An SEO consultant is an expert in search engine optimization or the methods that improve a website page’s ranking on Google, Bing, ect. When a web user enters specific keywords into a search engine, it is SEO that decides which pages pop up first.

75% of web users will never scroll past the first page on Google search, that’s why it’s so important for businesses to rank on page 1 of Google.

Whether you are hiring a local SEO consultant or an SEO company, you need to do your research and make sure you are hiring an actual SEO expert. After all, you don’t want to end up with someone who went to one training workshop or a weekend conference and now claims to be a so-called “expert” or “specialist.”

You will be hard-pressed to find any freelance SEO specialist in Canada or even North America with as much hands-on experience.

Yes, I guarantee keyword placement improvements but I can’t guarantee that you will be on the first page right away. Google algorithms can not be gamed or bought. Hence there is no way to physically guarantee #1 results or even first page results within a specific time frame. That being said, an experienced SEO expert can guestimate with good accuracy a timeline in which you can expect results.

The one thing that should be guaranteed when working with any local SEO consultant in Ottawa is monthly link-building deliverables. With every package, clients should clearly understand what to expect regarding the number of links we will build each month. If you are unsure what your current SEO expert is doing each month for your budget or aren’t getting detailed monthly link-building reports, get in touch with Ryan.

Every SEO campaign starts with a benchmark keyword ranking report to analyze the current positions. Then, you will get monthly keyword ranking reports with results tracked weekly or bi-weekly, depending on the campaign’s size.

A fully detailed and 100% transparent link-building report is delivered each month for every client regardless of the budget with a list of links built. The report includes live URL, anchor text, targeted URL, Page Authority, Domain Authority and Trust Flow (the three most popular SEO metrics) for every single link built within the month for the campaign.
