(1) What Is your link building strategy?
I am creative in coming up with content or angles to content and knowing the types of sites which will respond best to it. Due to this, I can produce very effective links that your competitors probably won’t have, won't want to invest the time/resources in, or even thought to acquire.
(2) What are your Relationship Building/Outreach Skills Like?
Most of my outreach is done via email, but if needed, we'll even get on the phone or a zoom call to get the link. And as I said above, I know just the right type of people to contact and I’m extremely good at adapting my email “voice” to the industry. I do not believe in sending thousands of spammy emails, as this is not necessary. My extremely fine-tuned prospecting and highly custom emails will usually render high-quality links.
(3) Is this content marketing?
I know the strategy well – produce great content and leverage it to get the right people to see your brand or product. But “content marketing” is just a buzz word for me, it’s the way SEO is normally meant to be done and doesn’t need any fancy words to dress it up.
(4) Do you know about recent Google Updates?
I keep up to date on the latest Google Algorithm changes, and I know it impacted a lot of people. However, with the way we do things, long term, these updates are a good thing, and help improve the rankings of our clients.
(5) Do you use Social Media Optimization?
I do believe in the power of Social Media, but since I’m one person and only have so much time in the day, I can’t offer this service.
I’m happy to offer some advice and guidance on it but can’t run any campaigns for you – however, you would be better running this part of your marketing yourself anyway, since you know your business and customers best.
(6) How much investment is needed? And what EXACTLY do I get?
My minimum is usually 10 links a month, but we may do a 5 link trial for select projects. This is the minimum I require for you to see any noticeable results from my link building.
My strategy can be time-consuming and intensive, so it may not seem like you get much, but remember, the end goal is always the same – driving effective traffic to your site to generate revenue.
(7) What tools do you use?
I use Moz and a few custom made items I created myself but the bulk of my work needs to be manual, in order to maintain quality.
(8) I know SEO is hit and miss, but what results can you predict from my investment and current position?
You only need a few well placed links to improve the rankings of any website. I can’t always guarantee, but first place (or close to it) is generally achievable.
(9) Any Guarantee? How do we measure results?
I cannot 100% guarantee anything. And nobody should ever guarantee, it's irresponsible to guarantee when you can’t see or control outside factors. But, here’s 2 guarantees:
(1.) Nothing will ever harm your site
(2. ) Everything is done with your business goals in mind.
(10) Why should I hire you?
Simply put, I’m probably one of the top few link builders in the country with regards to creativity and novel content ideas. Don’t cheat yourself out of giving your business the best.
