Just a quick question for you seo professionals. If you are taking on a new client with a fresh basic site with no work having been carried out at all on the site, what would be the first thing to do? Would it be meta tags, descriptions, sitemap etc? or building 500 - 600 links? Install analytics? I am in a new business and struggling to understand this field!! Many thanks |

*sighs* you ask a sensible question and get sent on a trek. answer is - an SEO would discuss with you the needs of your website - This may include adding content and of course complimenting the metas titles to the content. they would also look at the coding making sure no major issues are the and that redirects are in place. After all this is done then you would look at link building and improving social impact your website is having - this involves blogs articles, facebook, twitter and video (if applicable). None of this should be done before onsite is dealt with. Please note: I have said this time and time again - If an SEO only concentrates on offsite without any regards for your onsite SEO walk away - they are building your SEO on Sand instead of Rock and when Google rains down its new algorithm 99% of the time your website will be washed away.

What exactly does your customer want their site to do. Are they prepared to wait whilst you do the SEO linkbuilding, directory submissions e.t.c. as this is a long term strategy and you will not see results overnight. If they are looking for quicker results then you need to go social. |

On-site and link building can be done simultaneously. If it's a small business on a small budget, I'd start with the metas and link building straight out of the gate. Then work on getting analytics and goal tracking set up. Finally, content and conversion rate optimisation would be looked at, a bit further down the road. Going from nowhere to top 5 rankings takes time, so get the clock ticking early by starting on the link work straight away! __________________.

Actually @Webgeek i have to disagree with you on the timeline - metas, H1'a and content and basically everything onsite must be done first - no point in linking to a site without them in place first - you would end up devaluing the inbound links effect. (unless i am mistaken in what you mean) |
