subject: Seo Uk : Increase Your Profits [print this page] It goes without saying that you want a native English speaking writer for your SEO work. So when you go with an SEO UK or US company how do you decide who to hire?
Okay, that's fine and all, but... How do you choose the right company? Read on...
Word Rates
Most qualified SEO companies will charge you two or three cents a word. Some projects may require a bit more or a bit less, but typically, a company charging less than a penny a word... Well, you'll get exactly what you pay for. The good companies can afford to charge a bit more than the rest since they offer the best quality results, whereas a lousy writer can't really move far up from the food chain from a half a cent per word.
Read some Samples
Don't even think of handing over a plug nickel until you've seen a few writing samples. Read them over and make sure they're coherent and easy to read. Look for obvious typos, and put the article through copyscape to double check and make sure it wasn't plagiarized. Basically just cover all your bases and make absolutely certain that they can offer you good results. Remember, your reputation is attached to the web content you put on the internet, so don't settle for bad writing.
Emails
You'll be doing business via email, so you'll want to see how they conduct themselves there. Are they polite and courteous? Can they give you straight answers to all your questions? If they can barely write a legible email, chances are they can't write SEO too good, neither. Look for well written emails if you want well written articles.
Recommendations
Read some reviews online of various writing companies and see who comes out on top. You want to make sure you're working with a company with a long history of satisfied clientele.
Project Type
Every company really has its own specialty. Most will do SEO articles, but if you want something else done, you need to look for a company that specializes in exactly what you want done, be it eBooks, ghost writing, blogs, whatever it is, find a company that knows that side of the business better than anyone.
Rewrites
Most qualified companies will offer a plan that includes two or three rewrites in the package. This isn't because their writers are no good, it's because there's never a guarantee that the first article will be one hundred percent satisfactory. So make sure that, whoever you hire, they're willing to do a rewrite or two in order to get you exactly what you want. Look all around, look for samples of every type, and find a company that knows every angle of what you want done.
The Pay
Typically, you pay half up front, and half upon completion, or else you pay in thirds. You probably don't want to go with a company that has you paying everything up front before they've shown you any work.
