Questions We Consider When Hiring an SEO Company

Consider asking these questions we provided when talking with potential SEO agencies and consultants about your project. It’s often best to speak with 2-3 agencies or consultants before signing a contract.

  1. If we hire you, who will handle our account? Will we meet with them before we commit?
  2. For new content, how do you decide what keywords and topics to target that are relevant to our business goals?
  3. What kind of reporting do you deliver?
  4. What kind of account access do we need to provide? E.g., Google Analytics, Search Console, CMS, etc?
  5. How will you promote our brand in your SEO plan?
  6. If we are unhappy with the work, how do we cancel?
  7. Can you share case studies or examples of other clients where you had success?
  8. How do we increase visibility in AI search?
  9. Will you perform an SEO audit of our site? What are your top auditing priorities?
  10. Will we have ownership of all accounts? How about content and creative work?
