Recommend a Freelancer or Company
-
Hi,
Can anyone recommend a freelance SEO consultant or company in the UK, who have proven results and don't cost a fortune?
We deal with very small businesses, who want to get some traction on the search engines, but can't afford much per month.
Or are the days of $250 a month contracts gone, because of the work involved now?
Any help appreciated.

No problem Barney good luck!

Thanks iPositions - we are in discussion with a few people at the moment and ideally looking for someone closer to home - so I will get back to you if we need any more help.

Hey Barney I'd be happy to have a chat with you if you have the time, We deal with loads of UK clients at that price range. If you message me your number I'll give you a call (and show you some proof :))

Hey Barney
There is just no one size fits all answer. If you want to email over a couple of your clients details, keywords they are targeting etc then I can take a look.
There are just so many variables but in most cases, for small, local businesses, just doing the basics and going after regional keywords and the like usually does the job.
Happy to take a look at anything you have and give you some specific feedback for individual jobs.

Hey Marcus,
Thanks for your response.
The clients we are dealing with will generally post a few news articles and are maybe doing a bit social, but they don't want to have too much involvement.
They generally just want to get some results for some fairly non-competitive keywords.
My problem is I don't really have the time to dedicate to the monthly work, so we are looking for a company we can out-source to.
One example is www.stratfordenergy.co.uk.
But essentially - yes - they basically want to spend a few hundred a month and see some results on Google. So maybe the bugger question is - is this just not a realistic option with all the recent changes to Google and SEO world?

Hey Barney
It really depends on what you are looking for here? Do you have existing sites that are adding content and just need a half day of consultancy a month to make sure they have their on page and technical SEO ducks in a row - OR - are you hoping that these clients can do nothing to their sites and just throw £150 a month at someone and that will improve their rank (by whatever means).
For a lot of small or local business, just getting everything set up right with local search in mind can be enough but as ever, it's a horses for courses approach and there is no one size fits all, SEO product that can be applied.
Any examples of the type of customers you have?

What is the most current advice on editing your company Wikipedia page?
I've noticed a lot of incorrect and misleading information on our company Wikipedia page. Should we, as a company, be actively monitoring and updating this page when we spot factual errors. I realize wikipedia doesn't want marketeze or heavy PR on company pages, but those are the people that generally pay attention to wikipedia entries. Also, we certainly don't want to get penalized or cause any undue media attention from our edits. If possible can you also offer links to other sources rather than just opinion or personal experience, I'm having to present this to a large corporate board and want to be as detailed as possible. Thank you,

Are you an in-house SEO or an Agency/freelancer SEO ?
Really curios about the pie split on SEO MOZ community about this. So, are you an In-house SEO or an Agency / Freelancer SEO ? (personally as prediction I would say in-House SEOs are predominant here - just curios to see the ratio - although not sure how many SEO MOZ members are reviewing the Q and A area but again it will be nice to see the ratio of the in house vs agency that are spending time on Q and A's).

What are some good organizations an SEO company can join that are strong trust signals?
We are working on a website redesign, and want to prominently include some trust signals that help people feel comfortable with us. We're including logos of a few places we've guest posted, and also the BBB and local chamber of commerce. Do you have any other ideas on logos we can include that are good trust signals? Any associations or organizations we could join? We are a trustworthy company, we just want a way to communicate that visually, and it seems organization seals and logos are the way to go. Thanks!

My company helps health care providers with internet and social strategy and solutions. At times, my clients need SEO services and I need a trusted and skilled pro to turn to who I can collaborate with on behalf of my clients. I may even be interested in putting together an SEO package for my clients if I can find the right person/agency to work with. Thanks for any help/advice you can offer.

How to Educate my Company About SEO
Hey Mozzers, I'm currently faced with a situation that I believe is probably quite common in the SEO industry. I'd like to get the input of the SEOMoz community to see how others have handled this situation and how I can use that to help my company and of course myself in this process 🙂 Here's the dealio. I recently obtained a position at a fairly large company ($500 million annually) with the task of being our Lead SEO, which I am loving, but am finding one thing to be a big hurdle to our success. Essentially no one here has any pre-existing knowledge about what SEO and inbound marketing are. There are a few younger folks who understand some of it, and a few of those who I work with on a daily basis are starting to get it, but I fear that many of the folks on our webteam and even higher up do not understand the value of SEO, the implications of certain things the webteam does to our website, and moreso the value of me being here as the sole SEO expert. I'm wondering if anyone else out there has been in a similar situation and how I might be able to effectively instill a culture of SEO within my company to get people to think about SEO before they do things. My first goal is to ensure people think about SEO before making changes to our site. My second goal is for them to see the power of proper SEO, thus proving how valuable I am to the company. Thoughts anyone?
