An SEO consultant can provide an invaluable service for a business of any size, whether your company is a small business, start-up, challenger brand or enterprise.<\/p>\n

The industry views consultants generally as experts brought in to focus on a short-term opportunity. Or they may focus on a company marketing initiative.<\/p>\n

Bruce Clay is a leading agency delivering SEO consulting and search marketing services since 1996. (Read about us<\/a> or see our case studies<\/a>.)<\/em><\/p>\n

What Is SEO Consulting?<\/h2>\n

SEO consulting includes services, tools and training from a search marketing specialist. This expert has demonstrated expertise, authority and industry-wide trust in search engine optimization.<\/p>\n

Consulting projects typically range from 3 to 6 months in duration. They are sometimes shorter or longer depending on the size of the campaign. Once the goal is reached, the company may address another short-term SEO opportunity or pivot to a new marketing initiative.<\/p>\n

In contrast, SEO services<\/a> tend to focus on longer term opportunities. As such, they range from 6 to many months, or even years. These types of SEO campaigns involve a higher level of marketing and consulting effort to achieve goals. An example might be the launch of an entirely new website to the market. Such a website has no rankings or traffic, and thus it has no recognized marketplace expertise, authority and trust.<\/p>\n

Every SEO consulting campaign is unique. No two projects are the same.<\/p>\n

The particular growth opportunity or issue you want to achieve with a consultant’s help determines the project scope.<\/p>\n
