How to Spot Shady SEO Providers

I've just launched a new YouTube channel!! The concept? I take real businesses struggling to stand the f*ck out, provide my positioning/branding/lead gen help, and record it all for YouTube. The first mini-series features three freelance marketers (copywriter Rob, ecommerce designer Laura, and non-fiction book coach Vicky).I hope you'll set aside half an hour to watch it through. Maybe with your morning coffee? Or lunch break? Or evening onion soup? And then, the usual "Subscribe, Like, Share" would go a long, long way too.https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdNXaHHVnVntg5gpveB-5_Q***This week I’m talking to Gavin Duff, Head of Digital Performance for the Irish-based digital agency, Friday.The world of search engine optimization (SEO) is full of shady people and practices and it’s much more difficult than you might think to actually rank well on Google.Today Gavin will teach us three main things: how to uncover shady SEO practices; how to spot shady SEO practitioners and avoid them; and what to do if you’ve been burned by one.With nearly 15 years of digital experience working for companies such as Dannon, Heineken, Mazda, Dominos Pizza, AXA Insurance, Amazon, and many more, he is a great person to learn from.Topics covered:Defining SEO and how it’s doneThe damage bad SEO can have on a businessWhat good SEO looks like versus red flagsHow to spot bad SEO practitioners and avoid themHow to evaluate SEO hires and what it should costWhat to do if you’ve been burnedGavin’s advice and recommended resourcesResources mentioned:Friday; Friday JournalBuzzSumoSearchCapMoz; Moz’s Beginner’s Guide to SEOGoogle [email protected]***→ Buy my book: book.stfo.io→ Watch my YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdNXaHHVnVntg5gpveB-5_Q→ Take my 60-second quiz: stfo.io/q→ See my pretty face on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/louisgrenier/→ Leave a review on Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3p4wL4r→ Leave a review on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7iEF1qovZZiaP1iRtxGARo🐔
