How to Choose a Good SEO Consultant or Agency

This is probably one of the more important WBFs, as it covers the things you really need to think about carefully before starting your SEO journey.

In particular, note these two things.

1. A successful SEO company doesn’t need to rank no.1 on Google and therefore won’t be spending time optimizing their site to rank no.1. Sites that do rank highly probably haven’t got many clients and therefore spend more time trying to rank.

2. SEO can be very expensive and there are only so many top slots available. Think about whether you really have the time, resources and budget to commit using SEO.
