I'm looking to compile a list of trustworthy, quality SEOs (individuals) and companies. I'm hoping that the veterans of this board who are interested in getting new clients will post their sites/creds here. I'd love to be able to send clients that we have to turn away to some reputable, SEOChat members.
Please mention if you do full-scale SEO (i.e. content & link-building, article writing, etc.) or just consulting. Thanks much! |

The best place for this is http://www.seoconsultants.com
Active Members 143 | Submissions Pending 73 | Declined 674 | Profiles Pending 0 It is the only third party gauge for quality currently established and better than "we are experts, we are full service, we guarantee that you can pay us"! ;)

I'm always in for this kind of offer... Our site is in my profile. We provide full-scale "white-hat" SEO/SEM services. At the moment we are a bit rushed and can't take any new clients before Jan2005. Quote:
I hate to say, but I have very mixed feelings to their listings. They do show some good listings, but especially in non-us/uk market they are in some areas heavily biased.

Ferret & 2K - Thanks much.
I always wondered about seoconsultants. Their list seems very complete, but it's hard to believe there are that many competent SEO folks out there... |

No Shame in that - why be modest? It doesn't get you business!
I would like to be able to add myself to this list but I am far too busy until the new year! I will be launching my new web design and promotion company at the end of November if all goes to plan! I am busy with that. We are first selling hosting packages and then developing several template sites and certain web services. Then we are turning our attention to SEO. We already have a relationship with a web design firm to do contract SEO. |

Let make self-promotion a bit.
Our website is www.seostyle.com We provide full "white-hat" SEO/SEM services. We have big experience of search engine optimization especially in high competitive areas, but with ethical methods. We now have an opportunities to take some more clients to work with. Think you'll be fully satisfied with the quality of services we provide and our affordable, competitive prices. Thanks, |

Since we are on the subject (stuff as this is meant for private discussions not public).
But if you are going to do the self promotion end of things here is what I would like to see. 1. Client ranks are a far better gauge for competency... a SEO does have inside knowledge within their own industry & markets, but I don't believe your targeted clientele are other SEOs. 2. Best achieved performance. If used car terms these are good to know for a car dealership... if SEO terms is your best well it says miles about what clients can generally expect in their industry since servicing yourself seems to be more important. 3. Worst achieve performance - this is quite insightful information. If real estate terms was your worse case this says two things: you're not experienced in that industry but more importantly - honesty thus credibility. 4. Dissatisfied clients - and why? Again honesty & creditability. 5. Full service - few SEOs can back this up... hosting, design (web & graphics), database, programming & CMS, Industry research, market research, copywriting, wire service, RRS feeds, PPC/PPI, SEO coding enhancement, link development to name a few. How does your portifilio compare? Anyone can say they are all singing & dancing upfront - after-the-fact is more important. Last edited by fathom : November 10th, 2004 at 12:22 PM. |

I'd actually prefer not be as critical in this thread. I'm more looking for SEOs on the board who have open time in their schedule to take on new clients. I'll do my own reserach into their background before making a recommendation. I was hoping for more of a list of websites and company names, rather than a "this is why my company is the best"...

sorry randfish to screw your thread, did you get "america the book" yet
I just went overboard for the all the passer bys, but hey now that its screwed, might as well continue with chest beating Quote:
I actually can provide hosting, and I can do web design most the sites in my portfolio are designed by me, some of my newer sites are acutally designed by one of my contractors but most them arn't in my porfolio, yet. I learned seo because I wanted to find a way to sell web design services, but hey web design prices arn't really going up I can also do database programming, I have a 4 year degree in CIS which I graduated with honors, I have worked 3 years as web(php/asp) and visual basic programmer. I have written stuff from scratch many programs ranging from simple shopping carts to networked multiple user database management software in VB.NET(which in the big scheme of things is sort of micky mouse). But in all honesty I am not a super programmer, I don't have huge love for it. PPC? whats that anyways my biggest weakness I am not a writer, cannot do copywriting, but I do have a contracter who does writing Quote:
I knew some negativity would come out in thread like this, can't we all just get along |

Quote:
Granted and not attempting to paint a negative picture of the industry or any firm. My points are all valid concerns of your clients (whether they know it or not). There is nothing worse particularly for the agent that is outsourcing the workload and stamps their seal of approval and the client paid only to have lackluster results. Who is at fault in this situation. The client, the agent, the outsourced SEO? Who credibility and reputation is at stake? I may be quite candid (maybe too candid) but third party outsource is double risky and isn't necessarily the fault of the SEO. In most SEO fail strategies - it isn't because the SEO is incompetent or a con - the nature of the industry is the greatest unknown. There is no such thing as a SEO adept in "all industries". Deep pockets, large workforce and an enormous network of web properties (plus the knowledge & skill) is the only "all encompassing" minimal risk bet and even then it's not a sure thing. But in the end - you as the agent - are you assuming accountablity of failure for the client - if not the previous post is what you need to look at. |

Fathom - Thanks, I know you have good intentions.
I wasn't seeking to outsource so much as reference. I'd like to be able to send people who ask us for help to someone who's reputable, knowledgable and has some history on the boards - I find that reading someone's previous 50 posts is a great way to get to know how successful they're likely to be at SEO work. I'll definitely make recommendations carefully though... |
