Well, you have a few options....
oDesk is an example of a great resource. It's basically an online marketplace to pitch projects overseas. They have a few systems set in place to make sure the person is actually working as opposed to checking Facebook or answering Moz questions all day.
eLance essentially the same thing as above. Started out more design heavy as I remember it and more US oriented although that may have changed.
Craigslist, Glassdoor, Monster, SimplyHired.com- Search for SEO Consultant, SEO Manager etc.
What you have laid out are pretty simple SEO upkeep, as far as stuff like title tags, redirects, anchor text etc. and MOZ is an amazing program to help you find all of those things, the problem is getting someone to actually utilize MOZ in a way that helps you. Moz in the hands of my father, is a really cool program that looks nice and makes some really nice email reports that he forwards me numerous times a day. Moz in my hands, becomes an actual tool that can be manipulated. And trust me when I say, I am a peon in comparison to most on these boards.
The problem with the SEO industry that I am a part of, as well as the Graphic Design industry, as well as Social Media is that everybody is either The Best, #1, Guarantees Results, or something like that and in turn can't perform, and ends up giving the rest of us a bad name. At the end of the day, you will have to find someone who you trust, or go with an agency.
LinkedIn is a great resource. The power of referrals is pretty amazing. And honestly these forums from what I have observed are pretty amazing too.
I will leave you with this... You pay with bananas, you are gonna get monkeys.

I did a Moz report and it is the same as alexa pretty much. I am looking for someone to fix the errors
-
If I were in your situation, I would disregard what Alexa says and run a crawl on the site with Moz. Then from there hire a developer to fix the issues if you cannot, then the next crawl that moz does on your site will let you know if he has fixed them.
-
Missing title tags, duplicate title tags,redirects, broken links, reachability,missing anchor text, stuff like that. Maybe it is not a big deal.

A web developer usually. What problems did it find? Some of those services make a big deal out of things that are not actually problems.

Redirects for new site new urls?
If redoing a site and updating some of the url's for SEO should you do permanent redirects for the old sites url's ? Using WordPress. I saw that the Yoast Pro plugin allows you to do this inside WordPress , is this the best way? Suggestions.? I know there are old articles written out on the web pointing back to the what will be soon old url's so just wondering what's the best way to go about this. Thanks Scott

Does anyone know of an api for on site SEO?
I have searched for one, but really cannot find one that fits my needs. I am looking at making an on site grader / service that will check pages and point out SEO problems. One that I have found that I like is seorch.eu but they do not have an api. I do not want to reinvent the wheel if I do not have to. Also, the api does not have to be free, or it does not even have to be an api, it can be a self hosted application too.

Moving from Local to National Audience - Ecommerce Site
I have an e-commerce site that was optimized for local results. We’ve been receiving traffic from all over the nation so recently we've decided to optimize the site for a more national audience by removing the local business indicators. I have below a list of things that I’ve done, I’m contemplating doing and other various questions. One note I want to make is that we offer installation services – which we would still like to rank locally for. I have done the following: Remove [city] from all of the title tags (except for the installation pages) Removed NAP (name, address, ph#) from site wide footer – I’m not sure if I should have done this. Inserted NAP at the bottom of the body content of the installation pages Questions Right now my installation pages are located in a sub-folder (ex: www.mydomain.com/installation-services). Should I create a sub-domain for installations (ex: city.mydomain.com/installation-services)? My thoughts are that it would make that sub-domain all about our installation services while keeping our root domain focused on our products and not dilute it with installations. However, this sub-domain will have less juicy juice. What should I do with our G+ business page? In the back end of the business G+, there are boxes I can check for “my business has service areas where I visit my customers at their location” and “I serve customers at my business address.” If checked, will these make my site less likely to rank Nationally? We DO have a storefront and we DO visit people to do installations, so I would like these to be checked but not if it hurts my national rankings. There are local “7 pack” results for my main keywords and their installations. So, I would want my root domain to show up locally for “widgets in [city]” and my sub-domain to show up for “widget installation in [city]". Is it against Google’s TOS to create another G+ business page for the sub-domain? Is this even possible? Do I even need to do this or will Google know that I have a sub-domain all about installation and have my site show up in the local results? Is there anything in GWT that I need to make sure to have done? I put the geographic target to United States. Is there anything else? Of course, there is always the option of creating a new domain and optimize it for the installations. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

How do I stop this?!

How do you avoid getting hit for too many links with an ecommerce site?
On my campaign for www.fourcolormagnets.com one of my warnings was "too many on-page links". Is there any thing to do for ecommerce sites? and also, my page www.fourcolormagnets.com/rectangle-sizes.php is listed as having 744 links but, I count nowhere near that number. And idea where this comes from?

Getting pages indexed by Google
Hi SEOMoz, I relaunched a site back in February of this year (www.uniquip.com) with about 1 million URL's. Right now I'm seeing that Google is not going past 110k indexed URL's (based on sitemaps). Do you have any tips on what I can do to make the site more likeable by Google and get more indexed URL's? All the the part pages can be browsed to by going to: http://www.uniquip.com/product-line-card/suppliers/sw-a/p-1 I've tried to make the content as unique as possible by adding random testimonials and random "related part numbers" see here: http://www.uniquip.com/id/246172/electronic-components/infineon/microcontrollers-mcu/sabc161pilfca Do I need to wait more time and be more patient with Google? It just seems like I'm only getting a few thousand URL's per day at the most. Would it help me if I implemented a breadcrumb on all part pages? Thanks, -Carlos

Too many on page links
Our home page (and 1400 of our other pages) have well over 100 links, going beyond the recommend amount. Our competitors have less on page links (to other pages on their site) and way more link popularity so we are trying to figure out the best solution for this without hurting our sites conversions and usbaility.
