SEO Service: Best Questions To Ask Before You Hire A Consultant

KC Web Specialists SEO Service Questions To Ask blogSEO service is essential to small businesses that aren’t showing up on the first page of search engines. If you don’t have the time and technical expertise to improve your website, professional SEO service can give you a highly visible website that leads to higher sales and profits. However, you need to find the right professional for the job, and to help you with that, consider these essential questions to ask a prospective SEO consultant.

How will your SEO service improve my search engine ranking?

A qualified SEO consultant should explain their strategies for improving your website’s search engine ranking, and give you an idea of how long it will take to realistically achieve your business goals.seo ranking graph image

Do you provide blogs, social media platforms and eCommerce options?

These are important design elements of an SEO service for improving internal linking structures, developing page titles, relevant content, help your conversions, and more.

May I see a list of your current and past clients?

A reputable SEO service will not hesitate to provide you with the contact information you need to check their references.

Google SEO best practicesDo you follow Google’s best practices guidelines?

This means that the SEO service does not support spam, hidden text and links, or other fake content which can cause low search rank results or worse.  

Do you guarantee my website will rank at the top of the first page on Google?

While initially, a yes answer might seem like a good thing, it actually is quite the opposite.  In fact, it should throw up a red flag. While the consultant can design your website with many tried-and-true strategies that improve rank, it is impossible to guarantee a top of the first-page rank – only Google’s algorithms control that.

This is especially important if you’re a small business targeting a specific area. For example, if you’re a business located downtown, when your website shows up at the top of the page when someone is looking for things to do in Kansas City, they’re more likely to click on your website. 

Appearing in the top local search engine results is vital and only a skilled, professional SEO service can optimize your website to generate the results you need.

Everyone on the team at KC Web Specialists is skilled, caring, responsive and responsible. They did an awesome job creating our website (gcath.org) and answered probably 1,000 questions we had. They helped us stick to a reasonable time line to get this done, and were very patient with us as we figured out the various elements and functions we needed and wanted for our site. It's a comfort knowing they are not fading into the background now, but will be available for training and support moving forward as we need them. Pick this team for your next website need.
Response from the owner:Thank you Suzette. Being the Web design and SEO answer folks is what makes us happy :-) Glad the timeline worked for you all and look forward to being your ongoing local Website development support team. Thanks again.

They are very easy to work with. Creative, professional and keep your project on track! They even helped us with changes to our site long after our project was completed. I would recommend Chris and his team to anyone wanting to build a website!

KC Web Specialists have it together. Period. I am President of a Kansas non-profit and we recently had their team work with us to create a new website. Every step of the process was a positive experience. Everyone was timely, professional, and thoroughly skilled at what they do.

In addition, I'd like to call out two people--Chris Nastav, the owner, and Jeff Forrester, a staff member who offers support and troubleshooting. You can't find more exceptional service anywhere.
Response from the owner:Hi Sandy, you're the best. Thank you so much for your trust in KC Web Specialists, LLC. for your non-profit Website design project. You and your team were fabulous to work with. Happy to be your local partner. Thank you again for the kind words.
