    Holy shit, I need to learn this. My clients are starting to demand these services, and since I can't do it, they look to outside firms.

    I have a client who I charged $6k to redesign their site on WP. They hired an SEO firm who's charging them $18k in the first year for SEO. And every time I deal with them, I hear shit that doesn't sound right. So I google it, look it up on forums, and find out that they're full of shit.

    The problem I have with learning SEO is that everything starts with this really rudimentary lessons about HTML and how Google works. So I try to find something a bit more advanced and end up with stuff that's beyond me.

    Anyone have some good checklists?

    • you're probably not aware but as seo is very competative and transparent your seo company is most likely putting a lot of effort into defensive seo...trooperbill
    • ..meaning if it gets independently audited its clean. otherwise the client gets bombarded with calls pointing out sometimes insignificant 'gaps' in the SEOtrooperbill
    • It's the monthly costs that are the killer. Nice cash flow for some companies.formed
    • same as any other marketng company - nothings cheap and you get what you pay for,.trooperbill
