SEO Agency Recommendations
-
I'm looking for recommendations for SEO agencies for an e-commerce site in the cell phone accessories niche. The list of companies recommended by SEO Moz are out of our budget, as we are looking to stay under $3k/month.
Looking for an agency that will focus especially on link building efforts, as there has been minimal white-hat link building implemented for the site in the past. Many of the agencies we've talked to are relying entirely too much on easy wins like directory submissions and we are looking for an agency that will be able to garner us quality links as opposed to a huge amount of mediocre links.
Any recommendations for reasonably-priced, quality SEO agencies?
Thanks!

Hey Thomas!
Thanks for the response.
We have an in-house team that focuses on on-page optimization, but of course, any agency we bring in would be encouraged to aid us in on-page optimization efforts as well. Because our focus has primarily been on on-page tasks, we are looking for more assistance in off-page efforts.
Yes, I totally agree that quality content is truly the most white-hat method of link building but as we all know, it's incredibly time consuming. That's why we've been looking for an agency that can help in that particular effort. We've shopped around for content marketing agencies as well in the past but are leaning more towards a comprehensive and all-around solid SEO agency that can provide insight on both on and off-page improvements to our site.
Thanks for the recommendation! Will definitely look into it.

can I ask why are you focusing just on link building?
Have you thought of the most white hat way of link building which is link bait making truly awesome content that people want to link to. If you give me your domain I will go over a site audit for you and tell you what would be the best fit to get you the most authority for your site hence traffic than conversion rate. I can do Guest Blogging Link Audits, Infographics, Broken Link Building local links.
Your budget honestly could get you some dodgy SEO's I would feel free to contact me and if you want a off-the-cuff recommendation for your pricing.
Try evolving SEO they are very good.
I will look at your website and give you a yes or no if that makes sense.

I used to cell sell phones through my old site, ebay and Amazon. If you are looking for a link builder, get a link building strategy first. Pay someone a couple hundred dollars to help build that for you, then go shopping around.
Also, I recommend that your link builder use software like Buzzstream for outreach. You can find a couple of agencies in the top 30 users of SeoMoz. (disclaimer: I'm one of the agencies). Some focus only on link penalty removal, some on conversions, some on link building.

Link Building is always a tough one and all you need to do is to be creative. Look at your competition for your primary and secondary keywords and see what they are doing for links. Slow and steady build your domain profile.
The problem is, unfortunately, there are no short-cuts. And just one more piece of advice, don't overdo any one particular kinds of links. A mix and match of everything adds up to become a natural link profile. That's what you need to compete in the niche. It's also a steady on-going process. FYI.
I hope this helps.

How much to charge for my E-commerce SEO services and web design
Hello, I'm starting a web design company doing standard web design, E-commerce web design, and E-commerce SEO. I've been doing the nuts and bolts of an E-commerce business with four online stores, one very successful, for nine years. Since that's my main experience, I'm sticking with helping others with the nuts and bolts of their E-commmerce SEO. I also do the web design, which I've been doing since 2001. What should I charge per hour for my web design and E-commerce SEO services? I live in Boise, Idaho. I'm thinking $100 an hour for everything, is that too much for web design or too little for SEO? The SEO would be billed exact but my web design estimates are more generous. Looking for honest opinions. I don't want to over or under charge. Thanks Bob

Anyone used an SEO company they are happy with and would recommend to others?
I have been researching SEO companies. Some are not willing to provide references, while others have references with lukewarm recommendations. Any e-commerce owners/managers here that have used an SEO company that they would recommend? I am about to give up and stick to doing it in-house!

Problem with SOME Indian based SEO companies, HELP!
First of all I want to say that I hire 2 great Indian SEOs at my company and this question is in no way meant to offend, or single anyone out. However It's come to a point where the amount of emails we receive for "Ethical SEO, High PR Guaranteed Link building Services, SEO professionals etc" from Indian based companies is costing us a lot of time on a daily basis to filter out spam from real enquiries. Blocking their emails is not even working as they use gmail accounts and multiple domain emails so we can't keep up with them. I have even spoken to some of the owners of these 'companies' and they admit using different email accounts so as not to be blacklisted. They also seem to believe that the opt-out option (which is legally required when sending out promotional emails) is itself optional!!!!! Now when I asked how exactly they were getting my email they said that they get info from the, and I quote "first page of Google"!!!!! So my question is the following; is there anyway I can block my site from showing up in a particular country altogether? Again this is in no way attacking ALL Indian based SEO companies, my beef is with the 74 (we counted) different 'companies' that are flooding our email with offers P.S. Is anyone else having these issues?
