I need to outsource SEO ... who do you guys use??

Bro, it took me long years of suffering to learn this. This is something that I didn't want to hear when I posted a question like yours. I guess I had to go through paying people to botch up clients websites, not delivering results or worse. It was a life lesson.

Coming from the other side, I can completely understand if this falls on deaf ears.

Learn to do SEO yourself.

The End.

Yeah unfortunately outsourcing this stuff is pretty hit and miss.

I never really had proper success until I hired people and taught them myself.

This is something I post every so often, it is not directly applicable to this thread but it should give you a decent outline of what to learn...

I have no experience to hair a SEO Marketer.

Search in net for outside seos you will get a huge list of firms who are dealing with the website promotions

You can hire yoast SEO specialist. But charge is very high. https://yoast.com/hire-us/

I agree about learning to do it yourself. It's a constantly changing thing, but if you don't get too far from white hat methods you should be okay over the long haul.

Here are a few I know are good. I've been a member of all 3 and am still a member of one. They're ranked in no particular order.

Local Profit Breakthrough - A TON of information! It was almost too much, as I was getting overloaded. They also have an active Facebook group.

Spartan Marketing Academy - Good information from people that do SEO for a living. There are a few well known Warrior members there.

Semantic SEO - This is where I'm at now. I have a friend online that bought a website from me a few years ago and he's good at SEO. This is who he recommended when I asked him recently. I prefer it because it doesn't just focus on local, it also teaches how to rank affiliate products and more. It shows how to optimize YouTube videos, how to use Web 2.0 properties to gain natural backlinks, they stay away from PBNs completely and there's also Facebook groups where you can ask questions. I've been in other courses before that had parts of what's here and these guys seem to teach a lot of everything. You can join at different levels, too.

OMG Machines is another one, but it's expensive to join. I haven't joined that one yet.

HTH

It was so much easier a couple years ago. There were many people selling SEO services here on the forum, but all those people are gone now.

My business model was spend my time finding clients, and when I land them just come here to the forum and find someone to do the work. I dont have the slightest idea how to do it myself, and I dont really have the time.

I could go to google and find someone I guess, but there wont be the feedback and reviews like you would have about each seller here on the forum, and I am sure the cost will be alot higher.

I am surprised that nobody here seems to outsource the SEO anymore, I thought that is how most offliners did it .

Use well experienced SEO companies that has high quality profile for getting best results.
If you just want to hire a marketer then, many sites provide you Google updates easily. You can hire a freelancer for this purpose.

I tried outsourcing a few years ago. I went with the most expensive U.S. based company I could find. Their work was so bad I felt like I could do a better job than them at the time.
At this point I feel like maybe 5% of SEO companies can actually rank a site. I wouldn't count on an outsourcer.

For the better outsourcing you can search in the bidding portals there you will be able to see the companies past work, the websites they have ranked and also the feedback from there past clients are also mentioned there.

Outsourcing is not something that works in this industry. SEO is not a simply task. In that regard, if company is any good, they would have made much money by themselves, directly offering services to end user. Forget the idea.

There is no easy way to outsource SEO unless you have big cash. You have to learn and experience it yourself try different things those things that work write down. And try to fix them mistakes.

I am using h3adrush.
It is an SEO company of US and getting very reliable results from it.
It is well ranked and providing the best results for clients.

They say, you should learn how to do something yourself before you hire others to do it for you. How you gonna teach them what to do if you don't know yourself? You will get every bozo offering to work for you for the money, and it is long gone when your client wan'ts to sue you for screwing up their site.

Yes, SEO still works. You need to know what to outsource and how to handle the work.

@ Simonseed

Thanks man just sent them an inquiry, I was looking for a decent seo company that gives consistent results and h3adrush does seem to fit the bill.

I can help you by referring some experts, if you are interested in outsourcing.

Marketer's Center has been on WF for years, about 10 different reseller SEO services.

Hello !

Thank you

I have been using Max Web Rank.com - Keyword SEO & Mobile Marketing | Mobile Websites Design, WordPress, SEO, Apps, Video, SMS, Text Marketing, Social Since 2001 for years. Affordable and trust worthy!!!!
Ask for John...he is the Bomb!!!

The best SEO I did so far is not doing any SEO
It may not be true for local search, but other type of SEO is not really working on the long run.

edit: I have 50K+ daily US visitors from Google with no backlinks or offsite optimization.

To clear things up - you shouldn't blindly outsource SEO works. Like others have said, learn SEO and try to do it yourself. Only outsource tasks that you want (article writing, syndication, etc) , instead of relying 100% to SEO agencies.

Try to look for a SEO freelancer on Freelancer.com
They have a good rating system and you will know exactly who to hire.
If you don`t want to go to Freelancer.com, you shoul ask the old users here for advice. (aim for anything above 2000 post count)

You must first know how to accomplish the task at hand! if you have that experience you can then and only then rate and review a true outsourcer otherwise it will always be hit or miss!

Well I don't come here much since the site was sold. It is not the same. But that said, we do marketing services for clients. I don't sell SEO per say, as marketing is more than just getting your site ranked on Google. That pesky back button gets most sites.

If you are still following your thread jstarx hit me up and I can advise you more. It is better done on the telephone though, and I am willing to give you a free consultation.Are you a local company, or national or what. It makes a bit of a difference of course.

So I actually just wrote a blog post on my process of how I outsource most of my business, you can check it out over at this little link.

You essentiall need 4 members of staff, although one is better if it's done by you, as their job is to ensure everyone else is on target and doing things correctly.

You need at least one of each of the following in my experience:
A project manager
A prospector
An outreach manager
A writer

Thie roles and tasks are broken down in the post.

Good list and definitely wise to learn how to do it yourself if you are outsourcing.

Instead maybe you can hire a SEO specialist.. who knows what needs to be done.. be thorough while interviewing.. one must have clean and clear knowledge of building backlinks,

There are a huge number of people out there who claim to be an expert in SEO. A lot of them are ones that know how to go through the motions of backlinks, etc. but are clueless to looking at it from a higher level: you want people who are searching for your services to find you. There is a business and human side that is more important than number of backlinks.
I hired and fired a great number of so-called SEO experts who didn't understand the human/business marketing aspects. For example, one person insisted that the keyword "psychologist" was a good keyword for a hypnotherapist. I could believe that maybe this so-called SEO expert didn't understand the business side, but then he insisted that he was right. I promptly stopped using him. From my experience, the majority of so-called expert freelancers are worthless or close to worthless. It's essential that top notch keyword research is done correctly. For example, what's the point of being at the top of the SERP for dog grooming, when you do cat sitting?
In my situation, I've been doing SEO since 2007, so I knew when these people were not good. If you don't know anything about SEO, they can tell you anything and you would believe it as they will give you loads of detailed reports (or maybe nothing - I ran into that also).
I finally found excellent staff people to support my customers well - but I sure kissed a lot of frogs before I found them!
Please feel free to ask for any more help.

I think for best SEO Link building, content writing, forum posting etc are best ways to make your business with high boost..
