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?

When a company lets you go, what is the standard practice for a moz account? Do you simply turn it over and lose all access and moz identity? Or?
Since MOZ is a community, it seems odd to simply turn over my moz account now the company has let me go. Do people typically do this and simply start a new account every time they work someplace new? Or what? I wanted to seek out what the community thought about this -- so that I would have a better idea of how to handle this now and for the next time.

Is there anyone out there you would recommend to do a full analysis of your site? We are looking to see if we can find someone to look at our site. We have already done stuff like SeoMoz, Ahref, and Majestic.

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).

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?
