Pay For Performance SEO - Putting Return Before Investment!

Traditionally, SEO companies base their prices around a 'time on task' model. One notable problem with this approach is time and effort do not necessarily equate to results or value. Pay For Performance SEO, on the other hand, is a value-based model that literally means you only pay when a predetermined result or milestone is reached.

How does Pay For Performance SEO Work?

1. Website Audit

The purpose of an audit is twofold. First it acts as gap analysis that assesses your websites actual performance (benchmark) and potential performance (campaign goals). This is an important step in identifying the SEO strategies and tactics required to move your website from where it is now to where you want it to be. This analysis is not restricted to your website, it is necessary to analyse the optimisation efforts of competitors in order to understand the level of optimisation required to compete effectively.

Secondly, the Audit identifies and addresses technical issues that could adversely impact the ability of search engines to spider, cache and categorise the pages that make up your website effectively. This involves an exhaustive analysis of hosting and server-side issues, canonical issues, problematic URL's, site architecture and navigational elements, Meta data, pagination, page structure, coding issues and back-links.

2. Strategy Document

First we create a strategy document that covers the project from end to end. The strategy document defines a unique set of Key Performance Indicators and quantifiable milestones that act as a road map leading to the successful achievement of your project goals. Milestones are specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and trackable.

There are many ways to quantify results, therefore there are many ways to strategise a pay-for-performance SEO project. Whether the goal is to improve rankings, sales, enquiries, opt-ins or whatever represents a successful outcome for you, that's what Pay for performance SEO ultimately delivers. The strategy document outlines a step by step program of work that explains in plain english the techniques and tactics that will be used and our reason for using them.

Is Your Website Suitable

Pay For Performance SEO represents incredible risk reversal. We take the risk, you pay for results. However, there are 2 quality checkpoints that have to be met in deciding whether your website is suitable for this Service.

Checkpoint 1: Domain Age

The domain must be a minimum of one year old. A website’s age helps search engines distinguish between throw-away domains used by spammers and legitimate businesses that are here for the long term. If your domain has only recently been registered, we may still be able to work with you if the registration was for five years or more.

Checkpoint 2: The Google Index

The pages that you wish to optimise must be indexed by Google. There could be many reasons why pages are not being indexed. Problematic URL's, poor site structure and navigation and a lack of back links are just a few of the issues that can cause spidering problems. This is a problem that can be easily resolved prior to commencing with the Pay For Performance SEO service
