SEO Consulting Services Los Angeles –

Some companies charge an arm and a leg for SEO consulting services. Sometimes consulting services can cost more money than the actually SEO service itself. If you want to perform your own search engine optimization, then you might need to consult with a professional for some guidance; but is it worth it?

When Should You Use SEO Consulting Services?

If you have some basic knowledge of SEO and just need help putting together a SEO strategy, then you should hire an consultant. A lot of SEO consultants will charge you $300/hour and the cost will add up quick if you don’t have any knowledge of SEO. If you know what you want and you just need help, then you’ll only require a few hours of help and you’ll save a lot of money.

If you decide to use a consultant, I think it’s better to consult over the phone. Face to face consulting is usually more expensive for you and the consultant. Consulting via email is also time consuming because the SEO consultant helping you has to keep re-reading your email to make sure he responds to all your questions. Then he has to proof read his email before he sends it, and it’s just a lengthy process. Consulting over the phone is usually quick and you could probably fit three consultations into an hour block which would only cost you $300.

SEO Consulting Services For Free

If you hire a company to perform SEO services for you, then they should include SEO consulting for free. As long as you don’t abuse the privilege, I don’t think you should be charged an extra fee to call a few times to ask for some tips. Answering a few emails shouldn’t be a big deal either as the person has already paid for services, so it’s just common courtesy.
