How Do I Start An SEO Agency?

Starting your own business can be both exciting and daunting. And launching your own startup is an adrenaline rush that comes with its own sense of power and freedom. But if you don’t know what you’re doing, the experience can be more stressful and anxiety-inducing than liberating.

No matter what kind of business you are diving into, it is best to do your research and be prepared for the challenges. The same goes for starting an SEO (search engine optimization) company. You want a fully fleshed-out idea, business plan, and potential customers lined up. So, if you’re planning on building an SEO company from scratch, consider the tips below to guide you through the process.

Learn About Digital Marketing

If you are going to start a business, then you need to become an expert or authority figure on that subject. Learn as much as you can about SEO strategy, content marketing, keyword research, and social media. Plenty of resources and materials are available online about the world of SEO. You might also consider taking a course in online marketing and SEO strategy to boost your knowledge. With enough research and study, you’ll soon be able to join the cohort of SEO experts out there!

Choose A Niche

Establish who you want to offer SEO services to and market your brand to that clientele. Instead of painting your business with a broad brush, identify a specific market you want to cater to — that could be educators, realtors, medical professionals, or anyone really! When deciding on your target audience, consider industries you have established relationships with or expert-level knowledge in.

In addition to identifying your potential customers, establish what kind of SEO services you plan to offer. You may decide to just start out focusing on SEO strategy and keyword search and then branch out to other areas of online marketing such as social media, web design or development, blog writing, email marketing, and digital-advertising services like pay-per-click (PPC).

Consider Outsourcing Services

When starting a new SEO agency, you might be under the misconception that you need to build an in-house team of SEO experts. Not only is that not true, but hiring lots of employees might end up being a waste of time, money, and effort. Instead, delegate certain SEO services to a whiteSEO company like WhiteLabelSEOReseller. White label SEO service providers are SEO companies that provide you with services you can then market under your own brand.

These services could be link building, PPC, reputation management, and content creation like writing blog or social media posts. Partnering with a white label SEO reseller program will take the pressure off of your team while still giving your customers the value and services they expect. You might feel overwhelmed to coordinate a staff capable of providing every aspect of online marketing — especially when starting out as a new SEO company. And that’s where SEO resellers come in to help. Remember, you can’t do it all as a digital marketing agency.

Build A Website

Lastly, any good business needs a website. You want a specific place you can point to and promote your SEO services. Choose a domain name that fits with your brand and then host that name on a web hosting site. Once that’s done, choose a website platform like WordPress, SquareSpace, or Wix. What’s great about these platforms is they offer website templates you can use to set up your website (so if you’re not a designer, no need to worry there!). Once you have your website set up, you can start marketing your business.
