I think there are a lot ofcompanies and businesses out there who want to put their foot in the door, whenit comes to doing business. In the past, most businesses from the UK and USheld a conservative approach when it came to working with offshore SEO companies.It was the “work only through reference or recommendation approach.” Slowlythey are now realizing the benefits to doing business across the globe and notlimiting their resources to just local vendors. However, they are still shy asto how to begin such a venture. There are so many services you can request at aconsiderably low cost such as search engine optimization, social mediaoptimization, website design, press release optimization, etc. Companies are alsounderstanding the fact that SEO is a continuous ongoing effort and becomes acost effective expense when getting the work completed from offshore SEOcompanies. Businesses in the US and UK are able to hire offshore SEO companiesover 3 to 6 months with the amount they spend on local SEO companies monthly. So how can you tell whether an Offshore SEO company will be a goodbusiness partner to work with? If you think you have found a company, make sureto ask them direct questions. Asking them direct questions will give them achance to give you straight forward responses and see how well they answer. Askthem about their qualifications and their experience first. If they are beatingaround the bush, they may not be as qualified or professional as you thought.Their replies should make you feel comfortable about working with them. Youshould also be firm about letting them know that you would like only white hat SEOstrategies being used to help build consistent traffic for your website. Thereare companies that practice white hat and black hat SEO marketing tactics. Besure that you are working with a company that only follows white hat SEOmethods. Don’t be afraid to ask why the standards of their own website are notup to par. If you are curious to know, ask them. Many offshore consultancywebsites have to constantly reinvent themselves to keep up with the everchanging Internet marketing world. This causes their website to go throughconstant changing, rebuilding and upgrading. Their website may be in the midstof reconstruction so don’t jump to conclusions if their website does not meetyour standards. Ask for references to back uptheir experience. If they can show you before and after results on pastprojects they’ve worked on, you will get an idea of what to expect from them,in terms of results. The cost of SEO packages can vary from a couple hundreddollars to thousands of dollars. Think about what you want out of theirservices in terms of keyword rankings. Sign a contract with them and make surethere is some sort of guarantee. If there is no guarantee they can offer youthen there is no point of working with them. There are offshore SEO companiesthat also accept payment only after the desired results are achieved. Make sureyou outline and understand the agreed upon terms before you sign on a projectwith an offshore SEO company. Question them about their competitors. Theyshould be open about it and be able to convince you of their service worthinessover their competitor’s.There are businesses that arefinicky about giving offshore companies access to making changes on theirwebsite. But it is sometimes necessary to make key changes to your website inorder for search engines to be able to crawl it easily. When search engines areable to crawl the pages of your website more effectively, you have a betterchance of ranking well. Changes to the title tags, URLs, description, and H1tags are necessary to make your website more search engine friendly. If you arenot comfortable with providing back end access of your website to a thirdparty, they should be able to provide you the files so you can upload thechanges on your website yourself. You have to do your part and cooperate thebest you can to help them help you. The company you work with should provideyou with a ranking report at the end of the work completed, to show you thebefore and after results. If you signed on for a long term project, I wouldsuggest that you have them send you a monthly ranking report so you can see theprogress of the work being done for you. A month by month ranking analysis willalso reveal to you which SEO strategies are working for you and what areas needto be improved upon. Even if you do have a long term contract, it won’t hurt totouch base with them once a week to get an update about the work progress. Once the work is completed andyou are happy with the results, don’t be afraid to ask about other servicesthey offer. Many Offshore SEO companiesoffer a variety of other Internet marketing services such as website design,social media optimization, press release optimization, article marketing, etc.Enquiring about services does not bind you to buying them. It will give you anopportunity to find out more and think about what the next Internet marketingstrategy should be for your website.
