Well, you have a few options....
oDesk is an example of a great resource. It's basically an online marketplace to pitch projects overseas. They have a few systems set in place to make sure the person is actually working as opposed to checking Facebook or answering Moz questions all day.
eLance essentially the same thing as above. Started out more design heavy as I remember it and more US oriented although that may have changed.
Craigslist, Glassdoor, Monster, SimplyHired.com- Search for SEO Consultant, SEO Manager etc.
What you have laid out are pretty simple SEO upkeep, as far as stuff like title tags, redirects, anchor text etc. and MOZ is an amazing program to help you find all of those things, the problem is getting someone to actually utilize MOZ in a way that helps you. Moz in the hands of my father, is a really cool program that looks nice and makes some really nice email reports that he forwards me numerous times a day. Moz in my hands, becomes an actual tool that can be manipulated. And trust me when I say, I am a peon in comparison to most on these boards.
The problem with the SEO industry that I am a part of, as well as the Graphic Design industry, as well as Social Media is that everybody is either The Best, #1, Guarantees Results, or something like that and in turn can't perform, and ends up giving the rest of us a bad name. At the end of the day, you will have to find someone who you trust, or go with an agency.
LinkedIn is a great resource. The power of referrals is pretty amazing. And honestly these forums from what I have observed are pretty amazing too.
I will leave you with this... You pay with bananas, you are gonna get monkeys.

I did a Moz report and it is the same as alexa pretty much. I am looking for someone to fix the errors
-
If I were in your situation, I would disregard what Alexa says and run a crawl on the site with Moz. Then from there hire a developer to fix the issues if you cannot, then the next crawl that moz does on your site will let you know if he has fixed them.
-
Missing title tags, duplicate title tags,redirects, broken links, reachability,missing anchor text, stuff like that. Maybe it is not a big deal.

A web developer usually. What problems did it find? Some of those services make a big deal out of things that are not actually problems.

To change or not to change site URL structure?
I am learning my way around SEO, having always used professionals for it in the past on previous businesses i have decided to do it myself and learn more about it. Now the dilemma i am up against is i recently changed some of my permalinks on quite a few main pages throughout the site. The site launched in April this year so we're quite new. The problem is since my last change i have not seen any increase...a decrease which in fact hasn't recovered at all. Having now analysed them in more depth and read up more on the whole subject of SEO, (which is endless) i have put together a complete new strategy; with this increased understanding of what i am doing (but by no means conclusive) i want to complete a full overhaul on all SEO (via Wordpress which i use along with YOAST SEO tools), ensuring i have all my keywords, permalinks and descriptions spot on throughout every page, post and picture. I spent a lot of time mapping these out, ensuring there is no Focus keyword duplication, and that the site is relatively flat in terms of its layout. What i am unsure about now is whether changing my permalinks again is a bad thing to do?

Could it permanently damage my rep going forward?
Should i just focus on my content and keywords/descriptions? I am at a loss as i don't want to do irreparable damage to our reputation. The site is still reasonable easy to manage so changing now is the best time to do it, but if changing the URLs is a waste of time then i may just forget that and just work on the keywords, descriptions and content. Advice is 'oh so welcome' 🙂0 -
Big problem with my new crawl report
I am owner of small opencart online store. I installed http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route=extension/extension/info&extension_id=6182&filter_search=seo. Today my new crawl report is awful. The number of errors is up by 520 (30 before), up with 1000 (120 before), notices up with 8000 (1000 before). I noticed that the problem is with search. There is a lot duplicate content in search only. What to do ?

Site wide 301 or canonical links.
Hi guys, I'd like add code to my header file to specify www. as opposed to just http:// for the canonical links across my entire site. How can I do this? I'd like it to be site wide code that I can just add to my header.php file which is included across the site.

Problem with left navigation links on an e-commerce site diluting pagerank
I'm trying to decide how to deal with left navigation links on my e-commerce website diluting the amount of link juice passed to other links on the page. Any suggestions? Only options I can think of are: Nofollow the links use javascript (I'm assuming googlebots are still able to find these) Leave them as they are as followed links

Is it necessary to optimize every page of a site
I recently took over the SEO work for a website that has a limited budget. I'd like to use the resources to get as much as I can for a few pages on the site (keyword research, on-page optimization). Are there pitfalls to not optimizing every page on a site? If so, what are they?

Too Many On-Page Links
I recently took on a website design client and ran his website through a battery of tests using Pro to take a look at the crawl errors. One that seems to stump me is the error "Too many On-Page links" concerning his blog. (http://franksdesigns.com/wp/blog) This is the first time I've seen this error and am rather confused. The report says there are 104 links on this page. However, I'm having trouble grasping this concept or finding the 104 links. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thank you for your support!
