A day in the Life of a Seo Consultant
by Stefan D. We provide custom solutions, software development, Working in the field of optimizing a website can mean a lot of things, but it’s definitely never boring! If you are new to the industry and wondering what your daily activities should look like, consider the following guidelines on how a good SEO specialist structures their workdays:Build and monitor link links
Since link creation plays such a vital role in the success of a website, all SEO consultants try
to make this practice a part of their daily routine. The only exception to this rule appears in
the big SEO agencies, in which consultants are specialized in dealing with different aspects
of the SEO process—whether it is content creation, site optimization, link creation or another
element of the digital marketing process.
In all other cases, SEO consultants are constantly looking for new opportunities to create
links, reading industry blogs to find new link building ideas, or following existing links to
monitor and correct changes to a website’s “backlink” profile.
Education and community interactions
As the internet marketing industry is constantly changing, continuing education is an
important part of any working day. In most cases, this takes the form of examining blogs in
the industry to keep up to date with any major changes in recently discovered SEO
algorithms or techniques.
At the same time, SEO consultants can leave comments on these articles, post messages in
community forums or ask questions on social media sites. These techniques not only help to
expand the knowledge of an SEO consultant , but are also excellent to build a reputation and
a high level of authority in an industry.
Testing SEO theories
SEO consultants put seo theories into practice on their websites to conclusively determine
what is good and what does not work at any given time. Because Google and the other
search engines never fully reveal all their secrets (and because not all the tips found on
blogs in the industry are legitimate or reliable), a good SEO consultant knows that he will
discover the truth about the components that determine the ranking of a website in a good
position in searches, just by himself experimenting with the settings and theories discovered.
Track leaderboards, traffic, and conversion rates
Probably the most boring part of any day of an SEO consultant is the time spent tracking
traffic and conversion rate values. A good SEO consultant is based on complete data sets
and unfortunately there are really no shortcuts when it comes to compiling and analyzing
these figures.
But no matter how dizzying this data collection may be, SEO consultants admit that it is of
vital importance. Staying high on even minor declines in web data trends can help SEO
consultants eliminate potentially serious problems by taking corrective action before the
search engine’s serious penalties can be assessed.
Optimization on the site
Optimization on the site never ends. No matter how many code corrections, content
changes, or image updates an SEO consultant makes, there will always be new elements to
optimize and others that can be better optimized.
For this reason, many agencies will expand their team of SEO analysts before developing
any other part of their companies, especially given that changes to the elements on the site
often lead to the fastest improvements in the performance of a site. Unlike backlinks, which
can take time to index and capitalize, changes on the site can make a significant difference
in how well search engines can read a website, making these changes a top priority for any
SEO consultant—based on agency or otherwise.
Monitoring of competitors
Paying attention to the changes made on the websites of competitors offers a number of
advantages to SEO consultants. Careful monitoring of a competitor’s backlink profile can
expose the weaknesses of the company’s strategy, which allow the SEO consultant to
outperform his opponent in searches. For example, if a competitor’s linking link chart does
not present evidence of connection with social media marketing,focusing on this strategy
could provide an advantage from an SEO point of view necessary to achieve higher natural
search rankings.
At the same time, monitoring the activities of a competitor can reveal information about new
strategies that work or not. Monitoring of both internal websites and competitors’ pages can
take a long time, but a good SEO consultant knows that there is a lot of quality information to
gain if they are willing to make efforts.
Collaboration with internal development, design and marketing teams
Today, SEO is more than just backlinks and optimization on the site. A good SEO campaign
requires collaboration with development teams (to ensure that a website’s code works
optimally from an SEO point of view), with marketing teams (to identify any branding
elements that should be used appropriately on the site), and with design teams (to improve
product sales pages and create a stronger on-site user experience).
As a result, all SEO consultants have to spend time collaborating with the relevant parties,
either with internally employed colleagues, or by setting up meetings with customer service
departments. Although these activities remove from the working time of an SEO consultant,
they are important, as they can eventually lead to a more powerful website that better
attracts both site visitors and search engines.
Just like anyone who works online knows that there is never a shortage of email messages
to check. From customer communications to internal company updates and from industry
newsletters to social media profile notifications, all SEO consultants spend at least part of
their day checking and responding to emails.
Socialization
Spending time connecting with other industry consultants isn’t just important for SEO
consultants who belong to agencies, who often rely on these occasional contacts to create
new businesses and learn new techniques by “talking on breaks” with each other.
As an added bonus, going out on breaks and socializing with other consultants can be one
of the easiest ways to build bonds ever. I can’t tell you how many table outings we’ve turned
into powerful, high-value link links.
Conclusion
Whether you use this list to think about whether a job in SEO is right for you, be aware that
your daily activities will vary slightly depending on the management structure in your
organization. Indeed, there may be certain days when you focus solely on site optimization
and others where you totally focus on link-building campaigns.
However, this sketch should give you a better idea of the responsibilities that SEO
consultants have—no matter where and how they work. I hope you find it useful when it
comes to working more effectively with these important members of the team!
