Monthly SEO contract or dedicated employee?
-
Have one more question. There are people offering monthly SEO contracts like this
http://www.link-building-strategies.com/monthly-link-building.html
My question is that is it worth it for $199 a month? Though its reviews are good on freelancing sites but I can also hire a full time employee for that cost. Is there anything a dedicated employee cannot do that these guys are offering? Only drawback I see is I dont know the links where these guys are submitting but I am ready to spend much more time (my employees time) to get the things done. Please suggest.
Your valued opinions welcome

Well in today realm of SEO - you are really hiring a strategist that obtains high quality backlinks instead of low quality links in mass. You can definitely hire a company that is reputable to work on your website and provide some great value. I don't think it would be wise to hand it off to someone who has no SEO experience and is just doing a checklist everyday. Just my thoughts though.

Thanks BeardoCo,,
Even I thought so. However if I hire an employee who has no background of SEO but can do things as instructed (includes commenting etc). Is there a list of things the employee can do which will lead to quality backlinking and boost in search rankings. Just some simple but executable steps. TIA

I would personally would hire a full time SEO consultant. I wouldn't want that company doing SEO for me and definitely don't like what they are offering. They say there method is Google Penguin accepted, but its super spammy. Eventually it will be caught by Google and you will be left in a worse place.
I guess the main thing to think about is....
if they are not automating this process how in the world is it worth for them to supply all those links, articles etc for that price point each month? If its not automated then its definitely contracted out overseas.

Site Category structure detrimental to SEO?
Hi Guys, I am hoping that you may be able to help with an internal debate on whether our currently category structuring could be damaging from an SEO point of view. Our site sells t shirts primarily and as such we have a large product base of around 7000+ products. Our category structure currently works like so: Mens/T-Shirts/Movie&TV/TV/ Which I think is fairly typical, though this where it gets interesting, within this end category of "/TV/" there are around 120 categories that are used from a filtration point of view to contain items for each specific show etc, IE Mens/T-Shirts/Movie&TV/TV/Breaking_Bad, Mens/T-Shirts/Movie&TV/TV/Game_of_Thrones. The vast majority of these categories have between 1 and 3 products within them and the rest higher. Multiply this by the large amount of categories that we have on site and these end level "Band Title" categories amount to around 13,000+ categories in the directory. If at this point we put the filtration element aside, what is the communities opinion of the benefits or drawbacks of having the category structure like this? Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Improving SEO Structure of a Page
Our site is an online Marketplace for Services. Naturally, we have a lot of unique content in the form of :
Technical SEO | | Ideas2life
a) Job Posts
b) Profiles of Service Providers We also have 2 very important pages:
a) The Job Listing Page
b) The Service Provider Page The Listing pages have very valuable H1 Titles, but everything else is duplicate content. To capture those keywords currently in H1, we have created a different landing page for each category page, and we`ll optimize around that, so these H1s are not that big of a deal any more. These landing pages are the key to our SEO strategy and we are building new content every day to help them rank I want to make the Listing Pages No Index Follow. This way they pass Juice to Jobs, and Profiles which have unique contents, but are not indexed themselves. Is this a bad idea? I have been thinking about doing this for over a year but it never felt important enough to be worth the risk of accidentally screwing up We `ll soon do a new on page flow optimization and that's why I am considering this again. Thank you so much in advance Argyris0 -

Hi seomozzers, We are creating a brand new website for a client and I would like to run an seo moz crawl to fix what has been done wrong. So my question is it ok to run an SEO moz crawl with a dev URL? Are final URLs and dev URLs will give me the same results or not? Basically, Should I wait for getting the final URL or is it ok to run a crawl under a dev URL such as www.dev2.example.com or http://183.2564.2864? Thank you 🙂
