    Default Does hiring a SEO work to increase trafic to a website?

    Hi All
    I am considering hiring a SEO to improve trafic to my website but the one that i spoke to wants a 12 moth commitment
    which is fine if they help you generate sales. Does anyone have any experiance with SEOs and if they work?

    thanks

    If we hire an expert SEO to build high authority links then our organic search traffic also will increase day by day but slowly; always look for an SEO person with white hat strategies.

    Yes, that does sum it up.

    Make sure they are reputable, if they use black hat strategies it can backfire and leave you worst off.

    Can an SEO expert improve traffic to your site ? Yes. Can they guarantee more sales ? No.

    if I had to choose between spending the same money on either SEO or Google Adwords, I'd spend it on SEO

    I have been toying with the idea of hiring someone to take care of my SEO stuff for a while now, but the amount of rubbish "experts" out there has been putting me off. I was thinking of asking people who they would recommend, but the people I was going to ask hire SEO guys who charge more money than I could even hope to afford to pay.

    Would it be too ambitious to hope to find someone for less than $1000?

    If you are ranking number one or two on google, for the search, why would you want to employ a seo.

    It depends.

    If you get there, you want to stay there. Without regular work you wont stay there.

    It also depends on what you want to rank on and with what keywords. Every person that uses a search engine links has a different idea as to what words they use to search....you need to cover them all which is a big job.

    Yes you need to do SEO task regular basis.Otherwise your keywords rank may fall down. Because now Google changes algorithm frequently. If you want to maintain keyword rank in the first page then you need to do some white hat SEO task regular basis.

    I think it would be a great idea for you, especially if you want to beat out the competition in rankings and keywords. But, make sure the person you are hiring implements white hat tactics. Good luck with the hiring.

    Yes it does but it also need to have a lot of unique content and know who your audience is. If your blog or website is all set than SEO on-page or off-page will probably help a lot and I doubt it could hurt at all.
