specialising in just Google Ads and SEO since 2016. So I’ve been doing it day in and day out since then.

How long does it take to see results and traffic growth?

This is something I get asked all the time and I just don’t think its right to offer an answer other than… it depends. It depends on so many variables. How long have your competitors being doing SEO? How strong is your link profile? How engaging is your website? How much content is on your site? Is your website technically sound? Where are you located?  The list goes on. You should start seeing improvements in the first couple of months but how long its going to take to get to number one I won’t know until I start getting to know your account. You should prepared for it to take 3-6 months before you start to see a return on investment.

Can’t I do my own SEO?

You can… if you have the time and knowledge. However, its not going to be a matter of watching a few YouTube videos. I’ve been specialising in SEO since 2016 and I still find I’m learning new things every day as Google and SEO tactics evolve. You’re going to need advanced link building know-how, technical knowledge of websites and 3rd party systems, on-page strategy, content strategy and best practice for Google My Business.
