Why do I need to someone for this? Can I do it myself?
I'll keep this short by giving you a point of relevance. If you hire someone to do your taxes or accounting, then you should hire a search engine optimization company. You should read the following short: Ugh! Why is SEO sooooooo expensive?
Who chooses the keywords? Will you provide keywords or do I provide those myself?
Because we realize you may find it difficult to determine the best key terms and phrases for which your site should be optimized, our search engine optimization team will work with you to select the keywords applicable for your site. Before initializing your project, our team will thoroughly analyze your business and your competitor's websites. Based on our findings and your input, our team will create an initial list of keywords which after further research analysis will help our team arrive at a list of keywords which we will submit for [your] approval. Upon approval, our search engine optimization team will begin optimizing your website based on those keywords.
Do you only select keywords which are not very competitive?
Our keyword development team uses various keyword research tools to find keywords that are popular among your target audience. Our team selects keywords on the basis of their popularity without regard to "competitiveness" (i.e., if there is a keyword which is popular and which is relevant to your site, we will select that keyword even if that term or phtrase is very competitive). What we do not do is select single word keywords. Our team only selects multiple word keywords as they are the best converting.
Do you optimize my website or do you optimize a different website which is owned by you?
Generally speaking, we offer two programs. Wherever we provide services based on clicks (pay-per-click or pay-for-traffic), the domain / website will be owned by us. For all other programs, we will be optimizing your doamin / website.
What types of websites will you not service?
We do not optimize websites dealing with adult content, get-rich-quick schemes or illegal activities (i.e., hacking, cracking, warez, etc.).
