HONEST PERSON

[ginag]

Hi All, i am pretty new to this world of SEO, we are looking for an individual that is true and honest in the work they carry out. Maybe a university student who knows alot about SEO/keywords and will get our sites where they need to be. So if you want to earn some extra money to help pay for your uni fees in your time and can provide a good SEO service, please get in touch. my email is gina@carefreeparking.co.uk, we have already had companies with the WE CAN DO IT!! we just want an individual that can do the work and be true to their word.

There must be some honest people still out there. look forward to the email

Regards

Gina

Most of the times that I need help with SEO, databases, CMS set-up, etc. I go to a forum like this one and identify someone who has a good long-term reputation and gives really good advice.  Someone who communicates clearly in a way that I can understand.

Incompetent people usually don't go around exposing their ignorance in a public forum.  Lazy people usually don't give advice for free.  Forums give you a chance to identify someone you can probably trust.  If they give such great advice for free then imagine what they would deliver if you pay them.

That's how I have found really good people for work that I am not able to do my self.  I have not been disappointed yet with anyone who I have found that way.

So, spend some time here.  Ask lots of specific questions related to the work that you need.  Pay attention to the people who answer, read their profiles carefully  It will get you an education and maybe you will find someone who will do great work for you.

Not everyone here is available for work.  Some only work on their own sites or are only allowed to work on the sites related to their employer.  But there are many competent people who are available.

Hi Egol

Thank you for your response, I dont mean to be negative. References are not what they seem, we did check these people out. They had the banter but never delivered. This is why i feel let down by them.  I am sorry if i affended anyone out there, i know there are alot of honest working people out there, just cant seem to find the right person.

My reply probably isn't going to be what you are looking for but I guarantee that it will be 100% honest.

There must be some honest people still out there.

There are lots of honest people out there.  Lots and lots of them.

If you got ripped off you own part of the responsibility.  Did you check references carefully?  Did you have a contract?  Did you get proof that the service provider is successful?

Maybe a university student who knows alot about SEO/keywords and will get our sites where they need to be.

I really like university students.  I used to be one myself and used to be a professor.  However, SEO is a competitive venture and you don't want to send a skinny kid out to face the heavyweight champion.  I would hire a pro who has been in the business and who has success promoting the type of business that you own. (there are some really good SEOs enrolled in universities but they are not very common - it would like going to the grocery story and offering an SEO job to the people who are shopping)

In addition to paying for honestly you need to focus on competence.

This is best placed on the Marketplace page I would think. You can post the job and read resumes there.

You might also want to read SEOmoz's Beginner's Guide to SEO to learn the concepts and therefore know if the person you are interviewing has basic knowledge.

Good luck finding your candidate.
