3 <strong>Signs</strong> <strong>You’ve</strong> <strong>Picked</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Right</strong> <strong>SEO</strong> <strong>Agency</strong><br />

If you’re looking for Melbourne search engine optimisation services,<br />

you’ll probably know <strong>the</strong> vast selection of choices you have before you.<br />

Ranging from large international providers to small boutique agencies and<br />

everything in between, <strong>the</strong>re is no right or wrong answer.<br />

For over ten years, Newpath web has seen search engine optimisation<br />

services become more and more popular. As a full-service digital agency, we<br />

think we know what we’re talking about when we say, regardless of <strong>the</strong><br />

company you work with, you should see <strong>the</strong> following three elements to<br />

know that you’ve made <strong>the</strong> right choice with your service provider.


Communication<br />

Beyond anything, when it comes to your search engine optimisation<br />

provider, you want to see solid and comprehensive communication. The<br />

first week of a campaign is vital to ensure that you as an organisation are<br />

aware of what is requiredregarding both technical information (various<br />

logins and accesses), communication processes (approvals) and<br />

responsibilities.<br />

If you don’t have <strong>the</strong>se from your service provider, have a chat with <strong>the</strong>m<br />

and push for this information yourself. While it’s not ideal to be chasing<br />

this up, at least if <strong>the</strong>y can provide information, everything will be back on<br />

track. It is important to note that providers may not choose to<br />

communicate on a significantly frequent basis, with monthly reporting<br />

processes interspersed with small adjustments <strong>the</strong> norm.<br />

Reporting<br />

A critical sign to look for is clear and concise reporting practices. <strong>SEO</strong><br />

companies will typically hide behind <strong>the</strong>ir reporting to obscure less than<br />

satisfactory results, or worse, to hide a lack of work. Yes, it’s true: providers<br />

that don’t report <strong>the</strong>ir work may be under delivering what was promised.<br />

Critically for organisations that are hiring <strong>SEO</strong> providers, <strong>the</strong>y must review<br />

reports and seek to understand <strong>the</strong> information provided. Of course,<br />

discussing <strong>the</strong> information with <strong>the</strong> provider is also important, but if <strong>the</strong>re<br />

is limited reporting or complex elements, without clarification, it can<br />

become a more significant issue.<br />

Slow Progression<br />

Don’t get me wrong; <strong>SEO</strong> companies are hired to deliver results, but it is<br />

fundamental to note that even if your site has been optimised previously,<br />

working with a new agency is at least a two-month process before any<br />

significant results can be achieved. After that even, it is unrealistic to expect<br />

significant improvements month-on-month. While we’re looking for net<br />

growth across all targeted keywords, progress needs to be steady and ongoing.<br />

Sharp jumps or declines are not as much of an issue as some might<br />

expect. <strong>SEO</strong> is a long-term process; anyone that promises you o<strong>the</strong>rwise<br />

doesn’t know what <strong>the</strong>y’re talking about when it comes to real progress to<br />

be made.
