SEO UK Can Improve Your Potential
Posted in Blogging on 12. Mar, 2010
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?
That said, how do you GET a great writer? Well… Read on…
Rates
Ideally, you shouldn’t be paying more than a few cents a word, though for certain projects such as academics and eBooks, you might be spending just a bit more, and that’s not unreasonable. If you’re paying a penny a word, you have to understand that you’re probably sacrificing quality just to save a couple bucks. Good writers can afford to charge just a bit more because they know they’re good. Lousy writers can’t afford to charge more than a penny a word.
Read some Samples
There are foreign copy writing companies that don’t hire anyone who speaks English at all, much less someone who speaks it well. If you want to pay bottom dollar for your writing, you may as well copy and paste pages out of the dictionary and throw some keywords in there, because the finished result will be about as coherent and sell your product just as well as these spam-speak articles will. So read the samples, put them through copyscape and make sure they qualify as good web content.
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.
Reviews
Always look for references. Look for recommendations to see which dogs are the top of the food chain. While you’re at it, feel free to remember the places you got those recommendations so that you can give the writers a positive (or negative) review based on your experiences working with them.
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
You might not be one hundred percent satisfied with the first pass. Most companies will offer one or two rewrites. A company that doesn’t offer any sort of rewrites at all is one you want to stay away from. It’s a given that the writer isn’t psychic and might not be able to know exactly what you’re going for, and it’s not uncommon that you have to bang the kinks out a bit here and there, so look for a company that takes enough pride in their work that they’ll be willing to have another go at it if you’re not completely satisfied.
The Pay
Half up front, half at the end, or, pay in thirds. These are the only real payment plans you can trust with most SEO companies. A business that wants it all up front… Well, you’re taking something of a risk if it’s a larger project.
